Calling all Toyota owners in the Lynchburg and Charlottesville and surrounding areas!

Can't really tell, but we climbed up a steep hill, had to do some sleigh riding like I was 8 years old again lol

 

Yeah, I'd say it couldn't hurt. Is it coming out of another Taco?


Also, I can't give TOO much insight, being as this is my first Optima.

 

he had it in his land rover.

 

so the wife and i talked last night about the tire situation, I decided that I will just wait until I get to Florida to get tires but as soon as the F-5s are available again in matte black I'm getting them. For right now I will just continue to do little things here and there. Contacted uniden today about the

$158 bearcat980 uniden BEARCAT 980 40- channel SSB CB radio with sideband NOAA weatherband,7- color digital display PA/CB switch and noise cancelling mic, wireless mic compatible

bearcat980 cb radio and a handheld scanner. Hopefully they can give me a military discount.

 

jumping on that wet okole group buy. was going to get all of my seats covered for $443.60 plus shipping but think I might just do the front seats for $264.40 plus shipping. then I'm looking into buying a seat heater kit. I don't like the wet okole one since you have to plug it into a 12v source.

 

Check this out. I've been following this guy on Instagram for a while now and just saw his article on expedition portal. Badass tacoma

that's awesome. 8 months to make, I wish he would give a rough estimate of cost. I'd love to have something like that.

 

yeah its pretty sweet. i know there is a company that makes similar ones that you just put in the bed rather than having to make a flat bed. i forgot who though. i know a member on here has one on their silver access cab but i dont remember who.

 

How does that guy afford that? Does he work?

 

i googled the place that made his (fourwheelcampers.com) they start at $13k but have a shell with nothing in it for $7k then a list of stuff you add to build it up.

 

That's a good question actually. I have no idea

Damn I don't even know what a good price would be. It sounds good. Was that with the flat bed?

 

no all of them had beds, and the door into the camper is at the rear where the tailgate is.

 

i just looked them up. they dont look as nice as his. the other brand ive seen looks a lot nicer though

 

I feel like if I was gonna do somethin like this, I'd plan it out and custom build it myself. I like the colapsable roof peice but it seems like you migh be able to build it to spec and have them add that. Just looked like there was a lot of space left to be used.

 

I'm starting to think you want to build your own stuff...

 

Also, you guys want to throw some input in on this thread? It's pretty vague, I know.

Haha, maybe just a little.... I've been lookin at welding classes and tryin to find the best price, then as soon as I can get a decent welder it'll be crazy fab time!

 

Holy. HELL.

That is such an awesome beast - I'd kill to have a rig like that. Judging by the hippie he appears to be, I'd say he probably is a trust fund kid. Call me a hater/cynical, but there is no one way someone could afford that living on the road and (assuming) working part time in the places where he stops long enough to do so.

Any further speculation into how he funds that lifestyle aside, it's just plain sick!!

 

Hey fellas haven't been on in awhile. My iphone broke and had to order a new one and should be here tomorrow but even worse thing happened today. I had some dumbass pull out in front of me and we had a head on collision for those of you who know lynchburg it was on Greenview going up to the light. He f***** up my bumper pretty good and my turn signal is gone and now my front left tire and wheel are toast it got pushed back into the wheel well. Have it at the body shop and gotta get to work ASAP.







Pictures aren't all that great but will get more tomorrow during the day. This blows.

 

Seriously fuck Greenview.


Also, insurance? Maybe get some goodies from it?
