    Gonna work on new angles for videos now

    Once they grade it we should give it a shot. It is more torn up now from the rain than I've ever seen it! More rain is coming...

    Any good off road places/trails in the Bay Area?

    When I went to Cow Mountain a few years back we did not need permits.

    Any good off road places/trails in the Bay Area?

    There are some dirt roads around Hwy 1 N of Santa Cruz that you could drive on. I would be careful going to far off pavement up here in the SC mountains though..... growers do not take kindly to folks showing up near their operations! Besides, with all the rain we have been getting the paved...

    Gonna work on new angles for videos now

    Once you get the hang of it you should give it a try from the passenger seat! It would be really cool to see a Truck Hill climb from above!

    Any good off road places/trails in the Bay Area?

    BLM land might be your best bet although there really isn't anything right in the Bay Area.... Cow Mountain between Ukiah and Clear Lake comes to mind. There are also some area's east of Clear Lake. One other small off road park to consider is Frank Raines OHV near Patterson off Hwy 5.

    Thanks for the report and pic's. I am heading to Utah in late May for Gone Moab but plan on exploring a little before the event. This info helps me with some idea's for my route.

    Looking for advice on Tires...

    On my previous rig, a Nissan Frontier, I only went up to 265/75-16s from 265/70-16s and ran a lot of difficult trails. On my X, I have less lift but was able to fit 285s with a little melt mod on the fender liner combined with a small modification to the metal behind it. My current lift is only...

    Oroville evacuation

    I was just making a point.... I was not yelling at anyone or posturing. There was so much misinformation being spread around the country that I just wanted to clarify the situation. I also apologize if I hurt anyone's feeelings.... If you look at this article...

    Hollister Hills 2.11.17

    Glad to see you got that reattached. The damage is barely noticeable now. I've been looking at the hole I punched in my bumper cover for about 10 months now but my new bumper is supposed to get delivered wed.

    Oroville evacuation

    There are large helicopters dropping bags of rocks into a large hole that formed on the auxiliary spillway. This spillway has NEVER had water flow over it before. It is not concrete but just raw earth and a road that crossed it has been washed out. With the huge release of water down the damaged...

    Oroville evacuation

    OK folks..... let me be perfectly clear about this - IT IS NOT THE DAM FAILING, IT IS THE AUXILIARY SPILLWAY! This is still a very serious emergency and they are letting water out of the lake using the regular spillway that has a large hole in it (you may have seen this on the news). The...

    JEEP VS TOYOTA

    For an overlanding rig, the 4 Runner is a better choice. You can sleep in it if you want and it can carry more gear securely as well. While there is a huge aftermarket network for the Jeep, it is nearly as big for the 4 Runner. Also, starting with a completely stock rig allows you to build it...

    There are 2 campgrounds in the Upper Ranch, which is the 4X4 area. The Obstacle Course camp and Sycamore Camp. Sycamore is less exposed to wind and has FREE hot showers! While there are rumors that prices are going up, currently it only costs $10 per night and includes the normal $5 a day trail...

    Tire Deflators

    I have seen someone tear a stem off on the trail while using those type of deflators. I'll stick with my ARB Easy Deflator.

    What Rig Check do you perform?

    All great suggestions! I'll add check the lug nuts and air pressure in all 5 tires. Tighten down all hardware for skid plates, sliders and suspension. Visually check both differentials, transfer case, transmission and engine for any leaks far enough ahead of time that you can complete any repairs.
