Let's start thinking about setting up a december run. Always wanted to check out Anza Borrego. Throw out some ideas.

It was blast! There's a lot of trails in death valley that you need about a month to go through it. It wasn't difficult but the history and scenery are what interests me. Food and the company what made it special. Still going through pix. I'll post some for those thinking about going. Hella cold at night right now! Saw where charles manson stayed and got caught. Saw some wildlife and the cabin we stayed at was simple but great! All in all, a must do!

Pics start about page 20. There's a couple videos from Greg (our Tacoma Outkast) of [MENTION=117408]Oneluv13T4R[/MENTION] and myself doing Mengel Pass. The trip was ridiculous. Beautiful place. I still have to go through my video.

Dope pics Danny! Were those shelters free for anyone to stay in?

yea but now that i've done a little bit of research, i don't think my original plan will work. it's going to be too cold out there for the equipment i have.
the overnight temps will likely be in the teens, or the twenties at best. my bag is only rated to 30 degrees.
still though, i'd like to find another location to camp out through new years if you're down to go somewhere!

Thanks man. Cabins are open for anyone to camp at. There's 3 right where we were at.
ok i'm a bit jelly.
are those tire tracks still at the race track?
Oh yeah. Very much so. We actually got rain while we were camped near Racetrack but the ground just sucks it up. It's going to take a long time for that damage to go away.

Pretty much any Desert would work really. Anza, Joshua tree, mojave, or Death Valley? I got winter gear so I'm good for anything but we can see what works for everyone.

Winter gear is key. Ask [MENTION=133319]MACT4R[/MENTION] how well they did with their "summer" gear. hahaha. I have a 30 degree bag and I was still freezing with multiple layers on.

Hahaha. Good thing is, the wife was with you so she now knows the importance of good gear to keep warm. Makes it easier to get your hands on the bank account.

Yay, got your synthetic! Now I just need to get stuck again so you can use iteep:
Yeah, I'm done with the steel line. Got an awesome price from Custom Splice, almost half the price of what others charge for synthetic. Heard good things about them through some of the Tacoma Forums. Don't worry dude, you won't get stuck anymore with them meaty tires.

Where do you live?
Whoever has the model 4Runner of your dreams is the right dealer. I flew to Las Vegas to pick mine up and had a nice drive back to SoCal playing with all the new buttons and shiny bits.
Cars.com was my friend
