Introducing Saga Streets

Since we can't see the foreseeable future we decided to add another member to our family so we can enjoy road adventures when on land.  Many cruisers pick up RVing after boat life but we aren't ready for that yet.

I (Tracie) love road trips. I grew up camping in the dessert, rivers, lakes and beach, but Steve isn't keen on sleeping in tents and we can't afford an expensive camper. Steve came up with a genius idea. We needed a daily driver so if we could get something that we can afford outright, easy and cheap maintenance, and he can sleep in it then we would be set. We feel a Toyota 4runner covers all of those things.

We found a very clean 2004 4Runner for 6k. We are adding a bike rack, putting seat covers on her, adding a top luggage rack, pulling out back seats, building a platform that adds extra storage and a sun awning. A few chairs, a weber grill and a cooler will make it very comfortable camping. She will give us the ability to take long road trips comfortablely and have weekend getaways.


We have already used her to take Steve's bike and my scooter to some trails across town.  We are very much in love with her. 

Hopefully, next April Steve will be able to go and bring our boat, Saga Sea, back to Texas and we can enjoy weekends on her as well. We have some wood work we want done on her before he brings her back.
