Get a trailer big enough that you can put a camper on the front and the landcruiser on the back.

I've thought about doing that too, Evil. The only downside to that would be the times where I don't need the Cruiser. Say going up hunting or something...

Can't you guys see I want it all for nothing?!?

Lots of inspiration at this site.

Expedition Vehicles - Expedition Portal Forum

If you want to do overland travel, there are people of this site who range from what sounds like a family camping trip to traveling the length of South America.

Some do it pretty cheap too.

Enjoy.

Gladly!

Here she is at a charity car show last summer:


Here are a couple from the event my club puts on every year:



Here is a couple shots of the new beadlocks:



And here is the most recent pic I have of her in her natural habitat:

Thanks! She's far from done (Are they ever done?!?) but she works so well the way it is currently set up. I think the next big step for me will be an interior cage so I can start wheeling with my daughter.
