      "title": "Adventure Vehicle  🏔 Toyota FJ Cruiser",
      "body": "The majority of our adventure have been through the use of road trips, some more than 10,000 miles long. These trips would not be possible without the use of our adventure vehicles. We plan on releasing articles pertaining to each one of our vehicles (past and present), first being the FJ.\n\n![FullSizeRender.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmTmxxdiGGn8gGMiwM5ZbsnoUuvHsAyb4HsGNM4kFwjwgM/FullSizeRender.jpg)\n*-Running Black Bear Pass in Ouray, Colorado*\n\nIn September 2012, we bought a new, bone stock Toyota FJ Cruiser. It was an Iceberg White, 2012 with a rear e-locker (electronic locker), A-TRAC (Active Traction Control), 115v/400-watt AC power outlet and a nice sounding stock JBL stereo system with subwoofer. The FJ was the first new vehicle I ever bought. \n\n![IMG_3078.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQJTN2U1eZmmtLkF5dbm9BECsDirhK153hdQZQFuAS4oV/IMG_3078.JPG)\n*-a few days after buying the FJ with our pale Cable behind the wheel*\n\nBefore owning the FJ, I had a 2005 Yamaha R1 motorcycle which was my only mode of transportation at the time. I loved that R1 very much, and she was my everything. We had a great time together and logged a lot of miles on the road, but I was missing something. Growing up in Washington state, I spent a lot of time camping in the mountains and hitting trails with old friends. I wanted to get back to the outdoor life. As much fun as it might be taking the R1 off road, I knew my insurance company would not approve. The search began for a 4x4 vehicle that would allow Ashlie and I to find adventure. \n\nThere are several great options to choose from when looking for a capable off road vehicle. Since we would be driving long distances across the country, I knew it needed to meet a few requirements: \n* Be reliable on and off road\n* Have a decent amount of storage space for gear\n* Could be easily modified (parts and vendor availability) \n* Good community with active groups and/or clubs\n* Comfortable to live in or out of on long trips\n* Look awesome!!! \n\nAfter doing a bit of research and several test drives, the Toyota FJ Cruiser was the vehicle of choice. Not only did it meet and exceed my initial expectations, but it also came with a great community of fellow Toyota owners and enthusiasts. Having belonged to motorcycle groups/clubs in the past, that type of network was important to me.  \n\nI decided to sell the R1 and use the money as a down payment on an FJ. It was a bittersweet moment for me. After the tears had subsided, I took that money directly to a Toyota dealership and gave it to a sales representative.  \n\n![4 Long live the FJ.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmdFnh2uN1CH5mRkzeWKNFxosGYPpVbphGuVdmL5LKDJPJ/4%20Long%20live%20the%20FJ.JPG)\n\nI originally wanted an Army Green TT (Trail Team) FJ Cruiser, but soon learned it might be easier to find a Unicorn and teach it to ride a Unicycle while whistling *\"My Achy Breaky Heart.\"* Upon receiving that soul-crushing news, I decided to go with the IceBerg White FJ. \n\nOne of my good friends also owned an FJ Cruiser, which was modified. He had replaced the suspension, bumpers and a few other things. I examined his rig carefully to get some ideas. After lots of creepy staring and touching on my part, I decided I needed to start modifying my rig. \n\nThe original plan was simple modifications. Tires, suspension, and maybe bumpers. Stock, the FJ is a capable rig. No doubt, it could get me where I wanted to go without any issues, but, where is the fun in keeping it stock. # **ModtheYota**\n\nMy same friend introduced me to a Toyota club in the area which he had a membership with. After that, he recommended some Toyota social media pages to follow. If that wasn't enough, he suggested a few vendors and websites where I could buy parts. \n\nHaving all this information thrown at me by my buddy and new Toyota friends, I had no choice but to go full potato with the FJ. I would wake up early in the morning and stay up late at night looking at social media pages, forums and window-shopping online. I compiled several lists of modifications, which seemed to change daily based on what new shiny products I found.  \n\nWhat was supposed to be simple modifications approved by The Boss (my wife), soon turned into massive changes. Some of those changes may have shocked her. Like that time she came home, and the interior of the FJ was laying outside, on the ground. I knew I had been caught doing something naughty because the first words out of my mouth were, *\"this isn't what it looks like.\"*\n\n![5 Build Pictures.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmPaisX24JBdNRKQ8Y2CjE3EXZCTjf7WAP1RWxPWdREMrs/5%20Build%20Pictures.JPG)\n\nAt times, she did not agree with some of the modifications, especially since cutting into the vehicle was necessary and at that time I had only made a few payments on it. One such modification was the snorkel. Put simply; she was not thrilled that I spend money on and cut into the FJ for such a \"silly\" add on. \n\nIf you are not familiar with what a snorkel is, allow me to explain real quick. A snorkel reroutes the air flow from the stock position (typically a lower point on the vehicle) and moves it to a higher location. It does this by attaching to the stock airbox or aftermarket cold air intake. In order to this, typically one has to drill holes into and through the fender to gain access to the airbox located inside the engine bay. Some of the benefits of this modification are:\n\n* Access to cleaner air on dirty, dusty roads\n* Ability to drive through deeper waters (AKA fording)\n* Causes random people to ask a lot of questions \n\n![IMG_0937 2.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZh7tytyNHJXifyc372qhNxjgdnSgxj93xwWqmW7XMbjA/IMG_0937%202.jpg)\n*-Snorkel visible on passenger side coming out of the fender and moving up the A-pillar*\n\nLittle did she know, the modification Gods were satisfied with my sacrifice and smiling down upon me. Shortly after installing the snorkel, we had a massive storm come through our area (south Louisiana) which led to flash flooding, yay us! She could not drive her car to work because the roads around our house had about three feet of water on them. She asked if I could take her in the FJ. I asked, \"why do you think I can do that?\" Her response was, *\"because you have a f@cking snorkel, now take me to work!\"* \n\nFrom that point forward, she allowed me to accessorize the FJ as I saw fit, as long as I \"needed it\" or it was \"practical\" or any other word that could be dramatized with quotations. I quickly found a way to justify every modification and chose my words wisely when articulating the \"why.\" If that failed, I switched to plan B which was reminding her of that time we used the FJ as an Ark so she could get to work. In the words of Hannibal, *\"I love when a plan comes together.\"*\n\n![IMG_2470.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQg5zEb3vcA9Cku9SZtqUpvCLqiwdnPeSwhvEn1DQ9pgN/IMG_2470.JPG)\n*-Crater Lake National Park in Oregon*\n\nOver the years, the FJ's physical features changed drastically and it was hardly recognizable as the vehicle I bought in 2012. As time went on, she developed her own personality and drew people closer to look at her. There were times I would walk outside from a public place and find people taking a picture of it, with it or reading all the stickers that littered the exterior. \n\nWithout hesitation, I would start a conversation with these curious onlookers. They were even more intrigued when I showed them the patch collection on the headliner. Each sticker and patch told a story, and they found it fascinating. The FJ was a travel diary on wheels. \n\n![IMG_6343.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcvtt2pXtx6vbBpd6vj81Njssz86L476GBqBPq98yX5Ru/IMG_6343.JPG)\n\nWhen we left home for an off road event or a long road trip, it was about the adventure. If we saw a place we wanted to go, we went. If we wanted to get dirty, we did. If we wanted to stop and explore, it happened. The only limitation to our journey was the ability to forget about everything and enjoy the moment. \n\n![IMG_8203.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZGb6iEtAPdYBSstRxSnrYm7SWNcQYi2KyEF8AJRq1YU7/IMG_8203.JPG)\n\nThe FJ gave us more than we could have ever imagined. Because of her, we traveled to all lower 48 states (some several times) and parts of Canada, attended off-road events all over the country, met thousands of people, and started a small business (*BakesFJ.com*, now *BournAdventure.com*).\n\nEarly on, we set a goal to visit all lower 48 states in the FJ. It took us several years to finally reach our goal before visiting our last state, North Dakota. Oddly enough, shortly after attaining that goal, the FJ was no more, which you will briefly read about down below.  \n\n![IMG_5859.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmNgheoZqHYUKVrLTSifQE7MyrVwo2YW9o2wkAyYrAhh4v/IMG_5859.JPG)\n\nI never completely understood the impact of a vehicle, until owning the FJ. Every year, millions of people are brought together because of cars. Whether it is a car show, motorsports event, club or an event like SEMA. Owners, enthusiasts, and vendors all assemble because of cars. \n\nJust like so many of you, I have witnessed that first hand. When I first bought the FJ, I thought I was giving her a new life. I later discovered she gave me a new life in the form of memories, friends and a desire to seek adventure. \n\nUnfortunately, she met her demise on a cold, snowy highway in Ontario, OR in January of 2017. That day, she gave her life so we could keep ours. The FJ, like most Toyotas, is very well built and allowed Ashlie and I to walk away from the roll over without injury. \n\n![IMG_7444.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmeXxXf6aga7iUicPFsRHNVkh52fWXt1dJ3FGzMK44dtR9/IMG_7444.JPG)\n\nThough the FJ is gone now, her memory lives on, and she continues to encourage us to *Explore America*. Even though the name of our business and social media pages has changed, the adventure remains the same.\n\nThe road trip torch has been passed on to our other vehicles now, and they will each become a legend in their own right all because the FJ paved the path for them and us.  \n\nHere's to the FJ! May you rest easy in Valhalla. \n\n![FullSizeRender copy.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQYveKfyBC3Y33hEEfwGP8YX3KRy4hjg4WYLPx4uZhPRr/FullSizeRender%20copy.jpg)\n*-Ouray, Colorado* \n\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n# <center>Thank you for reading this article.

      "body": "Outside of traveling, photography, vehicles, and other interests, we have recently become involved in Cryptocurrency. We are still relatively new to this space. Several months ago we decided to dip our toes in the market to get a feel for it. Since then, we have jumped into the deep end. \n\nAfter the metaphorical dive (us, not the market) we have learned a decent amount of information regarding the technology behind crypto, the markets, and of course, the coins/tokens themselves. Every day more knowledge and experience is gained. I make a conscious decision to digest as much information as I can on all things related to crypto. Why? Because I want to make informed, well-thought-out investments rather than just blindly handing money over in hopes of success.   \n\n![For Lambo 2.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcFnv59PS5YVwtV8pgabHBCcyqbJdAzKtaPMFkvmU7YLe/For%20Lambo%202.jpg)\n-*stock picture is a royalty-free image curtesy of Pixabay.com*\n\nI will be the first to admit, I have made several mistakes (learning points) since starting, and I'm sure I will make more along the way, but I have no problem calling myself out and sharing that information in future articles. \n\n# <center>Goals</center> #\n\nOur goals with any upcoming Cryptocurrency articles is to share our experiences, thoughts, failures, successes, and anything else that might be beneficial to people, especially those new to Cryptocurrency.\n\n# <center>How Does Crypto Tie Into Travel?</center> #\n\nWhat we have learned is, a lot of people within the \"travel/adventure\" community are also involved with crypto, which makes sense.  \n\nHere are a few of the reasons why I say this:\n\n* Paying for goods using Cryptocurrency while traveling reduces the amount of cash/cards needed to keep on your person\n\n* For international travelers, the ability to pay for goods or services with a currency (crypto) that is not affected by location or does not need to be exchanged for local currency (fiat) or needing to figure out exchange rates. For instance, if something costs 0.002 of a Bitcoin, the Bitcoin price is the same regardless of location. If something cost $16.85 (USD), the price is different depending on location, what fiat currency you have, and possible exchange rates.   \n-*at the time of this article, 0.002 Bitcoin was worth approximately $16.85 USD*\n\n* Having your money make money (depending on market direction) while traveling, but also having the ability to use that money as a means of payment without \"cashing out\"\n\n* Having immediate and personal access to exchanges without a delayed third party (investment firm, broker, etc.) response while traveling gives better control of your assets\n\n* Crypto is a more secure means of payment than credit/debit card, which allows for less concern of identity theft while traveling\n\n* **Steemit...**\n\nBy no means are we experts in this field. We are just starting, but that doesn't mean we can't share what we have learned with others. \n\nWe have no intention of abandoning our travel content; the Cryptocurrency related articles is what is known in south Louisiana as, Lagniappe (something given as a bonus or gratuity). \n\nSince we believe in the possibilities of crypto and the crossover between it and travel, it only makes sense that we would cover this space too. We hope that you will continue with us as we journey down this new path.\n\n![IMG_3125.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmYbPEPea6T2xRu6RPv2vtX5kTaoDFiEBpSQ5XLFHXNvaZ/IMG_3125.JPG)\n\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n# <center>I hope you found this article enlightening. If so, please feel free to interact with us in the comment section of this post.</center> #\n\n<center> **Disclaimer:** *I am not a financial advisor, nor am I giving suggestions, recommendation, guidance, advice, or tips.

While on our way out of the area we spotted this view point and decided to pull off to grab some pictures.\n\nOver the years we have visited the Grand Canyon a few times and have seen it from all different angles. One thing is for certain, no matter what or where the view is, the Grand Canyon is always breathtaking!  \n\nWe will have a more detailed article about our tip here, along with an article discussing our MINI coming out soon. \n\n![IMG_1890 2.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcJ4hHQqk66wux4Wts7bADoyZAZTWxsNfui4CwBjpAmNt/IMG_1890%202.JPG)\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n<center>https://media.giphy.com/media/l49JKLAsgGIMd7BZe/giphy.gif</center>\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\n*The world is a large place, and life is short. Together, we can accomplish much more than we ever could alone.*\n-Bourn Adventure",
