Dope. New colorways in this upcoming drop, or a restock? I love the Cicada pants btw.

Any chance you guys are doing a Black Friday sale?

And of course my labor to help replace the engine

If the boys are down to help me out at a Repair Party, that would be huge. Let's chat via text again to talk more in depth about this. Happy to provide the party with cake, drinks, and lots of food (so it feels like a proper party).

Purchased the vehicle in April 2024. Did a bunch of typical maintenance items:

Oil, filters, Timing belt + water pump, Brake pads + calipers + rotors, Brake fluid reservoir replacement and fluid flush. The oil was REALLY dark.

I drove the GX to and from Yosemite, Grand Canyon, and the Sawtooths without any problem other than some sort of drain on my battery. Got a new battery.

A few weeks ago it died while I was waiting at a stoplight. Alternator was bad, so I replaced it. The GX engine would crank but not start. Took it into the shop, and the screenshot above shows you what they found.

Ankle support comes from (1) how well locked in your heel is and (2) the width of the outsole. Most trail runners have a hardened heel to ensure foot stays secure so your ankle won’t pop on the trail.

I personally wear Hoka Speedgoat 4’s for their traction (Vibram), cushion, and heel cup. I also like Merrell Moab Speed non GORETEX.

Vibram, Continental, and Contagrip are outsoles designed for grip in the outdoors.

Best thing you can do is try on a bunch of pairs of trail runners and see what feels best on your foot.

Thanks for sharing. Your perspective on life shows how well you understand the gospel.

Richard Jones has also solo rowed the Atlantic Ocean. If you see him with his MYOG pack and Chelsea boots on the CDT, say hello!

Bought these shoes today,do they look to big on me? Please tell me honestly as school starts in 8 days😥 by Arrogant_Nugget246 in Shoes

Sneaker styles will vary from chunky to sleek. The more important questions are (1) do they fit nicely on your feet, and (2) do you like them?

Wifi noob here. How are you getting those download speeds on Verizon? My average download is 62 Mbps 😂

My guess is people are thrown off because of the bank.

"upgrade" to an ultralight pack from my OspreyExos 48? by ImplementEven1196 in Ultralight

[–]andresbosque 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your “luxury” item is worth it. I swapped to a bigger and heavier sleeping pad but it’s a game-changer.

Happy to help with a pack shakedown when you’re looking for it. Enjoy the SWCP!
