Thinking about buying this (first link), mounting it in the bed of my truck, plugging into the bed socket or my power box, then pumping water out of the 5gal jug I haul around? Is there any beneficial reason to have a smaller tubing besides a regular water hose width for pressure with these? I see most of the car kits (Second link) have a smaller diameter hose. I have everything (Hose, Nozzle, Clamps) already so I have no need to buy the premade kit unless I should go with a smaller hose.

Anyone know what kind of Land cruiser this is? Was up in the Redwoods on northern CA coast a few weeks ago, didn't get a chance to talk to the guy. Needless to say I was envious.

(I know not the best pic, just had to snap one real quick as we were leaving)

 

I am very familiar with this gas station. Although I prefer the one across the street for whatever reason.

The mexican place up the street La Veracruzana is pretty good as well.

Semi-related to that specific Arby's: "I have the meats" is code between me and my friend for "I am about to ruin the interior of your car" after this weekend.

 

It's a series 78 troopie (troop carrier) model that they are doing conversions on in Australia and Germany I think, find one and do something sneaky to get it registered in the us and you could have one too....for about $80k AD, that's just the conversion.

 

70 Series ute.

 

Yeah, I'd go to La Veracruzana. I was happy the lone grocery store in Green River had block ice, seems to be hard to find these days. I don't trust this Eurovan fridge so much, block ice as backup with a foam cooler is fine with me, I have room.

 

Yall ever read about this road? I knew about it from being stationed in alaska, used to hear stories about guys trying it in late summer and them having to go back next summer to recover vehicles out

Northern AZ

 

For the sake of my relationship status, thank God the 79 isn't offered In the US.

 

It will be shortly

 

The 79 or an update landcruiser Ute?

 

The 79. I am gonna import a few while doing some work in albury NSW

 

HAHAHA Come out of the RTT

 

From the other side, to prove it is in fact in the middle of nowhere...

 

How do you plan to bypass the 25 year old exemption?

 

That's only in some states.

 

As long as the safety equipment will pass, it will be fine in rual areas

 

Interesting, it was my understanding that federal regulations applied in all fifty states.
