We did this trip last year, here are the better photos with my 4runner in them.





if you wann see the whole blog I made during our trip....Highway to Honolulu

Howd you get the Runner to Hawaii and how much did that cost??

You must have one hell of a snorkel for that drive!

You've got some great pictures on your blog. Sounds like a cool trip.

nice, you wouldnt have any close up of that grill would you???

Yeah... I've heard that Cali to Hawaii drive is a real bog.

Columbia river or snake river? look familiar....

I was hoping to see that you had turned the 4runner into some sort of Duck boat that was seaworthy.

Nice pics BTW.

Cool pics, this is one of my dreams to one day see the USA by driving accross it!

I know this is old news but my mind is blown.

I ran into this thread looking up "recon" and "hawaii" threads on the forum.

I'll also be driving across the country, starting in NJ on a 45 day trip ultimately ending in San Diego, CA to ship my 4runner to Honolulu. Our route is going to different though but I'll also be documenting it. My wife and I are moving in October.

x2 on this! Not a big fan of the Sotashi mod but would love my grill to end up like this!

An old thread deserves an old joke:

A man was walking along a Florida beach and stumbled across an old lamp. He picked it up and rubbed it, and out popped a genie.

The genie said, "OK, You released me from the lamp, blah blah blah. This is the fourth time this month, and I'm getting a little sick of these wishes so you can forget about three... You only get one wish!"

The man sat, and thought about it for a while and said, "I've always wanted to go to Hawaii, but I'm scared to fly, and I get very seasick. Could you build me a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over there to visit?"

The genie laughed and said, "That's impossible!!!

Think of the logistics of that! How would the supports ever reach the bottom of the Pacific? Think of how much concrete -- how much steel!! No, think of another wish."

The man said, "OK, I'll try to think of a really good wish."

Finally, he said, "I've been married and divorced four times. My wives always said that I don't care and that I'm insensitive.

So, I wish that I could understand women, know how they feel inside, and what they're thinking when they give me the silent treatment. Know why they're crying, know what they really want when they say "nothing,", know how to make them truly happy."

The genie said, "Do you want that bridge to be two lanes or four?"
