    My 2012 Tacoma TRD OR. It's been super reliable and goes everywhere I want to. Slow build but it's getting there!

    What is the last thing you bought and plan to buy?

    I last bought a new-to-me CVT Mt Shasta RTT. I've taken it out a few times and it's a huge improvement compared to a ground tent. Next up is an awning of some kind. Going to need it for this winter rain, and a Utah trip being planned for next spring.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    This last weekend was pretty productive for me! I put a leveling kit on my Tacoma. While I was in there, I replaced the driver's CV axle which was worn and clicking, and replaced the driver's side differential bearing with a ECGS bushing kit due to slop in the factory needle bearing. I also had...

    Calling all Wrangler 2 door

    My old TJ, since sold it. My dad bought it new in 2001 and we built it up together. I inherited it and it's been all over CA/OR/WA. Never left me stranded.

    Complete and total Kayak Noob. What do I get?

    For what it's worth, me and my wife bought Dicks Sporting Goods plastic sit in kayaks, 10ft. Model is the Pelican Mustang 100x. We do exactly as you do, haul them to local small lakes for a couple hours paddle. I think they were $400 on sale for $300. We love them. They really take a beating on...

    Had a lot of fun in my old Jeep, but as I went on longer trips I needed more room ... sold it and just started building up this Tacoma. I get so excited seeing others that have built up more than me. Just because it's stock doesn't stop adventure! I took it to Joshua Tree and Mt Rainier...

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    I picked up some wheels and tires from a super nice guy in Seattle this week, they are take offs from a 2021 Tacoma TRD OR. They only have 8,000mi on them, picked them up for only $400! Not bad for like-new wheels and tires. Makes this old pickup look a bit newer. Leveling kit is in the mail and...

    Critical Gear for getting started

    Whenever I get a new vehicle to off road in (a few Jeeps in the past and now a used Tacoma) I've always started with what I got and modify from there, just like you said. My basic kit is a first aid bag, toilet paper, sunglasses, water and snacks, a warm jacket, and gloves. If I know I'll be...

    Pre-Trip Checks?

    We are taking our new-to-us 2012 Tacoma TRD OR on a week long road trip and light offroad shakedown at the end of the month. I am going to do a few things before hand, such and change spark plugs (130kmi) check/change all the oils, kinda the basics. Calling on experience, what do you guys do...

    Hey, I'd definitely be interested! My wife has family in Portland so we're down near the beginning of the WABDR often enough. I'll keep an eye out for your waypoint

    Chehalis, WA

    Hello! Just bought a 2012 Tacoma TRD Off Road. Been a Jeep guy for years but I wanted to get more into long distance travel than shorter harder trails. Hopefully there's some folks in the south sound area that would like to do some exploration day trips soon to get a good shakedown in. Me and...
