    1994 80 series with a new heart= 1hdt... Diesel Cruiser

    more pics (since I took them) ;) It was a pleasure to meet Luis and drive the truck. It has great power for the short time I drove it and I think will be a solid rig for whoever ends up with it. The color is even better in person and looks natural on the 80. My shots get pretty close under...

    Is my old Garmin worth using?

    How technology has marched on. The eTrex 20/30 now have nearly 2GB of internal memory (enough to store the entire City Navigator street map set, which is *very* complete down to every dirt/gravel road you may encounter), and can take at least a 16GB microSD card. With a loaded device it will...

    Google Translate + Google Goggles? I know also Translate + Docs allows you to do basic OCR (Optical Character Recognition) for documents. Your 007 James Bond app. ;)

    Google Android software and hardware: Post here

    Craig, I've been keeping an eye out with the daylight readable touchscreen being the most important, (upgradable) storage next, but for Windows... are you porting an Android ON app?? :Wow1: Not putting any stock in a built-in GPS, so USB ports are important. The new eTrex 30 has been...

    Is my old Garmin worth using?

    Garmin just brought out a new eTrex line. The eTrex 20 is an awesome deal at $200 for what features it has (feature similar at under half the cost of a 62). The 30 is $100 more for an electronic compass/baro.

    Random Scenic Shots

    hiking in the Oregon Cascades- at the summit was a surprise- a half dozen lightning strike fires. There is a teeny tiny flare up on the left fire and a teeny tiny helicopter dropping supplies at the lower right. Mt Hood in the background another trip, great October day up in the Cascades...

    Land Cruiser Photos

    Let me make at least a couple runs to Deer Valley and maybe we can talk. I've no problem with you first in line and you would make that truck better than I could hope to. I am hoping to start serious work on it next winter. This year had setbacks, with the '85 p/u DD losing a cylinder and my...

    Dusk shot of the 40 at Christmas Valley sand dunes. And for the upcoming winter season in the USA, a shot of "FJ454" on top of Goat Mountain. Need to get that beast back on the road!

    Land Cruiser 60th Anniversary Model was announced - 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show

    That sounds about right. '52 was about right when the BJ was born, and '57 is right around when FJ25s came into the US. The 25 series forum on ih8mud probably knows down to the day. ;) Loved the faked vintage earlier series footage in the video! It still doesn't excuse Toyota from their...
