I agree an awesome photo! Would I be close if I said that was Death Valley?

Probably something for the pavement too. A 2 wheel drive truck for hauling materials and stuff.


Have I got a beach truck for you .... 5.8L V-8, fuel injection, factory tow package, it loves to tow boats and trailers....

This is my 1990 Ford Bronco 4-wheel drive ....




And it is for sale .... I need something smaller for around Todos Santos .... Make me an offer .

dear bowbw-

if you had one of those black plastic balls with the black liquid inside
with the plastic triangle that says yes, no or maybe...if you asked the
magic 8 ball of baja, which truck is the best...it would clearly say -

TOYOTA old school 4 x 4 pick-up with a shell!




Baja California can be a heaven or hell experience - often the determining factor is your AWARENESS in the moment.

Right on David. That was overlooking Panamint Valley below and the speck of green that's barely visible is Panamint Springs, a good stop for a cold one. The picture was taken around 3:30PM in very late december of last year.

nice setup there.


I didn't know we had met soulpatch. I added the wheels maybe 3 or 4 years ago now. I got tired of fishing water that everyone else fished. Kept reminding myself why I came to baja to begin with. Being restricted to launch ramps seemed to go against that. So I spent several winter weekends sawing square holes out of my boat.

I'm with CaboRon, I have a 1989 Bronco that I has been all over Baja. It presently lives in Campo La Jolla and beach launches both of my skiffs.
