The Florida Panhandle and Surrounding Area Tacos Thread Thing

Ghetto/Redneck I know...but you could rattle can your current ones if no one has any.

 

OK guys. Serious note here and hopefully I can get some response back. I think I mentioned this a while back, but now it is becoming something to really check into. I have become a local member (local being Navarre, Florida, between Pensacola and Ft Walton Beach) of a off-road club. Originally it was a Jeep only club, but they really didn't care much for being "elite" with just Jeeps. So we are wanting to grow more and include others. The only "rule" is that you need to have a 4WD truck and be willing to actually go off-road. (though we do have one Jeep that is a Mall Crawler) I mentioned that I have some Tacoma buddies that like to wheel, and thought I might get some of you all here who are willing to actually go wheeling. It is not uncommon for us to be found on the reservation at least once a week, so we do go a lot. The 21st of this month we are heading for a place called "The Swamp" which is an ORV center with some pretty impressive trails. Is anyone here interested in joining a group of fun guys and several gals ( we have I think 2 female members who wheel) to get together and have fun? We also do fundraising events, and the proceeds have gone to Emerald Coast Wounded Warriors, a local non-profit that helps panhandle area disabled veterans. Anyone game? Come on, there has GOTTA be some people who want to go wheeling!

 

well...im out then haha

 

I know you have a bad ass built truck, but the trails we ride on are not 2wd friendly at all. hahaha

 

hence my comment lol

 

Yup, lol same here Alfuh. However, Im debating trading in for a 4WD once i get my truck back.... I think it would almost be worth it if I end up in Hawaii.

 

@EatSleepTacos I cleaned up my wheels really well and sprayed them with bed liner, I think they came out half decent. Much cheaper than buying a new set!


@BamaToy1997 i would be down! My truck is bone stock though I took it out on the range with Alfuh and she did great. If you think a stock TRD sport can hang then I'll come out to play!

 

anyone got $1,000 I can borrow off them???

I just bought a straight axle

 

Most of us have winches, so if you don't mind getting it dirty, you can come along. Alfuh, I would say that if you want to come out on the range and ride with us, you are more than welcome. I just don't know how hard you will push your truck. There are some areas that we run into that there is no way a 2WD could make it, but many trails have small bypasses, so it would be up to you. I just wasn't thinking anyone with a 2WD would want to try.

 

Hes just hatin on us 2WD Hate us cause they aint us.... wait that doesnt really fit here lol.

 

#prerunnerfolife I'd say when i finished my 4wd I'd take it out but at 4mpg or less that's a big expense. lol

 

Nope, not hatin'! I promise. I have just been wheeling with some prerunners before and we spent more time pulling them out of the mud and ruts than actually wheeling. lol.

 

I don't mind gettin her dirty, that's why I bought the thing! My fíance can't wrap her mind around taking out my new (to us) out on the range and get her filthy and some custom Florida pinstripes! I want to get serious with my new hobby but it's hard trying to talk her into droppin serious money if we don't go out that often. Maybe if we all link up and go frequently it would help my case!

 

Do you get on Facebook? If you do then search for "Panhandle Crawlers" and find the community group. Check us out there.

 

I luckily haven't been stuck in mine (knock on wood)

 

Right on I found you guys. Do you think my stock sport can negotiate the swamp on the 21st? I'm sure it's mostly the skill of the driver and I've only really wheeled once but I think I could hang if my truck could! I just don't want you guys having to yank me out the whole day.

 

im heavily considering buying that 1980 pickup I linked, already texted the guy and just need to talk to USAA and/or go into the bank for the money

 

when are you going to go look at it? I'm still trying to talk the ol lady into me taking over her moms 02 off-road and getting her something else so I can use it for a toy!

 

Nice man! When are you gonna go look at it? I'm still trying to talk the ol lady into me taking over her moms 02 off-road and getting her something else!
