Sorry, buddy. Been slammed with end of year family stuff and real work. I’ll be back at it soon. Thanks for checking in, stay tuned.

We are still waiting patiently!

Im sorry! Slammed with real work and actually camping rather than making videos about it : ) I appreciate the reminder though. Stay tuned.

If the owners are watching, Im a photographer from LA. 7:35 Photographers and brands would probably pay hundreds per hour or thousands per day to shoot in that building if they listed it on Peerspace or submit it to Image Locations Its pretty remote so that may steer some people away but worth a shot if they're into it.

They’re def not interested. I had to negotiate for 2 weeks with several parties and agree not to reveal the location to get access. It would be amazing to shoot in! But its totally dangerous…

You are my kind of romantic! lol

As a fellow 2nd Gen GX owner I enjoy your videos! Keep up the good work!

What? I thought Toyotas never broke! ;) Great video.

I live in Phoenix and just bought a 2011 GX two days ago. Your content is inspiring. I overpaid for mine thanks to this crazy car market but your vids make it feel worth it. Can't wait to get out there! Cheers!

Just got back from sleeping in it up in Sedona. Love it more today than when I bought it. I should have 3-4 more videos coming out next month mostly on GX based camping stuff. Stay tuned and thanks for watching!

Incredible content! Not sure how long you’ve been doing this, but it’s an immediate sub!

Sweet trip! I hope you sort the issues. Nails on chalkboard is a great tool to build suspense.

What was the problem???

This was a awesome video. I’m a new kind of camper in the mainland, from Hawaii. If possible can you talk about camping and how to deal with pests? Ticks, bugs etc. I want to take my son (4) but idk what I’m doing and you do.

Tbh, in az we don’t have to deal with them as much. I do have a cheap molle seat back organizer (amzn.to/3uYURf6) that I keep bug spray, sunblock, fire extinguisher, medkit, etc. in. When we go to ca it gets buggy sometimes and we use head nets if we have to. Start with an easy overnight to someplace close and build from there. You guys will have a blast! Just take some extra snacks. Snacks covers all sins when we parents inevitably screw something up : )

You've got me worried... I sure hope this issue doesn't stop me in the Starbucks drive-thru.

Is it an abandoned Starbucks from the 1890's? if not, you're probably fine.

As someone who recently retied a 4th gen 4Runner after it stranded me, and replaced it with a GX460, this is not fun to watch. Excellent video as always though

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news : ) If it makes you feel better, it was the result of service I had that week, not a random failure. Toy did a 3p Fuel service and cleaning the throttle body broke it. I'll cover it in a new video soon.

@@WastingTimeInTheWoods Well that is good news at least. I recommend carrying a wifi OBD2 reader and Dash Commander or similar. They are only $20 and it will dx your trouble code, so at least you have some info to decide if it is driveable or not. Spot X satellite messengers (and probably the InReach) also have a paid service where you can summon a tow truck or recovery service without cell service, as well. I know you had a second vehicle (always a good idea) but these are pretty inexpensive and provide peace of mind out in the sticks for things like medical emergencies, too. Looking forward to the next video!

Paul wanted to run the trail so I started looking into the area and tracked down the owners of the ghost town. It was a lot of work and negotiating but I think it paid off. Jeff and Elena were amazing hosts.

What was the issue with the GX?

I think Mike nailed it with the secondary air intake. My Land Cruiser did the same. Not a cheap fix if done back to stock. There is a cheaper work around though.

Alright. Let's grab a beer. Nice looking rig. Looks like we have the same fold down table modded from the Jeep eBay seller. Also looks like you have some sweet custom work going into the rear end. Would love to hear about that. I'll PM you on IG.
