Still love my tent too, but change is on the horizon.

You'll see soon™

 

Here's an interesting thread about it:

jamz i think you'll like Finnegans garage he has a plethora of vehicles including a bad as 55 chevy with a hemi in it
he is a pretty cool dude that also does a podcast that i follow discussing dukes of hazard episodes and just shooting the shit pretty entertaining the kibbe and finnegan show

 

Mine's for sale because it wasn't getting much use. I tried to get into camping but when the better half isn't a big fan, it severely limits the opportunities. That, and I decided to get rid of the Tacoma because with all the commuting and road trips we were doing (not camping road trips) we were spending hundreds a month since our options are a tacoma and a wrangler.

 

That sucks about the better half. But what can you do?

I think a good combo between two people is one of them should have something very fuel effiecient. That one gets used for non camping road trips etc. The other commuting and off roading/camping trips.


That gas money adds up real fast for sure. For myself I drove my tacoma about 18,000 miles last year and I only drive it on the weekends. But that includes a 3500 mile road trip to Mexico and back from the bay area and several trips to the Eastern Sierra. My daily driver gets 46mpg. Between the truck and the daily I average 35mpg. My daily was only $4K and it's already paid for itself in fuel savings. It just got a new front tire so it kinda has to pay for it's front tire. It's going to need a new rear tire soon so it's kinda breaking even. What I need to do is use it for more road trips.

 

Thats sick. I think @bayareataco had a dumped hotrod before?

This/\

 

Yeah man....the back story is super cool too. A guy who built trophy trucks did all the frame building on it. They built it for a truck magazine he was an editor for. Then he sold it and 10 years later re-bought it.

 

another good price on a 3rd gen shell

Damn should have waited. I bought one new

 

I just tried to eat next door at Pho King Good, but they're closed on Wednesdays...

 

Can be yours for the low, low price of $12,500.

"1985 Toyota extra cab 4x4 original owner low miles! Unmolested"
https://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/d/1985-toyota-extra-cab-4x4/6522695261.html



For that kind of money, I'd rather have that "unmolested" 1st gen 4Runner I saw a few months ago.

 

I have the first gen with 4 cylinder and five speed w/430 gears great fuel mileage. Wife has third gen runner with 4 cylinder and 456 gears with 5speed and gets fair milage. I just bought an 08 with the 6 cylinder and auto trans. We have bases covered. She works next door and I have an 06 Dodge from the company that I work for. Now our vehicles see the streets unless it's to school with the heathens or a weekend trip in the woods.

 

I don’t know how to do that

I was busy beating up pussy while you were learning computer stuffs. I’m gonna have to work a lot harder for the rest of my life now because of that too.

Worth it.

 

Anyone looking for:

• thermostat for their 5VZ
• spare tire/wheel
• Toyota red coolant

All of those are mine and for sale in Oakland. I need to get rid of them ASAP since I'm clearing things out before I move to Colorado in a few months.

 

Fucking savage!

 

hey thats mine. well it was mine

 

Nice! I like the 3rd gen OR wheels

 

@Overlanerd

Who needs a Scout II in their life?

 

i need new pants

 

For me, it’s because we are increasingly going camping alone so we dont have a spare vehicle with us to go adventure around in. Packing it up doesn’t annoy me but remaking the bed does. I knew this going in, just couldn’t afford a hardtop rtt. Now I can. If it works for you I wouldn’t pay any mind to anyone else’s choices on the matter.
