    Towing a car?

    For myself, having done it long ago, I'd want a trailer or towing dolly with brakes. But RVers have lots of options too, like controllers to apply the brakes in the vehicle being towed. In the 80's it was great towing a jeep to CO and UT with an RV, except when needing to slow down, like when...

    Canaan loop + optional camp and 2nd day at Flagpole - VA/WV/MD/DC/Southern PA members

    Thanks for sharing this trail location! I drove in each end yesterday morning and the fresh snow was beautiful! I turned around when I had to, but you'll have a great time. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

    Level of Education?

    What kind of bike rack?

    My preferences are 1) inside 2) on the roof 3) on the hitch So I'm using a hitch rack. Because my recumbent and the "old guy " bike won't fit inside. And it's much more difficult using a roof rack now. My 1UP rack works very well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk

    Poll: Personalized License Plate

    I've always thought vanity plates are silly, so I never had one 'til I got my T4R in March. One thing though, I visited Canada 4 times last summer and at the border they asked about the plate 6-7 times. I'm not sure if knowing it was good or bad. I still think they're silly. Sent from my...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Towing a small trailer to Alaska. Camped in a primitive campground on night of July 20. On the banks of the Mississippi River at Schoolcraft SP in MN. The river is little more than a swamp this close to its source.

    Hi! I still haven't made it to any Michigan off-road locations. Right now, I'm on the way to Alaska, towing a small (3000 lb) trailer. I'll be looking for some places to take the 4runner there, but it's mostly an anniversary celebration trip. I think the flag will have to go on a bracket...

    Hiya from the Lansing area! Hi, I decided to get back into 4x4's in March. I picked up a '17 TRD-Offroad Prem. in Mag. Grey Metallic w/KDSS. So far, I'm mostly getting together stuff to minimize a need for help if I do something stupid. Like I did last month trying to turn my trailer around...
