DFW meet

I freaking love the new 4.88 gears, so worth the money. Its like driving a new truck now, not to mention just got over 17mpg to my last tank, thats city/hwy driving, used to only get like 14.5mpg so big difference there. The low end power is great now, no longer have to floor it just to get up to highway speeds, cant wait for bridgport meet to try them on the trails .

 

id have to say go with the icons....its not like there is going to some kind of huge ride quality improvement with the kings....well not atleast how ever much you are spending extra on them wont be worth the small gains if any that you get.

 

Sounds awesome!! im ready for some better gas mileage!

you got a really good point there! that is most likely the route i will be taking

 

KING's ftw! haha. Sorry I have to rep the kings, wouldn't go any other way. I have had kings on every one of my trucks and have never once had a problem. I know people with icon on their Tacoma and they broke or the shafts got messed up.

 

just did some midnight trail/stress relief last night at the side entrance off euless main for mosier valley, 4wd works great now, tried to see how far I could get in 2wd got stuck driving to slow through a some clay slush and completely forgot about my rear E-lock could have stayed in 2wd if I used it....plenty of drivable trails out there still if you have some good ground clearance so we should do a pre-bridgeport trail ride some weekend soon, and make sure our rigs are ready

 

How far is that place from carrollton

 

I'm down! I want to take mine out. I ordered my 7th injector kit last night so I should have it by Saturday, and i'll be spending much needed time installing it! Can't wait to test it out.

 

ya let me know ill be free saturdays after lunch hopefully if nothing goes down at work over the next couple weeks.

Im surpirsed you didnt already have the 7th injector on, how bad was the pinging?

 

For sure! I didn't have it yet because I had a bunch of other bills to pay and I was in-between jobs. But now that I got an even better job, i'll be spending more time on the truck And I am possibly getting a 2nd gen Taco and building it up the same way. Then i'll have 2 Tacoma's lol.
The pinging was only noticeable at 3k, and it was bad. But sounded cool hahaha.

 

so is there actually mud out there now?? its been so dry out there the past months...

depends on how deep you are into carrollton. if you are close to 121 then it should only take you 15-20 minutes to get there, depending on the traffic with all tha construction going on.

 

Ya there was tons of good big puddles out there, it just rained alot around here so plenty of mud, didnt get too adventurous just cause I couldnt see shit without my flood covers off so just drove down a couple trails till they forked and turned around, but was a much need test for the 4wd that went perfect
heres a pic of the truck havent gotten around to washing yet usually hate leaving mud on like that, but ill wash it once I get my tiregate in so it'll look like a brand new truck

 

damn, wish i coulda went. i almost went out there today to check it out. just didnt wanna get to deep in there without 4wd and by myself

 

ya thats how I felt didnt want to get stuck and not be able to get out with my winch and have to leave it over night, thats the last place you want to leave your vehicle cause it will be stripped by the morning seen it before to one of my friends little brothers bronco and they took everything even stripped parts off the engine was nutz.

 

you got that right, most cars would be set on fire when left overnight. but it seems lately i havent seen too many people down there like there used to be, when tha huge parties were always goin on

 

ya i remember doing all the partying out there in highschool thats what got me into wheeling, ya used to be really bad out their late at night for awhile cause the tongan (sp?) gangs would go out their just to cause nothing but trouble and burn and strip stuck trucks.

so is anyone going out to the trails this weekend? heard there might be a pre-game trail ride before tilted kilt? I work till 12pm but should be free after that as long nothing else comes up.

 

did someone say high school parties?

 

It's fight night at the Kilt Saturday night, GSP is fighting.

 

so i think we got enough rain, Larry, you wanna try out tha 4wd

 

What time are we meeting at the Kilt?

 

so Cullen you not going to the bridgport trail meet may 14th weekend? could use some more 4wd tacos out there.....
