    I don't feel so bad about the shitty mileage I am getting seeing others are getting close to what I am with taller tires. Last tank average was 12.5mpg. All my driving is short trips and cold starts,hopefully warmer weather will improve the mileage. Before the switch to winter blend and cold temps I was getting about 17.

    I can't help that runners are far superior to Tacos...
    I mean, do you have heated mirrors? Heated wipers? Sunroof? Power seat? And actual shifter for 4x and not those silly push buttons? OEM Pneumatic hood struts?

    Yeah I saw that. Can't decide if I want to go to it or not. I'm somewhat burned out on the "Instagram overlander" culture lately. Depending on the vendors that show up, it's cheap enough that I might just get a day pass and walk through it.

    Any event you have to pay to go see isn't worth it imo. Plus one if the bug points is to get away from people when I go camping. I don't want to be surrounded by a bunch of wanna be "overland" guppies.

    Getting sick of how it's the new word for an old idea and practice.

    Would rather just do a montana tacoma meet. They don't usually do a lot of trail runs during those events.

    I don't think it could be said better than this.
