Ya. Soon as we rolled up on that spot I knew. I may try to design something different for tail lights at some point. I don't know who the guy at Toyota was that designed the tail lights of this era trucks, but clearly he's never been on a trail.
I recently parted w/my fj and it was hard to watch for a while. I enjoy your vids, the honesty and rawness of them is refreshing. Keep on, keepin on. 🤘🏻.
I appreciate you watching! I love my FJ, ol janky never let's me down. I have a deposit on a new trailhunter tacoma, but I have yet to see if I'll fit in one. I don't fly the third Gen tacoma, but the 4th Gen is supposed to have more room. We shall see...
@@mwallace021 I like to sit down to 12, which is a bit low for the street, but we just never knew how long we would be on dirt or asphalt... And Collin in the lead was still a bit green, hadn't really embraced airing down yet.
Ya, after running that mess a couple days that's what we started doing. I had no idea what we were headed in to, I was just tagging along. Totally went unprepared...
@@EverymanOverland those can often be the best trips out though. I went down to KY at the beginning of Dec without ANY of my equipment. Just had to make smarter choices and had a blast
You already saw one vehicle tear tail light up. Why aren't you throwing all those traction boards down in the rut to keep the side from rubbing the wall.??? Just curious😂 great stuff
The mud would have swallowed all the boards. It was so slick and sloppy. We didn't even recover the red lens that imbedded itself in the wall. Just couldn't walk over there.
Howdy from Oz. Nice one, some great wheelin and scenery. 👍
The scenery was amazing. Such a great trip! And howdy back!
Keep on trucking!
It looks like it was a lot of fun. Some of it was painful to watch though... mainly the breaking off of tail lights parts!! 🤣

Probably the same guy that designed the tail lights for the Gladiator 🤣
Great video. Looks like a great time!
Thank you for watching! It was a fantastic time, I recommend it highly!

Yep, mine was also a silver 07 6mt.. i moved into my wifes 15 Tacoma.. talk about a diff. I can’t wait to see how you move works for you!
what a muddy mess! and carnage!
The mud just kept getting worse! Luckily the carnage was mostly limited after this, but not the mud.
I did that trail (hard 1) in 2020 in an xj on 29" tires... I need to hit it again...
@@mwallace021 I think the hardest part of all of it was just how slippery everything was from the rain. Good times though, that was an awesome week.
When e are in the RRG and Daniel Boone area, we just air down and just go slow on he pavement.

I tend to run around 18psi in my 34’s on my FJ the DBBB area and stay off the highways rather than airing up and down

@@EverymanOverland gotcha
@@markspinner7220 plus, the lights on the fj stick out like 3 or 4 feet 😂. I looked at it and just accepted I was going home with one light.
