The Lair

Pretty dang close.

 

Oh I guess I meant queen valley. Same same, but different. We were in this area.

 

If it wasn't hot as balls there during the summer. I would consider retiring to that area in a few years! lol

 

Yeah, these summers are brutallll

 

Merry belated Christmas to my Lair homies! Been a crazy few days around here!

 

Merry christmas to you and yours as well! Crazy in a good or bad way?

 

Good, I guess. Just been super busy running around, seeing family, etc.

 

And you thought being a GQ model would be easy

 

Happy New Year’s homies!

 

It has been a long few days here. Kiddos have been super sick. Especially my youngest
He has been to the Dr 3 times in the last two weeks and is on his second round of antibiotics to clear up a nasty ear infection. Somewhere along the way he picked up a gastrointestinal virus...I have been puked on more in the last three days than I care to count. And he has given it to everyone now...I have been flat in bed since Friday with a temp of 103...oldest woke up with a stomach ache and headache this morning and promptly started puking...such a crappy way to kick off the new year...

But Happy New Year to the rest of you misfits!!!

 

More exploring and camping in the tonto national forest.

 

for 4runner build

 

Word on the street is that it is getting bobbed, toob dawrz, swingout & toob bumpers

 

This.

 

Now that I'm starting to see just how much land there is to explore and camp, I've gotten the itch to do some things to it. I have no desire to wheel it, so no armor, but would love better suspension for increased comfort/less shock fade, a lightweight wedge rtt, and on board air to make airing up easier. Even airing down to 20 psi, these roads are a bit choppy and near the end of the driving, I think I was getting some shock fade because the truck was riding like shit. We covered about 25 miles overall, with 18 being on the first day.

 

Or just sell this 4runner and get a raptor because then I could have the bike in the back and go do some exploring, camp, and ride from camp.

 

Shoulda kept the Tundra....

 

Yeah, maybe. I do miss that truck, it was just overkill for what I need. The 4runner is awesome for most everything I need to do, I'm just really good at picking stuff apart and finding stuff "wrong" to justify buying more fun things lol

 

They are great at hauling bikes!

 

Ranger raptor is cheaper than my Bronco. Kinda have a little buyers remorse because a Ranger Raptor with a GFC would have given me more storage and tow capacity and still cost less than the Bronco. But I still need to see how the interior space is in the back seat.
