How did Kurt Beiermeister make his way to this ’08 FJ Cruiser—and why are people talking about it?

COOL, CAPABLE - AND CONTROVERSIAL

A Chevy Camaro, a Chevy Corvette, a Jeep Wagoneer, a Ford F-150, a Toyota FJ40, a Toyota FJ Cruiser, and a dump truck. Each one is an important player in connecting the dots between Kurt Beiermeister and this ’08 Toyota FJ Cruiser, which was on our 2019 TireRack.com Overland Adventure East.

When Kurt was just a kid, his father took him hunting, fishing, and camping. He also taught him an invaluable lesson: How to survive in the Northern woods, which helped whenever Kurt would go hiking and camping with friends or head out to explore. Then life got in the way of doing what he loved—he got busy dealing with graduating from college, starting a career, and having a family of his own. But then it happened—his daughter showed an interest in all those same aspects of being outdoors. “I figured combining my love of off-roading with all of the other things I enjoyed doing and being able to do it with my daughter was an absolutely amazing opportunity that my wife couldn’t say no to! So now every time I buy a new part for my truck to upgrade it, my wife can’t say no because it’s for my daughter, as well as my enjoyment!” Kurt said. He also cherishes being in the woods and spending time with his daughter just as his father spent with him. “I can pass on all of the things he taught me to her and also integrate off-roading as well.”

JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING

JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING

I was hoping to pick your brain as to a couple of different builds. I have a '19 Jeep Wrangler JL and a '74 Chevy Blazer. I'm a little baffled as to what to focus on. The '74 full convertible Blazer is my dream vehicle. She's been a long build and now I am thinking of focusing my energy on my wife's '19 Jeep JL. I recently joined a Jeep club and have been going off-road with a few guys. I'm shopping around for lift kits. Would you suggest that my time be spent and focused on the Blazer or enjoy the Jeep? I really can't do both.
