It's not a Toy, but I couldn't resist an opportunity to show off my ride when I go back to Maine once a year.

Cruisers in Mexico. Hard to believe they are relatives. They even have the same first name, FJ.

 In a zoo in California, a mother tiger gave birth to a rare set of triplet tiger cubs.    Unfortunately, due to complications in the pregnancy, the cubs were born prematurely and due to their tiny size, they died shortly after birth. <br /><br />The mother tiger after recovering from the delivery, suddenly started to decline in health, although physically she was fine. The veterinarians felt that the loss of her litter had caused the tigress to fall into a depression. The doctors decided that if the tigress could surrogate another mother's cubs, perhaps she would improve. <br /><br />After checking with many other zoos across the country, the depressing news was that there were no tiger cubs of the right age to introduce to the mourning  mother. The veterinarians decided to try something that had never been  tried in a zoo environment. Sometimes a mother of one species will take on the care of a different species. The only "orphans" that could be found quickly, were a litter of weaner pigs.  The zoo keepers and vets wrapped the piglets in tiger skin and placed the babies around the mother tiger.<br />

I dunno, that unimog is doing it for me

My Taco on the shores of Lago de Nicaragua:



It did great driving from Utah to Panama and back. All I did was one oil change in Costa Rica and it never missed a beat despite the bad roads, funky fuel, jungle storms/creek fording, volcanic ash, and endless giant speedbumps.

You should see the roads. I had an old Lumina in high school that literally fell into a pot hole.

What was left of the rack when I topped out on the last pitch of Snake Dike on Half Dome.

My two landcruisers I bought in high school and college.  Sold the red one to pay for the parts on the olive brown one I was restoring.


My two FJ40 Landcruisers. The red one was a '75 that I sold after buying the '78 olive brown one to finance the next restoration. Those things provided a lot of good times.

I want Allen's customized Taliban Toyota. Everyone needs some protection from time to time. As long as they aren't into blasting the Desert Tortoises, and all, when we are cruising along the Old Mojave Road......

Here's another and here's a good NYT article on how the Taliban love their Toyota trucks and Land Cruisers. "It is not our proudest product placement," he
said. "But it shows that the Taliban are looking for the
same qualities as any truck buyer: durability and
reliability."

It's not a truck...or a Toyota...but it thinks it is.

Yup, the Landcruiser is a classic rig for sure. But, I prefer the old Montero! Mine (1990) has 217k brutal miles on it and is in great shape - nearly indestructible (knock on wood).

Every truck needs one

 with gas prices the way they are I thought I'd just park the truck this summer and use it as a beer bottle opener.

Messing around in RMNP in winter, climbing 5.7 in rubber snow boots and ski gloves.

Now that's what I call a "standard option"!

The only downside is you gotta' get up off the tailgate, and walk around to the front of the truck, to open your beverage.
