RV Lifestyle Thoughts
Nothing really new to report this month. I have been doing projects on our vehicles lately. Still loving the less is more Moto of my life.
I have been enjoying taking the FZJ80 land cruiser to the beach and trails. There is something unique about the 80 series land cruiser that I love. For it being 24 years old it looks amazing and runs great. There are some upgrades I am working on though as this is an ongoing project.
I sanded and coated the frame of my 03 F150. This took me about a week working on it a few hours a day after work and on the weekend. It was painful but now my frame will easily last another 18 years. Not a bad-looking frame for the truck being 18 years old and just over 260,000 miles on it.

This is one of the cleaner days working on the truck. You can see the passion and joy in my face!
A few things I’m still working off the good old checklist…
- Clean up wires in cargo
- Maybe run wires from the roof through the ceiling
Clean up roof wiresInstall new 200-watt panel
In case you missed it here is last month’s breakdown. Keep on the journey and path!
