    As soon as the temperature cuts out that three digit nonsense. I'll be going full bore in the fall though.

    Have a buddy visiting from California in two weeks, he just discovered camping and really wants to go over the weekend when he's here.

    My boy is about to discover the joys of trying to sleep through a sweat-soup night.

    Sheesh people over here arguing over OEM suspension and tires and hyperfocus on a locker that, unless you're out having fun, most won't need for awhile. By the time you need a locker you probably upgraded everything that's different between a locker and non locker vehicle

    Take him down to Sam Houston national forest, the horse flies really give the full experience.


    If he survives, anyway.

    No it’s not. Because it’s not a TRD Offroad. Yours is good at football, and hockey, and badminton. Why is this so difficult for some people?!

    Might teach him the old trick of making ice packs out of two small towels, one for the neck and one for the nuts. But only if he brings his own gear. He ain't dipping his ball towel into my cooler.

    Love those piney woods. Went to school in deep east TX.

    I would say it’s 20% tires as well. The tires my off road came with were not any good at being off road.

    I stayed in the Piney Woods as a kid at my uncle's cabin. I learned to water ski on Lake Livingston. Fond memories!

    Can't say I ever noticed any whine in the hybrid Ford Fusion I rented about a year ago. 47 MPG over the course of 1500 miles was nice too. 2x the range of my truck at the time despite 10 gallons less fuel capacity.

    Mostly just laugh at those who feel the need to go out of their way to get a fake hood scoop.
