I am on Expo a ton as Honu
into Snow Peak camping gear :) and just camping in general and big time hammock camper

had a FJ since 2007
FJ ended up with a ton of stuff done gobi rack all pro sliders OME arb bumper winch etc... etc... etc.. etc...

so just got a 2015 4runner white trail with KDSS
with family of 4 and 2 dogs the FJ was just to small to go camping in comfy since selling the trailer and got burnt out on towing a trailer is why we sold it :)
now getting into lighter and lighter camping gear but still love 4x4 back country camping my backpack days are over but used to do a ton of bicycle camping
and did spend 6 months straight living out of a two man tent :)


on to the new 4 runner :)

will post up some more pics as I get some work done to it
but this time around going to be more about some armor but do not want to go the larger tires and lift so much as nice tires and proper setup suspension
this time around want better mileage overall and less weight meaning less wear and tear etc...
I got burnt out on the noise in the FJ gobi rack aggressive tires on our way to the destinations etc...
also the mileage as we often have to drive %90 on pavement to get to the dirt ! nothing like 12MPG or less :) hahahahaha

moved to AZ from Maui about 9 years ago miss the islands every day (am in my 50s) so why the name Honu ? I taught scuba about 15 years out there also lived on Utila back in the 90s teaching diving
and the nickname stuck from being a hard core freediver and holding my brreath like the honu plus just liking them so much !

the wiki wiki version of me :)

Aloha! We were fortunate enough to live on Oahu for a number of years - I really miss that moment of calm early in the morning just as the breeze shifts and the sun starts glowing on the horizon...

Also came from a FJC to a 15 runner.
 
yup :) and the smells of fresh sea air
or stinky pineapple trucks ;) hahahaah

have to say for working on boats for 15 years of my life there was pretty nice way to see the morning 5-6 days a week :)
