This is exactly the problem with the 4Runner - the factory roof rails begin too far back. I think I am going to gamble that the Tacoma roof / door arrangement is substantially similar and get the small parts to convert my existing Rhino-rack towers to Toyota. I parked next to a friend with a...

I very much hope to correct that this weekend.

I find myself perusing this thread again because the Chevy turned over 150,000 miles and was developing “character”. Traded it in on a new 4Runner. My old Thule bars fit the roof rails; this rack has been on an ‘05 Subaru and as needed on our Sienna(s). But my goodness does it howl.

I believe it completely, as I too am the recipient of such wonderful generosity!

Well, so long as that weren’t turkey sausage in yer skillit.

I need to just bite the bullet and try making one.

I love the idea. It might work for me in my Wenonah Prism, it has pretty narrow gunwales with the tumblehome. I don’t think it would work in my Northstars.

Lovely. How does she like the Greenland paddle in a canoe?

That was awesome! Thanks for putting on YT, I don’t use FB.

That’s great.

I like grape seed oil for my cast iron and plan to do the same with my cold handle. Once properly seasoned as Bob said, you should only need water and a stiff brush to clean it. I haven’t used ashes before, but I’ve used sand and water on stainless.

Are they really? They wreak havoc on my Mom’s home AC & car in Michigan. Rats with racing stripes.

#25 is Lake Iamonia, no “L” Iamonia & Miccosukee check out, both lakes are positively crawling with gators. I wonder where the local rivers would stack up? The St. Marks, Wakulla, Wacissa, and Aucilla rivers in particular are well populated. Sad that this article describes Florida waters as...

With a roof/bed rack you’ll have some amount of the boats sticking out- how long is the tongue on the trailer and if driving through a dip, you’ll close the distance between boat ends and trailer. Do the canoes fit inside the Casita?

I do the single cab bar and T-bar hitch setup. My tonneau cover is the solid type that’s hinged at the front. You can’t tow with this setup, though you could customize a drawbar insert with this particular T-bar. So a single stake pocket rack for the back of your bed and a single cab bar should...

Not bad, when can I expect my shirt 😁

That second one was helpful to me. Here are a couple of my paddle escapades; I used a BLO/spirits mixture to rub an oil finish in. One paddle has a varnished blade and oiled shaft and grip. https://www.canoetripping.net/threads/a-little-paddle-maintenance-bruce-smith-fishell.127404/...

I looked at a canoe today, but didn’t paddle. Even so I thought this was worth sharing:

As I’ve noted elsewhere, Dad worked for National Audubon. One of my earliest lessons was “don’t look up with your mouth open.”
