    The usual
    It took some rock stacking and few bumps, but he did. Everyone got stuck on that one even solid axle rigs with 38s, so this 4runner with IFS and 33s did amazing

    In case someone is looking for a battery setup for their fridge.

    I did a bunch a reviews and research for about a year.

    I saw a deal at Costco for a Mossimo brand...I was like ehhhhh....didn’t get my attention.

    a few days prior the Memorial weekend’s camping trip I saw a pretty damn good deal at Costco. ECO Flow River Pro 600 (720ah) for $429 with free shipping. Or $699 with an extra add on battery pack boosting the pow wow to a whopping 1440ah.

    With Costco’s return policy, it’s a no brainer. Unfortunately it did not arrive on time for my trip. Ordered on Wednesday and arrived Saturday before end of day.

    Now for the meat and potatoes. Out of the box I charged that baby up within 1.5 hours. This fast charging feature works like a charm is is legit.

    I plugged my ARB Zero 47QT into the battery pack. Set the temp at 32 degrees and left it in the garage.

    I got a solid 31 hours of non stop runtime with an average draw of 40 watt draw while the fridge is running.

    I am satisfied and happy with this purchase. I’m glad I didn’t spend $699+ for similar battery packs that are out in the market.

    Rightfully so! I once stuck my hand inside a water shut off valve box and ended up with 3 black widows on my hand. None of them got me but I think I had diahrrea for like a week from fear. :p

    I'd rather see you on a trail and then we'd have 2 first gens on 35s with more taco boxes than marlin crawler has in a year.

    Bike rocks, super clean with some blemishes here and there but it's the first year of the generation of 06-17 so it's fuel injected with ride by wire and a slipper clutch which is very nice. I just don't ride any more like I did when I was in monterey. Idk if someone bites ill sell it but I'm not in a huge hurry, it's a good emotional boost because I keep forgetting how fast it is but I wanna marry my girl and do something nice for her so it'll help with the wedding and if family pays more for the wedding then I'll put it to the honey moon and if that doesn't work then I tried and will be selfish and get a crawl box and put the rest towards tons with no regrets.

    I picked up one of those bluetti eb70 with their 100$ off coupon. The one you got was my (very) close second choice.

    Do you guys prefer to run Toyota fluid for the power steering? or would a fluid from the vatozone be ok? What about the coolant? For the wifes old lexus I grabbed a red coolant and it worked fine.

    tank and the runner are coming up for a full fluid over haul
