    Hey guys! I know we've got the Vegas BS thread, but what about the rest of Nevada? I'm not sure if there is already a thread on this. I know I see a lot of Tacomas up north during hunting trips, but don't see them here.

    This thread is for the purpose of introducing yourself, the area in which you live, lifeline if help is needed as Nevada is vast. Please feel free to use it as a BS thread also.

    I personally live in Vegas, but I grew up in Caliente. I help with the Vegas to Reno races and can be seen up near Beatty. I also head north towards Ely and Elko for deer hunts.

    So 775 Tacomas, do with this thread as you please, and I hope I run into you somewhere in the great basin!

    Here's what I recommend ; get some business cards made up for you on TacomaWorld. Put one on each Tacoma you see. I've found that none of these guys outside the big cities, know of TacomaWorld. When they need advice they go ask Bill at ABC Garage. They only know of the bigger brands like warn, fabtech, etc..

    Woot! Elko here. There are a ton of tacomas here, but everyone seems pretty uppity. I wave, noone ever waves back. I'd like to get a m&g set up sometime.

    Yes. They had no idea it even existed, they thought I was talking about the sqeaky spring tsb.. I had to give them the tsb #. I had to set up an appt so they could check out the truck and make sure it qualified, and they fixed it no problem. Glad to se another Spring Creekian here!
