Meet Phil, a self-professed Mitsubishi enthusiast (to put it mildly) and owner of an Evo. Not a Lancer Evo, a Pajero Evo. Phil is also an asset to the entire Mitsubishi community. All car cliques should have a Phil. Let me explain.

Amazingly, it’s been a bit more than year with our Delica. It’s amazing the places we’ve gone and the things we’ve seen with the Space Tractor in just over 365 days. It’s been quite the journey, and it’s just begun. We’ve also learned a lot.

I just got back from Overland Expo West where I was on booth duty. Frankly, I love working the show booth because I enjoy helping others with their questions. On the way home I stopped for the night at a favorite camp spot in NorCal off of HWY 395. I opened an IPA and started…
