    Wow that looks really awful. :eek:


    I'm planning on doing a pretty high budget build but I also have 3-4 off a week so I plan on doing lots of trips because I have the time.

    I wheeled with him last time in Hollister. He has more light than anyone I've seen. I don't care what people do to their own vehicles, but I was a bit upset to find out he doesn't have a job, but is on unemployment. Just kind of pissed me off that he can do nothing all day yet have a lot nicer 4runner than mine. O well he was a really nice guy and I have nothing against him or his choice in mods.

    I'll start with a Full Icon setup and most likely the S2 add on. Coming from full LT front and rear suspension is my thing lol

    Build a set of sliders
    Buy full skids
    RTT
    ARB Fridge
    ARB front bumper
    CBI Rear
    Lockers

    and other misc goodies along the way. I have a feeling it would be around a year or year and a half for the build to be complete. Looking to spend around $15k-$20k on top of vehical cost.

    too many lights for sure.

    I asked him a few weeks ago on our trip and he said he is unemployed. Maybe he did have a job when he funded it all.

    Yeah I'm excited. I need to finish the truck now so I can post her up for sale and then start the new project. I went to the Overland Expo this last weekend and gave me some ideas and showed me stuff I didn't want as well that I thought I did at first.

    I definitely need a new roof rack so I can properly mount my 42". I have it slapped on my roof right now. Not a fan of how it looks and rattles

    I pride myself on destroying trails with minimal armor. Some say I'm an idiot, but look who has an extra $1,000 in their pocket!
