Meet my friend Larry from DirtyParts.com
 
So I bumped into this guy while loading up gas. I saw his interior and counted A LOT of gear, GPS, a computer, weather instruments, etc. The true outdoor guys' toy. We started talking cars and he took me to a tour around his crazy FJ. Lots of custom work on this functional off roader. What do you think?

Here's more from this crazy FJ.

He let me explore and take pics. This is Larry owner of DirtyParts.

He needs Camoflauge plasti dip in case of a WROL/SHTF scenario. He can recolor his truck with it. Lol

I own a Fj and sell everything on that car LOL. It's one of my 3 jobs and that is quite a impressive Fj. If I am remembered correctly this Fj was featured in a commercial or magazine. My boss at my jobs Fj has about 70k invested in his Fj. Some people just go insane. I love my job though, I get paid to travel and rock climb. http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...70a591ee1c.jpg

Na their is this huge scene developing in overlanding. Basically driving to desolate places and seeing how long you live without human assistance

Zbrah 10-11-2014 05:34 PM

So...people are spending money to live like a person without any?:confused:

Essentially sure if you look at it that way. You're living in places where the human generally cannot survive on his own. Like in the desert, through really rough mountain passways, frozen places and stuff like that. Some people like being able to turn their phones off and travel to the middle of the world and forget societies stresses. Unfortunately, those people are usually extremely rich as Overlanding is extremely risky but also extremely pricey. They just had some rich guy and a team travel through all of the world including Anarticatic. I think it cost them 3 million to setup the rigs and travel.

I've personally never over landed as I can't afford it but I do rock climb and camp out of my Fj. I got to say, I owned a drag racing 4wheeler, I've road multiple street bikes, and have road along in a GT-R and a few Vettes. Nothing has given me more adrenaline then riding my Fj down a trail on 2 wheels. Except for the time I fell off of a rock and landed on 1 wheel and almost flipped.

Well welcome and what a interesting and extreme way to travel. You guy's
are spending some serious money and really having a blast. This I respect.
My extreme road trip to Lake Tahoe last month was nothing in comparison.
I parked my Nismo at a boat launch then swam the great Blue..After an
hour drove over to Harrah's for a steak dinner and a diet Dr Pepper...

Is that a solar panel mounted on top of your rig... :tup:
