Hi. I've owned a KLR 650 in the past and ridden a lot of bikes. I'd call myself an intermediate rider with beginner off-road skills. I'm mostly looking for a commuter that can handle medium-short highway trips. Never looked at Husquvarna too hard until now. Any comments/observations on this...

Not mine, etc. etc. Surprising to find this in Minnesota: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/rvs/5070097423.html

Fairly unique and probably a solid machine. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/ctd/3974272331.html UD is closing in North America but strong in much of the rest of the world. Motors & drivetrain have a good reputation. Parts prices my go up but will be available for 10+ years, maybe longer.

Just started a thread on a somewhat expedition-vehicle related project over here: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/93849-5th-wheel-trailer-towing-specifications Thought there might be more 5th wheel users over here. Ideas and advice welcome.

Hi. Couldn't decide which forum to put this in so thought I'd start here. I have a HINO SG, which is very similar to a Mitsubishi FM. Towing capacity is listed at over 10,000 pounds. Chassis has a 230" wheelbase, and is bare, working on a design. Assuming the chassis is loaded to say, 2/3...

Automatic transmission only (6-sp) and I'm guessing virtually no chance that we'll see 4wd available in this generation, but there will be a new cab-forward and c.o.e. 4 door crew cab on the market this year. http://fleetowner.com/green/archive/hino-shows-class-4-5-coe-hybrid-0202/ looking...

not a lot on the internet, any one had any experience with these or similar shotgun/rifle designs? http://www.baikalcanada.com/rifles_combo_94mp.htm

http://www.belvedere-cabinas.com.ar/ pretty cool options, not sure if you could justify the cost of rebuilding one here in the states. Prices were quoted on another website in the $8-12k range, F.O.B., I assume.

I'm really low on cash at the moment and my 1st Gen. 4Runner needs an oil change-forgot how many miles (a lot) and over a quart low. I've got a jug of 20W-50 sitting around and it's summer now. Should I use it?

This is probably going to be a really slow thread but finally have some pictures so might as well get it started. Guess this is as good a place as any for a non-Fuso heavy truck project. shoot, can't figure out the upload. for now, maybe a link to my FB page is a start...

Wouldn't be my first choice as a trail rig but could be a lot of fun on field day or SAR. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FORD-QUIGLEY-4x4-COMMUNICATIONS-Surveillance-VAN-12k-MI_W0QQitemZ270506085639QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCommercial_Trucks?hash=item3efb6b4d07

Thinking about picking this up if everything seems right.: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/cto/1383621096.html I'm not really a Jeep guy and not planning on becoming one but I need a hauler and it might be priced right. Fair/great/not very good deal? What to look for? thanks.

There may not be anyone here less than 100 mi. away, if that. regardless- http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/cto/1325023767.html no affiliation, etc.

I remember a thread on a 90's- something Tacoma, but what's the deal on converting an older truck to 4wd? The frame on my 85 4runner is solid but the body is pretty much toast. Is the front half of the drivetrain from a pick-up identical? Were there any 2wd 4runners? How about a pick-up cab-...

Getting ready to try and get my HINO truck-based camper registered as an RV, or at least registered in a non-commercial category and could use some advice. HINO, in case everybody's not aware, is a branch of the Toyota motor group, generally comparable to Mitsubishi or UD/Nissan, except that...

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/bar/1040335876.html looks like fun, no chance I could do anything with it. Not mine, no affiliation, etc.

Anyone have ideas on a source for a inexpensive 12v water pump for the d.i.y. hydronic heater I'm designing for my box truck? Low current draw is the biggest priority- seems like 1 gpm would be enough. What's going to happen if I run water/antifreeze through a fuel pump? My truck has on-board...

I've done minimal research on the subject but any thoughts on repowering the T100? Seems like there would be a lot of room in the engine bay and an older 4cyl. could be picked up for a reasonable price. Anything in particular that makes the 4x4 T100 significantly less capable off-road than the LC?

Never was aware of a trailer heat system that incorporated an internal combustion motor but it makes sense...
