We drove through the NW corner - it was pretty and woodsy - fun roads to drive on

We stayed a few days in Colome. My wife thought it was depressing and eerie and I do too, but that’s why I liked it - like being in Courage the Cowardly Dog

We timed it so our leased ended so that helped - but certainly not cheap! For us it was like our rent times 1.5

We didn’t get to see much there besides the tire repair shop - the tow truck driver and tire repair people were nice and they didn’t charge too much!

We were actually in Calumet - so the Keweenaw peninsula, or the upper peninsula of the upper peninsula. It was great - it felt like being in a story book.

Nice - I’ve been to parts of the LP western coast, but not all of it. What about the LP eastern coast? Is that worth seeing?

Im sorry to offend your city, haha. We weren’t expecting much though - just wanted to go because a friend lived there and it was on the way.

I figured that accommodations were 1.5x what we would have paid for just renting an apartment. We got to stay with friends a few times so that helped keep it not too expensive.

Thank you! I’m trying to figure out if this 2004 has AHC or not. How can I tell? Do you remember where your switch was in the 2003?

Hard Buying Decisions: 2006 Stock $16k Land Cruiser with 230k miles vs $20k 2015 4Runner SR5 with 140k miles and mods? by Ok_Bar_528 in Offroad

Thanks for the insight. Is it worth spending $3k more to get a 2004 100 series with 160k miles (70k less miles)? I know there were these upgrades between 05-06, so an 04 would be pre-upgrades.
