    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    I loved that truck. My dad told me he would match what I could earn. I had a pressure washing biz when I was 15. Earned 2500 and he matched. There was no better looking Bronco in the south. My shit was in Readers Rigs in 4Wheeler Mag. I was only 16! Wheeling is my life, I revolve around it.

    Well there was a Jim, Duane and Darrel.
    All looked alike

    I bet half the people south of Macon look like that guy in the early 80s

    In my mind the 66-77 broncos weren’t full size. That’s all I was referring to. Calm yourselves

    I wasn't thinking that far back. When he said Bronco and 460, I knew which one he was talking about. when you said little one, I was thinking from that era not the old ones.

    Being only 38, that is really what I grew up with. I only know the older ones because of pictures and historical shows on vehicles

    I really wanted to like he new Bronco they are coming out with. But if it’s anything like the future car they made it out to in the concept. No thanks

    I am wondering if it will be on a car chassis again instead of a truck chassis.

    I’m 37 :notsure:

    Never personally cared for any of the other broncos besides the OG. Even those I’m not overly knowledgable of.

    With a 3rd gen OR, do I need the e locker or not? I've been meaning to do this mod and this is the perfect price point to get the parts.

    Been a few years since Ive visted there but I'm going to say no. The parking area up top has some playground equipment if I remember, so that area is stroller freindly but the trails leading in and out of the canyon are steep and tight. Once your down in the canyon the ground stays kinda wet and soft in spots.

    Ok. I will post up some sources that are local, but I have no affiliation and get zero Fox, discounts or kickbacks on any of this. The boxes are legit but military grade gets thrown around too much and many are overpriced for prepers and fanatics.

    Dallas, GA. Has MES kits like mine on my roof rack. I love them and they are versatile for me. $120 is expensive, but these are a little harder to come by. 30”x18”x9” There are MES boxes in the first picture of this ad centered in the background. I have not contacted him in regards to price. He has quite a bit of variety. Temple, GA Finally, Ragland AL. A lot of variety here and he list sizes for stuff as well. These are pretty cool cases and reasonably priced. Let me keep looking for the guy whose wife works at the depot in Alabama. He had all kinds of crazy stuff. I mostly rip out all of the foam, but he had some UAS and Abrams Miles kit boxes.


    Hope this helps...

    Aren't these a little on the heavy side?

    Relative to what? I know of no other cases that offer anywhere near the weather protection or durability within the same class. They are made by Pelican, Hardigg is the branded title that owns the government contract.

    I just got a note from Wendy in Ragland, AL willing to offer up discounts. I know they get these in massive bids and purchases so there is plenty of room to move.

    I'm thinking of the MILES Gear boxes that are heavy as shit.

    Okay, yes. I did not purchase the miles gear boxes. They had Bradley and Abrams miles kits. I was only trying to articulate the range of sizes they had. I think one miles gear box would take up the whole roof rack. The MES kits are a perfect fit for size and practicality for the Tacoma. I got a couple other size specific to fit my trailer and still leave space for UTVs.
