Great job getting your van running!!! Superb pictures and write-ups too with excellent Tim AND llamavan advice! I have a 4Y but I still feel like I learned plenty from the read. Spindrift--here is where I can help: I am an Eastern Oregon native and as a fellow Toyotavan owner, feel free to ask me anything about the area. And I hope you are not talking about Bend cause that's central Oregon to us out here. I have recently gotten my 1987 4x4 Cargo Conversion up and rolling all around the hills. This last weekend my son and I drove the Hells Canyon Loop road from Halfway to Joseph and it was awesome! If you have any questions about must-sees, dining tips, camping advice, or just about anything else, feel free to message me. Our vans were built for the adventures Eastern Oregon provides!
