What kind of dog bed?

[@gavindanley7401]

In your suspension video you had 34s on. You now said you had 35s on it. Are you still running the same suspension and is there any rubbing?

[@jailbreakoverlander]

Ive seen the truck up close, and met Mike and even with clogs, hes a solid dude. He actually cares about his followers and what it is hes doing. a Rare thing these days.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Appreciate it, Richie - and thanks for your friendship.

In Colorado, we wash vehicles only when we want it to rain or snow.

[@armandcouture4655]

Hahaha

[@mrJHvideos]

this is too true xD xD xD

[@Chex55755]

This is true.... Me: "Oh blue skys.... 4 weather apps say no rain for the next 2 weeks...." Me: washes Truck or SUV. Pulls our of manual wash bay, to see dark ominous clouds. "You gotta be shitting me". Me: does 20 over the speed limit to get home before the rain or snow starts so i can garage it and not have my $10 go to waste. Me: gets pissed on by mother nature, about 2 miles from home... Me: "Colorado needs some fucking medication to control its by bipolar weather." Also Me: done washing my shit.....

[@Crespofutbol]

Your the man bro. Please do more weekederlander videos. Thank you for your work.

[@devbryce]

Weekenderlander vids are my favs

[@paulsileo1050]

While going into the Service soon, when I need to get a vehicle again, a Toyota Tacoma is exactly what I want. I've seen a few of your videos and I love everything on how you build yours and why. I might have some slight differences to my dream Tacoma, but yours is a HUGE inspiration to that dream. Thank you so much man!

[@Justin31789]

I bought my 3rd Tacoma here recently it’s not new but a 2004 access cab an old man owned with 46000 miles on it. I plan on upgrading it little at a time until I have a good overlanding rig. In the meantime I enjoy just driving it.

[@jhbryaniv]

Thank you for having a vehicle that looks like it's used.. Ie not spotless and perfectly clean...

[@wilsonsandidge5771]

one of the cleanest builds out there

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Thanks Wilson!

[@Steve-sz4bh]

No I think mine is a little bit cleaner. However mine is not a taco. I have a 2019 Ford velociraptor.

[@Steve-sz4bh]

jason I actually can assure you I do. If you would like to see some pics of it I can add you on Instagram. I love it and I did add some modifications to make it even cooler. I would love to show you.

[@wilsonsandidge5771]

Trump 2020 i want to see it. drop ur instagram @

[@Steve-sz4bh]

Wilson Sand Idk if I want to drop my insta on this so if you guys wouldn’t mind dropping yours I can add you guys and dm whoever wants to see the build.

[@fourthplanet]

Cool Video, great info. Living vicariously through these overlander vids. A story about dogs... My son, when he was 7 came down with a really challenging awful condition that required 2 really major surgeries. My wife and I got the new about this about a week before Christmas. We got a golden retriever puppy to cheer everyone up and my son wanted to name him Atreyu. I had no idea about that character and though my boy was saying Trail. So our dog was Trail. That was about 26 years ago. Trail helped my son recover and became the best dog ever. Anyway, great name for a dog for sure.

[@shaneladkins]

For the solar panel vibration, you could create your own vibration reducing rubber gasket mixed with some anti vibration bolt setup. That could help quite them down. I do really like the idea of the solar panels up there. Nice job.

[@MrYaksok]

the coolest part is how you set your dog up for success after surgery and for long haul rides(fully flat bed). Respect.

[@rogerhalt3991]

Your rig is incredible, smart, not over the top and as you say, exactly why you wanted it to be used for. I am also very jealous as the Tacoma is not available in the UK, I love the styling and capabilities

[@JoseDiaz-lv7wg]

Hi guys I am new Watching your show and I love it you are doing a good job also I love how you Design your truck Amazing I love the Camo design that all me god bless you and your family yes your dogs too and stay safe and happy always amen my friend

[@glock19gen3]

That ikamper is perfect. I emailed them months ago and they said they were. It going to make a smaller version that did not hang over the end of the bed. SOOOO happy to see them working on one.

[@1peckwonder]

I love the consideration for Atreyu, my dog doesn't have it nearly as nice. That dog bed/platform is inspirational.

[@sparklu]

The slow but unstoppable roll of multicam black, lumbering over everything he owns. From the truck, to the holsters to the jacket. Next up? Multicam black face tattoo.

[@justintran4400]

Hey Mike! Please do a video on how you access public land for camping and overlanding! I am having a hard time figuring out where to go for my next trip and figuring out which places have the best views. Thank you!

[@nickstert7437]

Thanks for this…. Just got s ‘23 and there were a few items I was looking for covered here. Forget Jeep, got a Taco now! Keep up the great vids

[@FenderStrat1975]

Cant wait to get my first 3rd Gen Taco soon. Mike you have inspired me for years to get on.

[@azazelone905]

I’m a Ram kinda guy but I must say: that truck really makes me salivate. Looks awesome.

[@benjaminhinkle9390]

Love the truck Mike, using your build as inspiration for my ZR2 build. I also live and camp in colorado.

[@jaredp19]

thanks for the updated video ! would love one about the dog seating on your back right rear seats... definitely more cozy than my dogs current setup!

[@GCrider4226]

Just wanted to say thanks for your original video on the Frontrunner stuff. Gave me a ton of ideas! I live in Australia so we cant buy the Tacoma here, but was able to get a ton of inspo for my truck all the same!

[@principal7819]

Can you please do a video of the wiring? Perhaps you could do this on your Land Cruiser - showing how to wire up a second battery, the fuse block and then accessories off the block. That would be super useful! No one else on KZbin has done something clear and simple.

[@duncdunc76]

Solid rig man! You'll only get more respect from me with a dirty truck!Personally I'm always a little wary of advice from a guy with a sparkly clean truck. Especially if hes giving me advice about truck stuff. However my ears are always open to advice from a Fella or Sheila with a dirty truck that's got some custom DIY done to it. I know those kinda peeps know there way around a truck and what can be done with a truck. I never wash my truck for fashion but I might wash it once in a while for function. However I usually dont even have to do that because mother nature generally does it for me. No better wash then driving through a rainstorm at 65 miles an hour on the highway. Cleans the undercarriage and all the little nooks and crannies one usually has a hard time getting when washing the vehicle themselves.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Agreed - that's the bummer of it not raining for 6 months of the year here (because it's snow).

[@AnonymousOtters]

+1 for the wildpeak's. Mine have been awesome. Better than most AT tires in the snow

[@YEABREAD]

I know it's a Third Gen and a Double Cab,but I'm watching again to get inspiration for my build. I'm buying a 2011 Tacoma Access Cab, TRD Off Road

[@nonamee586]

Look at that, good old China Wall trail. I miss that trail, it’s been years since I’ve been back out to Colorado and went wheeling. I recognized that obstacle right away lol.

[@dimitarchanev]

Hello from OFFRoad-Bulgaria counting 183 000 members! Great presentation and a wonderful truck.

[@TheTyphoon365]

Jiminy those were some quick upgrades. I dream of owning a good truck like that!

[@RyanRKJ]

At first glance, I was like "ok, a Tacoma set up for camping. Cool, looks good." I had no idea how much you had into it. Wow. The one idea I might adopt if I find the motivation is the under-hood storage. My Sierra has an empty second battery tray, so it is just begging for a nice weather-sealed storage box.

[@RandallJones]

Awesome rig man, I live in CO as well and adventure all over, my biggest regret is not having something like your iKamper, overnights are rough in the winter without it.

[@jordanbaldwin1477]

I love all the videos Mike! I’m excited for more preparedness stuff coming up

[@jk_wrangler13]

The camo rap makes your truck look bad ass

[@minnesotaco8880]

Tool bag vid would be great, can’t wait for more

[@cmcer1995]

It's not a real 4x4 truck without a healthy coat of fresh Colorado Red mud. I really like the looks of your Tacoma and the way you have it outfitted. Thanks for sharing, subscribed and liked, new to your channel. Recently purchased a 2006 Tundra Double Cab 4x4 with cap, don't like the bulky new models at all. Wanted just a little extra room and power. May use some of your ideas, like the HAM radio set-up too.

[@SilkyGuerrilla]

I was 80% sure a Tacoma was going to be my next vehicle. Your videos sealed the deal.

[@DM-tf6mk]

Just stumbled onto your channel and this is the second video I've watched. Great information and very detailed. I really like the wrap. I had a 2013 TRD but needed a full so it was traded in. Just test drove a 2020 the other day and really thinking of getting a Tacoma again. I'm in Colorado as well. Love the mountains.. Thanks for the video..

[@mrjonnyblaze]

I really like how you did the on board air.

[@krishayward5259]

Mike your Tacoma is so cool, its like the batmobile of trucks.

[@RyRyVids]

If the solar and things are rattling up top, consider putting a foil/wind guard that extends above the face of the panel. It could be mounted on the face of your rack.

[@caliesv]

have you tried the Nitto Ridge Grapplers? They performed, to me, amazing in Lake Tahoe Snow storms. The on road is pretty nice also. Keep up the great work!

[@motorbikeray]

Cool that you built custom seating for your dog.

[@EverydayJ1786]

It would be awesome for you and ash to come up here to Canada and do some overlanding in the Alberta / B.C mountains !

[@cade8986]

Love how a 2016 Tacoma in the highest trim still has a metal rod to hold up the hood. My 2008 Xterra Off-road has the same thing🙄

[@drakeanton2000]

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it

[@Bajrang.707]

Really love this built. ♥️

[@solo9600]

With all the overlanding you do would you prefer leather seats or is cloth better?

[@johnc6466]

Cloth seats to begin with, or at least cloth covers for the leather. I have the leather seats in my ‘18 and don’t like them that much.

[@solo9600]

@@johnc6466 what about the leather seats do you dislike most

[@johnc6466]

CalmJC Yea they aren’t very soft and I sweat a lot when I sit in them. I personally think that Toyota has had the best cloth seats for the last 25 years. The cloth seats in my 02 270,xxx 4Runner are still more comfortable and they are easy to clean, despite being 18 years old

[@mrvwbug4423]

I have leather seats in my 2019, I like them, they definitely look better in the Tacoma interior than the gray cloth ones. so far they have been pretty durable

[@krumbers]

Got a 2020 sr5 today this was the first video that came to mind!!!

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Awesome!

[@joelbennett3527]

Nice rig!! If you were to do it all over again, would you still have gone with an aluminum bumper? Debating if I want to go steel or aluminum. Love the content!!

[@BayouGusto]

Nothing I enjoy more than listening to some rich kid talk about his cool stuff.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Glad you loved it!

New follower here. I put way too much thought into gear selection, so it's nice to see your selections as a good place to start. Usually just go with it. I'll be watching!

[@dominica2765]

NICE TRUCK MIKE . IT NEVER ENDS .

[@mikenormandy9250]

Being an electrician myself, I would LOVE to see your Tool setup! I am saving up for my own TRD Off-Road (Pro if i'm lucky!) - You're an inspiration! Do you still have the GTI for your daily driver?

Legendary build mate!

[@jrbling25]

Truck is badass - as someone trying to slowly build up my own 2nd gen tacoma (current stock TRD offroad) for light offroad, camping with wife and small child, but also as my daily driver in a city - there are so many things to think about! So i appreciate your videos to see how some pieces of gear work and cost.

[@shaiq-nbaiq1826]

You are like the Garand Thumb of Tacomas

[@westerncoloradowheeling]

Awesome info, just got into my first Tacoma! Looking forward to the build.

[@mattcaser6581]

You do a great job on your videos, and the truck is equally nicely done. I enjoy your camping vids the most.

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Appreciate the kind words, matt!

[@h3coyote277]

What I really dig about this video, (and I'm finding it a lot in your channel) you do it on a true level of use. It's dirty.. Yep Did you use this kit.. Yep You changed this from the way you had it in the beginning because it's better this way... I'm doing my adventure vehicle build from an H3, everything sucked in the beginning except the name... So it's totally gutted now... Again, another great video..!

[@LastLineOfDefense]

Appreciate the kind words!

[@zackw2619]

Sweet truck vary purpose built, perfect for camping good all around. 💪

[@soulsurfer8797]

Consider securing the ax as it is quite dangerous projectile during an off-road roll over or HW collision. Thanks for sharing.

[@derekhellam9861]

Sweet ride. Slowly upgrading my truck. Love the ideas. Keep up the good work

[@mastr-sf1jv]

Couldnt even tell you were frustrated, cheers!

[@chrlsraines]

Take 1/4” luan plywood cut to fit the rack, use 3m Velcro tape all around on the edge of and in center of the solar panels should solve the air problem, give better support for panels and are removable and non permanent.

[@stevep5736]

Love that rig brother!!

[@Kvbroncos]

That is an awesome looking Tacoma.

[@dyingheart5180]

Just came across your channel and omg has it been helpful!. I am looking to buy a truck which will accept all I want to do with it. Great job on your channel and all the insite of features to upgrade a basic Tacoma.

[@TheJ0K3R1998]

Just randomly came across your videos and I have to say I’m impressed and jealous of your set up here. A couple quick questions, first is that a Multicam Black paint job or is it decals? What did that cost you? Do you have any recommendations for storage/organizers for inside the truck bed? Thanks!

[@brandenpeppar6290]

Great video! Your truck is awesome!

[@jczfinishingconcrete9731]

Your truck is bad ass ! Love it

[@adamkreuz9068]

Great inspiration video. I just want to do weekend adventure stuff as well, nothing major. The aluminum over steel I never thought about. I have an F150 though so I have a ton of places to compare equipment to.

[@jaywilliams8882]

Diggin your channel! I'm also in Colorado, running a 2014 ram 1500. I go on many weekenders as well. Building up my setup bit by bit. One cool thing is that I'm a machinist and can make my own gear. Hope to run into you out there one day. I'm in Rye.

[@davidacosta147]

Thats a bad ass truck man

[@curtisvasseurjr.6206]

It’s been a while since I saw one of your videos but it looks like you put a wrap on your truck because it was quicksand before. But it still looks great. Great channel!

[@digirole60]

Very nice rig. Well thought out. I always pick up some good ideas on your videos. Thanks Mike.

[@benjaminogle11]

do you ever wish you had a camper shell instead of the diamondback cover? Debating between the two - I just don't know if that shelf between the tent and cover will be enough space / annoying to access everything from the back of the truck.

[@longrangevoodoo4480]
