    Looks like a good time. If you were closer I would hit the trails with you.

    We like exploring the Manistee Forest, that is a little closer. This summer we shall do some camping / trailing.
    I saw that Rocks and Valleys has a Toyota day, we should keep an eye on that as well.

    I would be in for Manistee, its only 1.5 to 2 hour drive for me so no big deal. We used to do a couple runs a year up there with a small group on here. I am sure Jay would go also, he is from up there.

    I went to rocks and valley last year. It was a good time just have to make it more than a day trip next time. That made for a long day.

    Manistee is only about an hour away from me so I could be easily talked into going!

    Just checking in. Been off the forum a year or two. I traded in my 06 Reg cab 4by for an 08 double. It's a Sr5, according to the window Sticker it has limited slip and tow package.
    I need some tires soon and have to relocate the trailer plug since I already bent it. I'm gonna remove or cut the mud flaps so I don't break them off like the last truck.
    I'm in Grand Rapids. I'd like to get out and check out some trails this winter.

    Looks great. Looks like it needs to be tested.

    Haha yes it does!

    I finally got it out on Christmas Eve and went down some 2 tracks. I've never rode in anything that had this much suspension performance, it handled awesome! Cant wait to get back out again!

    Not in my area, I guess there's a couple inches over towards the Keewenaw. Weatherman says we may get a couple inches in the next few days but with as warm as it's been all the swamps are still open and that's where most of the trails go through.

    So I finally found a topper for my truck, had to "road trip" to Akron, OH from Lansing to get it, in turn I have a trifold tonneau cover for a 2nd Gen DCSB, not the best but it'll keep the snow out of the bed, figured I'd offer it to the MI Taco owners first, I travel all over, SE MI(DTW) quite a bit so I can help w delivery. PM me for details

    Hey fellas. My girlfriend lives in Tawas. About an hour and 15 minutes North of Saginaw. Are there any trails near there? Like Huron National Forest?

    So how is everyone doing in the snow? I had to get out tonight and rip down some dirt roads to get a feel for the new DuraTrac's. I think I have too much air in the rears or my leafs are shot. Bumps and RR tracks hit harder than the firestones. Traction is incredible though.
