In California, the road taxes are use to pay union wages to government workers before they are used for fixing the road.

till ya pinstripe it with creosote and mesquite.....

I just like knowing what is on the other side of that hill I am rolling up. I use the front cam all the time off-roading. Spotters have to drive some times too... I did like the overhead view on my Taco, but the resolution was so bad, I may have just used Google Maps for that look...

After the next presidential election, there will be a massive replacement of union workers with the folks that are just arriving. There are more than 5 million new people here in the US that weren't here 2 years ago. Think of that as you walk the picket lines for the very last time.

I sold my 2008 Trail Teams (FJCruiser) for more than what I paid for it. As for the Gladiator, it may be a "niche" truck, but I would bet that if Stellantis decided to sell Gladiators with that V-8 that is in the Wrangler, just about everyone one here that has a Gladiator would be looking at...

If your route ran by Las Cruces, I would ride a chunk of the drive with you bearing the flag. You are headed across a bit north of us but we'll be thinking about you and your bud. Keep us posted on your drive and plans. I am sure there are lots of opportunities to get in trouble when you get...

I wanted a Willys (kinda) so I put the 4 wheel drive sticker on the tailgate of my Rubicon. That's the Rubicon with stock 33's and no lift. That gives you an idea what it would look like.

I just plug mine into the center console USB connector and leave it alone. I do wish I had wireless connection to Android Auto, but it isn't a big thing. I have thought about the AA wireles dongle, but I just don't care. I have my watch connected to the phone so I just leave it in the console...

Don't wait for that allowance from time. Do it as soon as possible.

After living in a few different places in the world, I have just decided that if I have more than 3 years on the batteries (any batteries), I am on borrowed time. I have started to live with a starter kit as part of my recovery gear pack. There are lots of options out there. Just remember, that...

Just waiting for Toyota to come back to the US market with an updated FJ-45 Land Cruiser Truck...

Look, it may not be perfect, but you have comms. I think if you need comms and don't want the hassle of mounting stuff, a decent hand held will do the trick. I like using a microphone that attaches to the radio so you can leave the main body (and more importantly the antenna orientation) in...

I like the AC in my Gladiator. I have the OEM headliners in it as well. That and the fact the vehicle is all white, helps keep it cool. And Thank god for remote start. I turn it on as I head for the door when out and about. I have thought about ceramic tint as well, but haven't found a need for...

Same problem with my Harbor Freight lights; RF hash all over the 2meter and HF bands.... Best 73 NH2BV

I mention to my Tacoma buddies that when I traded my 2021 TRD Pro for this Rubicon, I never looked back. They all freak out. They don't understand! I have owned Toyota 4 wheel drives since my 79 FJ40. I loved them all, but as they evolved, they started to get too "integrated". My last true...

Progressive just sent me an updated quote for my insurance on my side by side. Since I had paid for the full year last December (12/22) I thought they couldn't increase the cost until the end of the policy period. Guess again. The bump was for uninsured motorists. It went up to just about double...

With my trailer (Dutchmen 16 footer, happens to be called a Rubicon at about 5K lbs loaded) I see my JTR loping along on hills at 4500 RPM. Granted mine is an auto tranny (can I say that here?) and I am running OEM Falken tires. Gas mileage is not so great. I got about 7.5 mpg up and back...

Here is a pic of the SXS I was talking about next to the Gladiator.

I have a CF Moto ZForce 950 HO. After the first couple of rides the wife and I realized we should have gotten one with the dump bed. The 950 is fine but the practicality of having a more utility type vehicle is more important. I like the General, but not ready to part with that much cash for it...

Shot this one this morning. ;);)
