    Plans changed a bit. Rugged is going to be at TJ Flores shop today and tomorrow to do radio work for anyone that needs. I'm going to head up directly after work today to have them knock out the couple things I need for my truck so that I'm not in their way at tech. With this change... Not 100% sure I'm going to even head to tech at all honestly. May just skip that craziness.

    Nice video,
    Careful going out there, that's BLM land and the fines are quite steep if caught, had a friend that got caught up there and got a $1,500 fine

    I'm new to the 4x4 world, not tacoma world.

    I was born and raised in Vegas, I know there's TONS of off-road trails but which ones am I allowed to go on? Which ones are WORTH exploring, versus just a dirt road that leads to nowhere?

    I've been on the caves as above (warm springs/fort apache) but I didn't know it was a 1,500 dollar fine either.

    Most notably around Sloan, Spring Mountains, Blue Diamond, and Lake Mead?

    Do you guys meet up and go off roading together often?

    Whats up fellas! New to the Tacoma 4x4 thing. I've had my first for about 6 months. Done a few things to it. Don't really know anyone in the area. Do you guys have meets? Clubs? Whens the next run? I'm off work for the next week and looking to drive something local if anyone is interested. I've been on a few but went alone which isn't as fun or smart really.

    Anyone know of any rock sliders available locally for it? Someone selling them or a local shop? New or used? Banged up? Can fab some this weekend? Anything?

    The build is done, finished it about 3 months ago. I like it a lot so far for being a budget build with New Frontier parts. I won a giveaway on Instagram a month back and won an All Star Tactical Delta muzzle break. I have it on but haven't shot with it yet.

    Yeah I did but here's one I just took with the new break on it.

    Want to do another build but thinking of just building a new upper like a Grendel 6.5 or a .300 blackout, not sure on how the polymer lower would hold up to it though.
