BIG ISLAND HI Thread

Theres a set of swayaways for tundras for $150 on cl.

 

Finally got some of that snow!

 

Saw a mean vid of someone jumping a snowboard over the road up there on Mauna Kea. Can't find a link though, shitty.

 

I got some of that snow too! anyone else went up this past weekend?

 

I was hoping they would open Mauna Kea access road earlier. By the time they opened it I was already on the plane back to Oahu. Went up Mauna Loa on Saturday instead, my first time up there.

 

When did you go up? I was up Sunday evening

 

it's all over instagram. im not sure how to link it, heets07 and hawaiilife2015.
I borrowed this pic from the 2nd one.

 

I ended up going mauna loa on saturday and broke my front diff fkn around. spent the day over there and wish I went mauna kea on sunday. toyotas….toyotas everywhere. lol

 

Actually never have that much when I went up I thought they were coming down from mauna loa

 

Yeah that's it.
Funny, before I left home the Police had to have American made vehicles. Funny seeing the blue cans on Nissans and 4Runners.

 

there was a ton on saturday up mauna loa. didnt get to go sunday but had choke friends.
and a friend had to go rescue a duramax that night with a broken tie rod end. lol

 

I didnt know they had a rule to only use american. I was only aware that it had to have atleast 6cylinders and automatic. then certain safety items got adopted over the years, things like abs.
Im kinda on the younger side, but I do remember early 90s 4runners/pathfinders as personal cop vehicles. I remember the mid90s camry as a cop car. In the movie Beyond Paradise, they have a white early 90s 4runner.

 

I left in '98 and I think at that point I only saw one 4Runner cop car.

Cops all had American back then, not sure they could have a V6. All I remember were Monte Carlos, Mustangs, Z28s, etc. So of course us delinquents out in our Hondas and VWs were leary of any muscle car headlights in our rearview lol.

 

I had to get pulled out of some snow and dirt by one of the parking lots. Even my locker and 2Lo couldn't get me out. Was just spinning tires. I gotta get my exhaust rerouted so I can get that driveshaft back on

Oh rajah…always had for personal cars. Special duty they can use pretty much whatever. My moms 3rd gen runner was my uncles vehicle that he outfitted for work, but ofcourse rarely used it.

I love fast cars and spending nights having fun out there…so I know what you mean. It carries on to lifted trucks and wide tires. Just gotta watch my back.

 

bwaahahahah I dont wanna be that guy. But I do admit, I did have to get yanked twice. welded rear end just puts me sideways.

 

Lol it could've been you minus the low range

 

Hahah, funny thing is…4low makes it worse. Not fun with wet roads and swampers. The other week ago I was just sitting at a stop light in the rain.

Soon ill pull it apart and swap that welded 3rd out

 

i was up there sunday evening too. got up at around 6ish. stayed till dark trying to load up my truck so i could stop and drop off some snow for my mom them. i went mauna loa last week saturday. never have to much snow but it was my first time up so it was pretty cool.
