You know it does

@@closj6735 it started and drove onto the tow truck just fine. All the doors still opened but the panel gaps were all inconsistent

Yeah it started and drove onto the tow truck just fine. But the roof structure was compromised and even though all the doors opened and closed, the gaps were off. I'm glad they totaled it b/c I wouldn't have trusted it anymore.

@TrailTape I agree. Just making a half hearted attempt at a joke about Toyota reliability. Try to find a used Pro version to replace it. I've had a 4th gen, a 5th gen trail, and a 5th gen pro. The pro is hands down the best of the 3.

Thanks for watching! There will definitely be more videos coming, but sadly my pockets are deep enough for a new Land Cruiser. They do look sweet though.

Insurance totaled it. It's already been hauled off and its replacement has been purchased. Stay tuned. ;)

Thanks for watching and the kind words! What happened to your window? Replacing a regulator?

@TrailTape the passenger side pully rotted off. Pita

Thanks! Well count me as jealous because these trails are about 2 hours from me so I don't get to them as often as I'd like. They're fun trails. Nothing stressful but enough that it's never boring.

@@TrailTape I’ve been in this house for about 6 months so I know about Treat mountain but not the trails that are free to ride vs trespassing!

@@TrailTapeyou have an address or directions that could get me close to the start of the trails ?

Thank you! That was definitely a fun ride

Thanks, glad you liked it

Yeah I was riding in my friend's Land Cruiser. I wasn't sure if my stock 4runner would make through the water crossings and I think that worry was justified lol. If it's this deep during a drought I'd hate to see it after a rainy week. Awesome trails though! Thanks for watching

What time of year did you go? Was the weather cooperative? The fog hurt our views but we were glad to not get any of the rain that was forecasted for our trip.

@@TrailTape we always go in late September due to temps fail colors and fewer people. We usually do Moab too. We have run into snow. One year Imogene was closed and another year we did Ophir with about 8 inches at the pass

Haha, that's a great name. Thanks for watching! Yeah I'm still stock suspension and winch-less so the traction boards are vital. This trip let me compare my red Xbulls (cheap) vs the orange real Maxtrax. The flexibility of the Matrax let them contour to the tires which gave some extra traction when getting up over a ledge. So they were a little worse as a ramp, but better as a traction aid.

@@TrailTape oh, good to know. I haven’t done a lot of comparison on traction boards.

@@OverlandPNW For the money and especially as a first set, the Xbulls are good. They get the job done and are about 1/5th the cost of Maxtrax. But after being on my roof for about 18 months they now develop small cracks starting at the ends every time I use them. They won't last forever, but even a broken or damaged traction board still adds traction! However, if you have the means to buy them Maxtrax are definitely a superior product.

@@TrailTape Got it 👍
