I deserve the grief..... I did like the Tacoma, but after smacking the deer and my dog freaking out and scratching it down both sides. I was a little disheartened. Then I had a really close call the other day on the way home from work. So I decided to get out while the getting was good.

Now the Jeep, it is what it is, heated seats, remote start, climate control..... Yes I am getting old, so creature comforts are more important, besides its a MALL CRAWLER (not that I ever go to the mall) any way....

A lot of guys I wheel with have the newer jeeps. They are great rigs and talk about a huge aftermarket. ..it is crazy the stuff you can get for them

This is one of the deciding factors.. I am pretty much done building the woods truck and wanted something to tinker on.. Nothing to crazy.

Yeah, I wasn't going to do anything "crazy" with my truck. Just wanted to rebuild the engine and the next thing I know, it's in a thousand pieces...

I feel your pain... My Yota started out as a "quick clean and tune up"..

I know what you mean I was going to do a head gasket now I have close to 3,000 just in the motor and my truck is also in a thousands pieces

We had some snow last night.... Close to 9 inches deep in the drive way. So the Jeep stayed home today...


I took the Yoda to get some breakfast (first real meal in about 5 days, hate being sick).
Then I went to my buddies and guess what....... Another parked Jeep...LMBO

I haven't been here for a while, it was nice to catch up on a few of the build I've been following..
Haven't done anything to the Yota except put the soft doors back on and drive it a few times. NEED to get it in the woods.
As far as the Jeep goes, I put a 2.5 inch Teraflex lift on it and some 13.50X35 Nitto Terra Grapplers.. Rides beautifully.


I did discover with just a little tweaking, I could use the stock shocks off the Jeep on the Yota.. Waaaaay better ride than the shot "rough" country shocks that were on it.
