    Next Purchase/Upgrade

    The acoustic guitar arrived. Enya x4 pro. All carbon fiber. This 'should' complete the guitar spree. Being a thrifty sort of person, I spent less for 6½ guitars, 5 amps, 5 effects pedals & board, and an effects processor than the cost of just the front bumper. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    For Places the 4runner Can't Go

    Figured out what was causing the spontaneous revving, nut on the throttle cable came loose and would get stuck in the cam on the carburetor. Now to learn to start it when I want, not when the bike feels like starting. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    Snorkle arrived today. Have the winch & windshield washer tank skid. Awaiting the bumpers, but by then it will be too hot to work on the car. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    I was informed that TJM is no longer shipping any products (the snorkle in my case) to the US. The supplier refunded me and I found another US vendor that had it in stock. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    For Places the 4runner Can't Go

    Picked up a 1985 Honda XL600R. It's in fantastic shape, and it's a beast. I have 2 adult kids that want me to teach how to ride a motorcycle. I prefer "dual sports" for this and damage is less than a road bike when it is dropped. And after moving back to AZ the MVD wants another skills test...

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    I live in an "open range" area so cattle in the road is a regular occurrence. Also wild donkeys aren't unusual. I ordered the CBI "adventure" front bumper. It has the hoops around the grille & headlights. The CBI rear bumper I ordered doesn't have the swing outs. Sent from my SM-S908U using...

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    Didn't think I had a picture of the back of above mentioned pickup. I do. I still own & drive it. A rather stout bumper they hit. I waited around until their friend with a tow truck arrived and removed them. Then I drive away. Should police wander by and butt in, I didn't want to be in trouble...

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    I'll let their car crumple twice as much for me. I was once sitting, tail end Charlie, at a stop light in my 68 F100. It doesn't have crumple zones. I was rear-ended by an 80's Chevy Cavalier at around 30+ mph. They were towed away. I had some red paint from their car on my bumper. Zero damage...

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    It's already a death trap with aftermarket wheels & tires, rock sliders, suspension lift, and full skid plates. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Bumpers & snorkle ordered

    I took the plunge and ordered steel offroad bumpers for my 4runner. Sadly, not as much for offroading. But because of the horrible drivers when I'm in town. Almost hit head on going around a left-hand corner. Car going the other way was all the way in my lane. The snorkle because the intake to...

    One more guitar arriving Wed. Today bought a Badlands Apex 12,000 lb winch (synthetic rope) in preparation of purchasing front and rear bumpers. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Bought a few more. Rearranged where they live. The three with family or nostalgia value are in the cabinet. Added the SG clone and the box guitar to the mix. Got "the room" set up better. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Post your garage/man cave

    My garage is filled with tools and equipment. Projects are done on the carport (except reloading during a short temperature window). Way too hot most of the year to hang out there. But I do have "a room" in the house... Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk
