Thanks for the clarification, And I agree, that because this stuff is almost completely self regulated, if you stay within the designated power outputs for a given frequency and are respectful, no one will take issue with you. Like I said earlier, start our cheap, decide what your needs actually...

1998 Isuzu Trooper, 31" tires on 4Runner 17" rims, 5 speed manual.

HAM is certainly more versatile than GMRS, and the technician class license allows for a whole lot of capability while not being expensive or difficult to get. If you want to try out HAM, then get yourself a Baofeng UV-5R handheld radio for like $30 on Amazon, take the test, and just try it out...

I looked at Monteros before ultimately settling on my Trooper. I would have loved one of those as well! It's a shame really. There's not that many of us out there!

I had a '99 Ford Explorer XLT with the 4.0L pushrod V6 2wd. I gave it away at 280,000 miles and it's still being daily driven by my friend who I gave it to. Original motor and transmission to my knowledge (I had it for about 60,000 miles). I took that thing places that "more capable" vehicles...

Wow, that cargo area is a think of beauty :wink: And an excellent choice of color on your 4Runner! Honestly one of the nicest colors offered on any car/truck in my book! And you live in Garden City? I drive through there from time to time! Any good trails to recommend in that area?

I'm wondering if anyone has tried some of the cheaper A/T tire brands, such as ones that are available at Walmart. specifically I'm interested in the Travelstar Ecopath A/T. They look nice an have generally positive reviews, and and the price is pretty hard to beat if they're decent. Are there...

Sounds great!

I thought that looked like Yellowstone. Absolutely beautiful!

Hello everyone! Just wondering how many other Isuzu Trooper owners there are here and what you've done to your rigs. There's not a lot of aftermarket support for us, so have you found any parts that don't officially fit, but work anyway? Most of what you can get is super expensive (looking at...

Hueytown here! I've got a '98 Trooper that I need to work on a little (needs CVs and some other maintenance), but after I get that done I'd be down to wheel!

I grew up in Bamako, Mali! Not there anymore, but it's great to see people from West Africa on here. Bienvenue!

A fantastic back country campsite in Big Bend National Park! I've been several times, and remember how to get to this particular spot... for obvious reasons! If you've never been, I 100% recommend it!

If you're looking for something very cheap (and I do mean VERY) but still fairly decent, I've enjoyed the various kinds of Knorr rice sides from Walmart, as well as the 90 second rice pouches. They're only about $1 a piece, so if money is really tight, but you still want to get out there and...

If you can find one with the manual 5-speed transmission and a reasonable amount of miles, then I'd say it's definitely worth considering very seriously. The MUA-5 transmission is great. You can fit up to 33" wheels before you need to lift (according to a chart available on planetisuzoo.com)...

Hello fellow southeasterners! Does anyone know of any good trails that are within a reasonable distance from the Birmingham, Alabama area? There's not a whole lot of public land around here (read: no BLM land), so I'm not really sure when I'm allowed to go and where I'm not. Any suggestions are...

I see you've got a gas can attached to the little back door. How did you mount that? I'd be interested in doing the same thing to my '98 Trooper.

Hello everyone! Just signed up from Birmingham, AL! I'm very interested in getting into overlanding and can't wait to see everyone else's rigs and figure out what I want for my own. I just recently bought a 1998 Isuzu Trooper. I've attached a picture to this post It's got a few things that I...
