    What are we using to host pictures now? flinger?
    I've been using Flickr. I don't remember when but at some point I started to pay for and now it's lost in my jumble of subscriptions I pay for. Unlimited storage is really the only thing for pay.

    Right click on the picture and then should see an option that says Copy image url or something. I did that and it said ....staticflicker.com.....

    Is that the flicker or is that another site?

    maybe r3v will be a collection of hooptie trucks now..

    is your truck a 4x?
    Yeah it's 4wd. Back in 2019 something goofed up in the front diff and burnt up the oil (grease?) and locked up the diff. Had that fixed at a shop and has been good ever since. Still worry about it time to time though for no reason.

    Good thing you didn't hit any gator-speedbumps.

    A friend in the valley has a car wash and has an old Toyota FJ as a prop inside. He said he will give it to me for what he paid, which is about the same price as an old auto eta sedan. Its Rusty AF but Im super tempted to get it... luckily I have nowhere to stash it... still tempting

    Reichart12 I absolutely love the pics, keep em coming!

    Ha yes more R3v-trucks.

    Camera is currently a Nikon Z50 with a Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8. Some older pictures would be with a Nikon D7100 and Nikkor 35mm or 85mm f/1.8.

    Thought I would take a post and make it about 2020 and really thought I had more truck photos. Only found 2 but I'm sure there might be a couple more tucked away on a memory card somewhere. First one is from a camping trip just outside of Yosemite. We had campsites booked inside the park but the week before the NPS canceled 2 of the 3 nights we had. Each night was a different location. Was never really sure if it was a Covid or wildfire based decision. Turns out a fire about 45 miles away did start this night and then filled the valley with smoke about lunch time the next day. Still got to climb Half Dome so that was sweet.

    Anyways, the road down to this free site sucked big balls. Took about one hour to go 5 miles. I hate dirt bumpy roads. Maybe the truck life isn't for me. Whatevs.
    Pretty steep drop on the side as we were on a mountain going down. Campsite was nice though and right next to a river.













    Eventually finished up my time in California and had to go back to Montana. Had the e30 shipped because I've never used a trailer before and figured the cost to ship wasn't that far off from me renting a trailer, spending more gas money, and stressing about it. Packed up all my possessions into the truck and cruised the 16 hours (over 2 days) back to Montana. You can see where some dingleberry rubbed against the truck. Had to street park it in Cali and their drivers suck. Little rub on the bumper and smacked the mirror and the glass is cracked. That's a project to fix it sometime in the spring or summer since I'm lazy. Of course, made it to cars and coffee in Belgrade, MT first weekend back.
