Four-Wheeling the Mojave Trail in a Toyota FJ Cruiser

Following an ancient trade route through some of the most inhospitable terrain on the planet. 


"Imagine driving halfway across California for two full days, without ever encountering another vehicle. Impossible though it may seem in a state with more than 35 million registered vehicles (that's one for every 130 square feet or so of the Golden State), our two Toyotas had the road -- more than 130 miles of it -- entirely to themselves." 

So begins the article from the December, 2012 issue of Truck Trend by Greg N. Brown. You can read the rest of it and view the photos at the Truck Trend Web site.
