What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

I just found this picture searching my albums. forgot about it. kind of defines the saying "let's go places" for me.

 

that is heading up to Chilko Lake. that mountain range in the distance is where you end up.

 

o shit look what I found.. this used to be on my Vw van. did not pick it, the insurance branch actually selected it for me.. sorry off topic.. nothing to do with 1st Gen.

 

420 plate on a hippy van. nice..

 

fuking hippies.

 

Love that area. We always stay at Horn Lake for a base camp because it seems to be the only place you can go in the Chilcotin that doesn't have a tonne of mosquitos in the summer.

 

That is a beautiful piece of work! Well done sir!

 

does someone recognize this fellow taco at arbor hill nature reserve, plano TX? anyway full loaded off road , nice

 

never been but I did just search it. I will check it out one day. thanks. the mosquitos were not that bad for me at chilko. I was up there at the end of July. if that matters. I've only lived in BC for awhile now. originally from Manitoba. talk about mosquitos.. ew.

 

Took the taco on a hunting trip with my brother. Here's it before we got to the mountains:

And here it is at the top of the mountain:

2 wheel drive works pretty great. Never have had to use 4 wheel drive before so I'm curious what it will handle like when I do. Having my brothers fat cat in the bed really takes up a lot of space, thinking of making or finding a small trailer to haul behind for that sort of thing.

 

My truck still surprises me sometimes! Looks like great country for hunting! What were you guys hunting? Elk/Deer? Like your truck too by the way!

 

Thanks man. It really is! We were hunting elk and deer. I have a bull, buck, and cow tag. My brother filled his cow tag that trip last week.

 

Nice! Well if you're goin again I wish you luck!

 

.

What part of Idaho are you from? I grew up in Sandpoint myself. Great place to hunt.

 

I made some decent progress on the swap today. Now I need to rig up a cab hoist from my ceiling to aid in mounting. I need to order a new fuel tank for behind the rear axle and radiator for the bed. The frame will need cleaned up and painted too. Everything is going as planned so far.

 

Threw in my D43XL in my OME leaf pack today! Still gotta get axle relocation plates! Love the stance! Will come in handy when I haul the atv for hunting next weekend too!

 

I'm from Nampa but I'm hunting Hells Canyon by Riggins this season. Really steep stuff but beautiful out there.

 

Think i got him on insta.
