    Monte could have an infinite number of trucks but only one would be drivable at any given point.

    Does everyone have 2? Surely not.

    Big Dan doesn't does he?

    Mike doesn't, although I suppose you could argue he could take his 4runner camping ha

    I guess Zane does and has used his.

    I mean it's my daily driver/water hauler/worker truck. And has the most miles of any tacoma in our group by a lot.(by how much is the question as the speedo was broken for who knows how long so well into the 300k area).


    Plus it's blow a LBJ on me so its definitely part of the family :laugh:

    He does. He has a 4runner that has family camping duty and tows a trailer with an RTT on it.

    And my 4runner is not camping worthy...no frig.

    I am indeed in the RS area but I don't mind a drive. I am on stock tires at the moment but upgrading those is pretty much at the top of the list, hopefully in the next couple months. Not sure how my schedule is gonna shake out around those dates anyway but I'll see what I can do.

    Wait, wut? I thought you might have said many things about the runner, but no fridge? Isn't a fridge movable between vehicles?

    Next thing you'll say is that the 4Runner doesn't have a USB charger. ;)

    Nice man.

    There is some cool stuff near there as well.

    The maypops tires you have could see a death. But hard to know. That'd be the only recomendation I'd have to the truck. Everything else you can figure out as you learn what you want out of the truck.

    But yeah, keep us posted.

    Don't worry too much. These guys all said the same thing about my tires when I joined on my first trip (on 31" Duratracs) and it was only Monte's truck that died on the trip. Twice. Three times if you count the quad-winch-situation.

    They were all great at helping me through various lines and around the stuff that would cause any sort of problem for my "less capable, but still more capable than the driver, rig." If anything had gone wrong, they would have easily given me a spare or done whatever was necessary to help me along. And still will.

    Duratracs area not stock OEM tires. Those would be perfectly acceptable.

    If he has any aftermarket tire then he'll be fine. If it's the factory OEM dealership tires....high probability one could pop. Thus the name "maypops".


    But yeah, definitely won't leave you behind!

    I got so much shit for my tires from you guys. Probably around the campfire though, so there's no evidence. :spy:

    Not that I didn't deserve it when I was spewing crap like, "My Pixel is just as good as those DSLRs."

    Oh I'm sure we teased you because they were duratracs. And only 31s :laugh: Duratracs were known to slice their side walls really easily back in the day. So yeah of course we'd tease you for that. haha



    ah yes...the pixel only days..haha
