Fiesta Island Meet/Greet BBQ! Sunday 22nd

Lol

 

I'm in for the 15th still..

I'll bring some meat and/or a grill. And some cold ones.

I know a few guys that are members on T4R that would like to join in the niceties..... are we playing nice with the cousins?

 

Always! Tell them to come

 

They let the adopted folk (me) come. Lol

 

I have a Mercury mountaineer. Black sheep is an understatement.

 

ive always been welcomed I get some ford jokes here and there but always in good fun. I've had some bad times with xj groups being picked on but the Tacomas have always been fun.

 

Hell we've even had a Mercedes G-Wagon show up to an off road meet before
Performed much better then expected

 

The trick is remember that as a non Toyota you are guest. Lol. Every car has its weak points and good points. Don't 'show off' your stuff or bash the main course. That's where I had a problem with the jeeps. They just bashed me from the start. So I just asked if their other 2 cylinders was at home with the frame? They shut up pretty fast. Haha

 

That was CLEGHORN'D!That was my buddy Jesse's friends Mercedes.I just seem him recently and asked why he doesn't post much anymore on the forum and he said he can't keep up on the threads!

 

Tell him to just show up to some meets hahaha

 

I have!His work schedule at the Hilton(downtown HB)has got him locked down!

 

Wait.... I don't think FI was there when I left in'68 - what's the access? Where meeting? What's the ground - sand, gravel. asphalt?

asphalt to sand, its not deep sand though

 

Cool, might just drag the teardrop out with us, as long as we don't have to back up... Kind of a sore issue with us at the moment...

 

I've been to lots of events and never had an issue. I've taken a break for awhile working on my divorce (every mod takes longer than expected) but looking forward to hanging out and wheeling again.

 

Your good. It's open and not sand in places to park.

 

Awesome, thanks. My Ride-rites get here next week, I think I can have them on next weekend, be a good test run. Everyone can laugh at the NUGs if we bury it in the sand.

 

Saw someone that got stuck in the sand at fiesta island.

 

People get stuck all the time. Some guy had a rental pickup and a jet ski. Truck buried to the frame and water to the door. Aaa wanted $300 because he was too far off the road. I said I'd winch him. He said he would make it worth it. So I pulled him out. The trailer wheels were locked up from the seaweed. Lol. They had to pull it all out. Finally pulled him up to the dirt and he threw me $100. It's hard because the sand is soft and always up hill. Stuck peeps all the time.
