Toy-YotaParticipant
Spring is coming….
I feel your brake woes, I’m working on brake stuff too right now.
Toy-YotaParticipantNice progress really good to see!
Toy-YotaParticipantI’ll run it by the wife and put it in the calendar. If we plan it early enough lots should be able to come! Time and location ideas?
Toy-YotaParticipantMost of my Saturday’s in March are taken up, but I was thinking maybe a Sunday would work. I’ll talk to my wife and see what I can come up with, thanks for the reminder!
Toy-YotaParticipantThat sucks! Isnt that always how it goes? Is your neighbour still working on that mustang?
Toy-YotaParticipantI know, the feeling of constantly removing stuff feels so defeating sometimes. In reality it’s progress toward the final goal but it just feels like you’re getting further away. The moment you take it out on the first trip with the girls it’ll be worth it.
Theres a 5.7 swapped xtra cab on kijiji right now with air lockers and dual cases that I think looks pretty cool. Looks like it could definitely use some tidying up but seems well built. Reminded me of redee.
Toy-YotaParticipant3000 is what I would like (search offroad camper on kijiji), I’m hoping to the right person I’ll get that much money because it’ll help us out paying for part of a trip and help to buy the truck camper.
The idea seems unrealistic right now mostly because 1) the fuel will be like $1500-2000 2) trailering the 4runner that far kinda sucks 3)for the same money we can go to Hawaii which my wife would prefer LOL
Another option is doing one more once over on the 4runner, buying all terrains, adding a sway bar and driving it there with the pop up. We’re still thinking about it.
Toy-YotaParticipantThinking about selling my offroad pop up if anyone is interested. We’re throwing around the idea of trailering my 4runner to Moab so I’d need to a truck camper to replace it.
Toy-YotaParticipantIf they’re thinking used, I’d buy a 99-03 2wd Superduty with a 7.3 diesel. They’re easy enough to find for a good price. The 2wd ones were often owned by older guys and have lower km, they’re cleaner because they get driven less in the winter and a lot of them have 5th wheels already. The engine is bulletproof too and the inside is awesome for long trips.
Toy-YotaParticipantHow much money do they want to spend?
Toy-YotaParticipantDefinitely nice to have some added armor underneath!
Toy-YotaParticipantIt is true I was watching a video on the new Ram HD trucks and they no longer offer a manual. The guy was talking about all the negative comments on YouTube about ditching the manual and then he said: “if every one of those people bought a manual then they wouldn’t have anything to complain about”
I guess trucks are becoming more of an everyday family vehicle and people don’t want manuals for that.
Toy-YotaParticipantHate to say it but I think they need to take a page out of Jeeps book.
A turbo 4 cyl, a V6 and a diesel. Those are the options people want, and for the love of all things do not ditch the manual trans.

Toy-YotaParticipantThe video for those who would like to watch. The weather is supposed to warm up and the snow will probably melt so we had to go out before it was gone!
Toy-YotaParticipantDid a little prerun with a friend through some of our local trails.
