South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I paid $700 for this 2021 ARE. All the other ones on Facebook are $2500+
Between taking dogs with to work, and hauling stuff to and from Ohio to visit my wife and son… this will work just fine for me. Still about the same fuel mileage.

 

Damn! I’m jelly!

 

I’ll sell it for $2000 lol

 

Only if it was color matched.

 

my wife hates camper shells… but I like them. So convenient.

 

Fixed. Clean for 2 hours.

 

Trail Teams? I like the hood vinyl

 

No Sir, just the base model with all the goodies. Got the vinyl from Crawlerado and tossed it on.

 

I drove the FJ (Steve maybe?) from SouthEast Overland had back in the day… it was a fun vehicle to drive around in for a day. Always liked the FJ’s

 

Looks good! And then it will be like the first picture in no time dang pollen!

 

Yes, Steve Springs. Southeast overland is now C4RS - Custom 4wd recovery systems.

 

my wife hates them too until she realized the usefulness of them. And that she didn’t have to drive it.

 

I like them, but when I have the one on my 2.4 95 ….
I can feel the high weight in corners, as well as acceleration. With only 140-ish HP, I need to maximize all the little power I got & keep weight down when not doing “truck things”

I usually “run” a vinyl trifold tonneau.

 

Yea I had one on my 2011 2.7L and definitely could tell it was there. Damn thing was so handy though! It helped that the wife and I camped in the bed a lot.

 

Hit up gulches today. Did the "tacoma wave" a few times with 1 wheel several feet off the ground and 3 making contact, but no one got video or pics of it. First offroad trip for Leighton, he had a blast!

 

Looks like an awesome trip @Shibbyjeep .

We are slinging pizza and calzones on the deck tonight…

 

Random question... Does anyone know of a place that tests homemade soft shackles?

 

Tests them? are you trying to get them rated and sell them?

 

Kinda... Maybe not sell them unless was a market but Im making different size shackles for camping, dog leashes and collars... possibly vehicle recovery, key chains ( cause that's what needs a rating)
