Videos like this cause me to get irrationally angry. Due to my past lives in uniform and as a responder I know quite well folks all react to trauma differently, but the videotaping instead of immediately rendering aid just rubs me raw. I feel as though it just showcases the dissonance and narcissism that has infected…

No, that was why it was such a mystery as to why it suddenly decided to BBQ itself. Bone stock, had just been serviced with new belts and clutch.

A friend of mine always called those “unique features”

Extend your breathers, buy a front locker, and live happy my friend. Good skid plate before the locker might make sense too.

Back in the States, whenever I went with the Jeepers I was always amazed at how much time was spent stopped for BSing and maintenance after purposely finding the most difficult way over a hard…

Buddy was in traffic and suddenly a passer by yelled, and it burned to the ground.

Friend of mine had his turn into a BBQ recently, cause was not determined.

It isn’t the least complicated option, but having tear offs on the acrylic be taken off by a motorized “wiper” that stages on either side would solve the debris accumulation visibility issue.

We’re talking F1 here, stuff like that isn’t a moon shot, and cost cutting isn’t the priority despite interminable whining.

It’s a Lexus, very little goes wrong that will disable critical systems. Hell, the windows will work better on a 15 year old Lex than a 5 year old Chrysler. AHC can be a bit temperamental if abused, but on older trucks you do better to cut it out and put OME’s or Ironman suspension in anyway unless you really like the…

If fuel pushes you into the poorhouse, you’re making other bad life decisions and will not be able to afford a Highlander or a TLC anyway.

Yes, similar to a JGC, but you don’t get to discuss your service manager’s children. You probably will never learn his full name.

In rough use in East Africa with my outfit, the 200 Series is proving just as tough as the 105's they replaced, and are a much better place to be, especially compared to the J70's. The 25 year rule is still in effect.

You need one, Doug. But if you take it off-road, upgrade the suspension with at least OME’s, if not ICON’s, FOX, or Kings if you’re feeling like taking curbs and speed bumps at 45 MPH too...

Honestly, after having it for a year in DC and then a few years in Africa here, I don’t know how I can live with another vehicle.…

When I lived in the DC area, my cars got dented all the time, bumpers in particular. Found out I was going to Africa, bought a Land Cruiser & threw steel bumpers on and for the following 6 months, stunningly, no one hit my truck no matter where it was parked..

I have an eerie feeling we should Ukraine now that Spring is coming and more combat tested SOF units return.

It has a roll-bar, some intrepid soul should endeavour to find out.

I bet it wheelies

That year I moved from a K car to a Crown Vic with a 5.0

Mine’s long gone through, sold it to someone who tried to win a jousting match with a commercial truck .

When I was 17.

It was a very good year.
