Vermonters

So where does everybody go wheeling? Any southern Vermonters know of any sweet spots?

 

Seems like the class 4 roads are the most likely? About the extent of mine around here have been farmers access roads. The clean up sucked and the truck smelt like shit for a month. Done some mall crawling though!!!
My buddy at work always gives me crap about it.

 

Hello all, I'm a North Carolina native but I'm going to be attending Norwich University. I won't have my Tacoma but wanted to get to know so of you all. So what're some great sites to see or do in Vermont?

 

If you're into hiking this is a nice quicky.

Sounds like a good little hike. I'll check it out. Thanks!

 

Hi and welcome or welcome when you get here!
I'm north almost the Canadian border!
Stowe is always a nice visit. Not sure if the alpine slide is still going?
I can still see the scars from the fiberglass burn. Fun times hehe I'd just break some of these old bones now days.
Anyways hI!!!!!

 

James saw you today.
How much lift did you add?
Dang man I was like who the hell is that!
Freakin nice ride bud!!

 

Ill be doing a little wheeling / trail cutting on Sat the 9th (next weekend) in Royalton if anyone is interested.

You can get around with a stock truck but will be more fun in a capable wheeler.

 

Near my old home turf.

 

Well here we go my truck goes in for the frame treatment tomorrow. Told them I want it back they say I'll get it back they are like 8 months out on frames.
And figures I gave it a heck of wash wax and polish. Looks awesome for 120k hope it comes back as clean.

 

Will you have to leave it at the dealer till the frame is replaced?

 

Hey Dean,
Not sure they say not, but my future son in laws uncle is a service manager at Handys and he said if it fails the hammer test it stays.
So my loaner started as a freakn Prius I asked if they could do better while on the phone.
Left with a 2015 Camry nice car less than 100 miles looks like it's off the lot still has plastic wrap on everything. Not a bad ride not my truck but not bad. I will know more tomorrow I wanted to pull a lot of my stuff off didn't think they would say we can do it tomorrow. The first inspection was like last June and they said it was good and qualified for the coating. I hammered it with lps3 rust inhibitor before winter. So we will see what happens.
Dean you gotta put some pics up or send me some bet that grill looks awesome. Handys better be nice to our wheels really didn't want to send it with them.

 

If they gave me a Prius someone would get stabbed in the neck lol. Truck looks awesome Jeff.

 

Thanks James.
you added more lift when you did your suspension work didn't you!
Truck sits way up above traffic. Pretty bad ass man.
I was told the Prius was only for the day and it would be dark out for my trip in to work.
So just a quick 100 mph trip home with a paper bag with eye holes cut out.

 

I'm still waiting on getting my rear springs installed, once those are in I'm going to dial up the front end to match. The Fox coil overs re bad ass though. Really nice to have full adjustability up or down.

 

I know, I've been real busy!! Yeah I hope they do a better job of watching your truck than the guy who's wheels got stolen!! I hope they just coat it and say your good for now!! I took my cap off, for now going to run without it for a while. Love my TRD exhaust, gives me a big grin when I start it up!!

 

Lol my 4 banger has a lose heat shield sounds like it growls when I open her up and hit like 15mph in first gear. Yea I made sure that the few I know at Handys know my truck is there and are gonna keep an eye on it or so they say. Should only be there for the day.
If it has to stay there for the frame I'm gonna strip all I can and swap my wheels with one of my other sets. Really want to see that pro grill on your truck! We will have to hook up so I can hear your exhaust.

 

Picked up the truck they said my frame was in good shape, keeping it clean underneath and the lps3 worked so far. There is a lot of coating on it I may park on the lawn tonight.
Had some coating on exhaust kinda makes it smell new. Truck came back clean with all my stuff as it should have been. Overall I'm pleased. I was worried about not getting it back for 8-10 months.

 

Holy shit!! They lay that shit on heavy!! Glad to hear you got it back!!

 

Thanks Dean, I'm kinda surprised at how heavy the coat is also. New frame would be nice but without the wait. No way is the coating a fix just a band aid.
