DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Isn't that how most folks like it?

 

From what I know of the Dallas folk, yes.

 

If thats the case, I hail from Lewisville. Not dallas. lol

 

Ya I also don't hail from Dallas as I'm atleast an hour away

 

Well, good thing I'm in Rockwall County and not Dallas County ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Made a sale thread for my wheels and tires, in addition to posting it in our thread.

Anything else I should say about them?

Is it worth listing them on CL?

 

I sold mine on CL pretty quickly, $300 for 4 TRD OR plus steel spare with 40K

 

That's it?

 

I mean, driving from Royse City to Las Colinas everyday is no stroll down the street. And I was actually mistaken. It's 90 miles a day.

 

Yup I drive 90 minimum a day.

 

Daily I drive 35mi for work. Between work, fun and 2 decent road trips I have put 8500mi on my truck in 3 months. I've been thinking about taking a trip next year over 7-14 days and putting 5k plus on just from that.

 

Had mine just over 3 mos now and ive put 9k on it.

72 mile round trip work commute

 

I really want to join for this but it doesn't look like i'll have sliders by then. Sliders are ordered but they prob wont arrive until Feb. I told my self no OR Parks until i have them installed.

 

Im only at 6k since June 23rd.

 

I did bridgeport without sliders and slightly bent my predator steps. If you were careful you'd probably be fine.

 

Whats the info on the january thing again? I cant find the post.

 

I may be fine. I put a nice dent in my steps when i was in Moab a couple months ago, 1 month after getting my truck. I'll probably risk it and go to Bridgeport anyway. I just dont trust myself completely to not do anything stupid!

I havent heard a date yet just january.

@NEWBIETACO seems to be the one that started the plan for the trip out there.

 

Which ones did you get? Im probably going with the bare finish from low range off road and having them pc-ed myself. Or just line-x them. Cheapest i've found so far with shipping and kick out.

After researching i decided on going with Mobtown Offroad. I really like the Bolt on design they use. I ordered them with kickouts and fill plates. I went bare metal and plan on just painting them myself so when they get scratched up i can just spray it again.

Just saw lead time is only 6 wks not 10 wks now! Maybe i will get them in time for the Jan meet!

 

Are those sliders bolt on or weld on? 4x is the cheapest I could find for weld on, $191 plus shipping. In stock, too!!! http://www.4xinnovations.com/2005--2016-Dbl-Cab-Shrt-Bed-Tacoma-Rock-Slider_p_74.html
