Pretty setting, those pictures are catalog-worthy.<br>

ahhhhhhhhhhhh...nothing like waking up in the morning to the fresh smell of an AR! Sweet weapon!!!<br>Cool pics along the trail too!<br>

I've done that trail a few times, some of the slot canyons down there are beautiful, and the recent rains have totally changed it. We did see a guy in a Liberty on street tires being dragged out of it by a Rubicon...

Looks like a great time.

Looks like one helluva good time Ryan...<img src="http://static.yuku.com/domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif"><br><br>And a gorgeous photog to boot?<br><br>Yes...some things are sacred...<img src="http://mmb.maverick.to/images/smilies/camera.gif"><br>

I was gonna comment on pic 4 tkil I saw pic 9 hehe<br>
Looks like fun!

It was a great trip; no new damage save for a few scars on a rocker panel and some mileage on the old liver...

Looks like you had a great time.<br><br>
Great pic's also<br><br><br><br>

nice yota bro! almost built a 4-runner for off roading myself, but went with a cherokee instead. <br><br>
sweet pics and sweet rifle. i've got 3 AK's myself. can't wait til the zombies knock on my door lol!

Since I live in the desert you like to frequent thought this might affect you but it sounds like your group is pretty small<br><br><a target="_blank" href="http://www.vvdailypress.com/news/road-18057-bernardino-san.html">http://www.vvdailypress.c...8057-bernardino-san.html</a>

Let's see some shots of your Jeep!

love the old 4-runners with the removable top! they should have kept that body style in production a bit longer in my opinion...nice you got a manual tranny with yours, wheelin' just ain't the same with an automatic. <br><br>
here's my 1991 cherokee. just under 3k miles on fresh 4.0 liter I6 engine (stuck thermostat and faulty temp guage killed the last motor). 5 speed manual. just got suspension rebuilt about 1k miles ago. still needs a couple more odds and ends, but its pretty close to where i want it.<br><br><img src="http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww205/trizzbizzle/jeeparoo-1.jpg" alt="image"><br><br>
after accidentally going through a mud puddle<br><br><img src="http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww205/trizzbizzle/hotwheelsjeeppicsmudnewton294-1.jpg" alt="image"><br><br>
here's a snap of one of my zombie guns:)<br><br><img src="http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww205/trizzbizzle/norincodopeness008-1.jpg" alt="image">

<br>The first-gen 'runners were very cool with the fiberglas top and its twenty-something bolts and wiggly "roll bar." Getting in the back seat of that thing (with the top on) nearly required a running start! They're money in the bank today, and as much as I like my '90, I often wish that I still had my '86.

<p><strong>That 4-runner is kick ass. So is the g-friend.<br><br>Lo0ks like a good time there.</strong></p>

yup, you can't go wrong with the 4.0 motor. 190 hp and buckets of torque. i looked around for the first gen 4-runners but all the ones in my area are rustbuckets. nice thing about the jeep is there are millions of them out there and parts are dirt cheap. since i've bought it i've also come to appreciate the simplistic engineering used when they were designed. cherokees are about the easiest vehicle to work on that i've ever come across. <br><br>
a good friend of mine had an '86 runner. damn thing got rained in countless times because he would get lazy about putting the top back on since it was such a pain in the ass to do lol. still one of the best looking compact suv's ever though. i really like the 2nd gen runners too. way better looking than the nissan pathfinders from the same era<br><br>
if you think that AK is scary, you should see what else i got!
