Our backyard for the weekend. A nice change from LA.

Parked next to this at Pismo Beach. Definitely dwarfs the 4runner!

I am also considering both the TRD pro and the TEP. Someone else even recommended going with a 4x4 SR5 and using the money saved to upgrade it to be better than the TEP. Any input ?

It's your call on having to buy and install a rear locker. Not too sure if crawl control and all those other things matter to you as well as the interior. For me, the trail premium/trdpro black interior with red stitching made a difference.

It just like someone buying a 911 GT3 RS vs someone buying a base 911 carrera. The person with a base carrera could easily use the money saved to build something better than the gt3 rs but some don't want to go through that.
 
Did a quick wheeling session with some family and friends yesterday. Missing a few of our usuals.

On our way.

Gotta love the front solid axles on the fj62 (stock except for tires... for now!)

[MENTION=123578]carlomagne[/MENTION] You're photos of you and your crew are so sick, bro lol. Skills. I'm coming over there to you're are for quite a few weeks working my way up the coast to OR and WA. Unfortunately I won't have my truck but believe me, I'm praying I come across some of these rigs along my way.
 
What's your set up on the 4runner?
Icon suspension, spidertrax spacers, and scs wheels

Hahaha thanks! Enjoy the trip and get ready for our lovely traffic!
 
I think I saw you a few weeks ago on the 101 headed south. Do you have a beard???

Updating with some photos from previous trips.



Went up during some pretty foggy conditions. Definitely made things interesting.

We knew a storm was coming in and decided to go play in the snow!

... and same with our friend J hahah. Glad we had recovery gear and were able to put them to use. No complaints from using both Treds and Maxtrax.

Took a quick shot before walking back to help dig.

All made it out just fine (minus 1 cracked windshield). Was fun utilizing recovery gear.

Most recent trip was out to Lake Arrowhead.

This was our driveway. Due to the snowplows, the wall was about chest height entering the driveway. Had to shovel what we could and just drive over the snow.

Us guys woke up a little early the next morning to do a quick trail.

Our buddy Matt with his sick 3rd gen. Felt like I was in a rally car when he was driving through the mountain haha.

Time to plan another trip.
