BAJA'd OUT!


In my most recent baja daydream I was thinking of all the things I would need to include on the ultimate BAJA mobile. And, speaking of, who makes it? I'm curious to know what you think the ultimate BAJA vehicle is, and what things you could not live without....

Toyota es Baja numero uno!


I am waiting for someone here to get an FJ Cruiser and test it in Baja!

I love my truck for Baja... long drive comfort, power, decent fuel economy, cargo capacity, 9.5" min. ground clearance... and all that without any aftermarket modifications.

Whether you choose a Toyota or the new extended-wheelbase Jeep JK, you'll be able to access the best that Baja has to offer. Another option I'd consider is this new Horizon Trailer:
