The Awsome-ness of the 4-Runner

I have introduced my son to some of the old t.v. shows I used to enjoy when I was a kid, Dukes of Hazard, and Night Rider to name a few. He has a fascination with the "General Lee" a bright orange Dodge Charger complete with a confederate flag paint job. With Net-Flicks we have seen a couple of the episodes and the high flying action of the General Lee.

Moving on... Sunday afternoon we went searching for a dirt road to explore. Mostly to get out of the house and see some of the last fall colors here in hill-billy heaven. Finding a dirt road isn't too hard but traveling can be. I should have taken better pictures of where we were and the road we were on, but I guess the words will have to do. Our truck as we call it is a Toyota ('yoda by the locals) 4 Runner. It isn't the v-8 which I am glad it isn't, but the more powerful v-6. The fun part about this whole blog is this. Misty almost pucked, hurled, blew chunks, lost her toilet, I heard that phrase in Texas once. We 4 'wheeled in places that looked like only AT V's could go. It was awesome! The 4 Runner has a standard locking center differential, and a really cool feature called DOC which only works in 4 lo, lowest gear, the function works with the transmission and brakes to keep the vehicle at 2 miles per hour, we crawled up steep trails and down some funky hills. Kamrynn and Misty didn't much care for the adventure, but me and Zach had a blast. My brothers and sister remember "Pee-Wees" gravel pit, well amplify it by 5 it was that cool.
