Some guys I know are in the middle of driving their 40's and 50's Jeep Willys across the country on their way to easter jeep safari. They started with 8 vehicles but are down to 7. They are going to be at Moab Outpost 4x4 during the week to share about their trip. I'm looking forward to hearing...

I have had my 2004 4runner for about 2 1/2 years, and it has always had an ongoing issue of losing coolant since I bought it, primarily by overflowing the coolant expansion tank. I replaced the radiator because it had a tiny leak, changed the radiator cap and checked the thermostat. Still I...

I recently purchased the 160 watt portable kit from solarblvd, mainly to keep our camp trailer battery charged while camping, but I also plan on adding a fridge to my 4runner soon so I plan on using the solar to keep the vehicle battery charged. The 160w size is really more than I need...

Over the weekend I headed down to the Needles with my family and some friends to camp, hike and drive the elephant hill trail. We made it to the park Friday evening and met up with our friends who already had camp set up at squaw flats. Our friends have an FJ cruiser but it is stock and so they...
