    I'm not 100% sure that I can make it down to Fiesta Island today ( fiancé had surgery earlier this week so I've been nurse, chef, slave boy all week ) but are any north county folks planning to meet up drive down together ?

    Unfortunately one of the few things that's satisfying about being a landlord. Having been there I know that it's not a fun job at all. Hope it all works out for you.

    Not the landlord but kinda acting on their behalf & I WILL NEVER BE A LANDLORD IN CA. !! Not after seeing first hand how fucked up & slanted the tenancy laws are, long over due to leveling the playing field....

    And plastic, some nuts, studs, washers n stuff.
    Oh and amazing attention to detail! :thumbsup:

    I did a 2nd gen one a couple weeks ago its snorkel season!!

    So what did you guys and gals do for the weekend?
    I had a ride planned for yesterday and met up with 4 other buddies and we all went riding our bikes near Canyon Lake in Murrieta, lots of trails out there. Problem was it broke 100 degrees and was almost 80% humidity, pretty nasty weather for such a physical sport!!

    One of our group came down a hill a little too hot, couldn't stop and did a flying W for about 10 feet and augered into the dirt straight onto his dome! Scared me a little, scratched his helmet pretty badly and while normally quite chatty he became nearly mute.

    So besides being overheated and ready to throw in the towel we proceed to find a bunch of other big nasty hills to climb up to see who would "Take the cup" needless to say our buddy "Forkie", the one who had that glorious crash earlier, became a spectator and took all the Woman's ways around the rest of the hills. And Out of our total group of 5 riders I was the only one to clean all the hills in a single try except for one, had to come down and try again but made it with ease, doing one more another time while 3 of them were stuck, struggling somewhere on said hill, making sure to give them a bit of roost on my way by, hahaha. I am always very thoughtful of others during our rides!

    I should have some video or pics at some point, waiting for him to post them up. I think he got the total crash on film, I was so glad I wasnt collected during his situation as I was off to the side a bit but had managed to stop, I was really hoping he wouldnt fixate on me! :fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed:

    If anybody here rides dirtbikes and likes tough technical riding let me know if you like punishment!:wave::bikewheelie2::bikewhoops:

    Jason, planning a 4WD Baja trip in September with some other Toyotas (all off road prepped). They want to do some low range stuff, so Mission Santa Maria is a possibility. Is there any worry about not having the half of the factory skid plate you couldn't replace because it was so banged up from last time I went there? Is that part of the plate only protecting the diff? Did it really protect anything or it alone was the only thing to get banged?

    i've got some 5100's for the front BUT ! No place to do them, drive way is too steep & all I have is a jack, my tools are in Nv. :anonymous: I DO have 19mm (3/4") wrench /socket & 17mm/ 14mm which for this would probably do. So I guess I'm wondering if someone would like to offer up a place I can do this mind numbing experience, I can supply the beverage of choice & some sort of condiment of your choice as well...Damn I miss having a nice level slab....

    Saw a sweet black Tacoma in Escondido today around 6pm off 9th street coming out of the gas station. Swing out rear bumper with RTT and rack, fiberglass all around. Front tube bumper with skull and AK47s. Never seen the truck in town before. Anybody's on here?! It was like the desert expo rig of death...sweet!
