Building Lady Lucille

Ive fished all those lakes and could fish them a million more times and it still wouldn't be enough. Cool video, bud. Thanks for sharing. Ive only heard tales of the Alpers trout. Have yet to reel one in. Someday....

 

Many many years ago I got the opportunity to real one in... not sure why we kept it as we usually catch and release but anyway..

 

Dooooood! So sick! Tight lines that day for sure!

 

Another from Death Valley:

Ubehebe Crater. It's a Maar Volcano created by steam and gas explosions when hot magma rising from the depths met ground water. The intense heat flashed the water into steam which expanded until the pressure was released as a tremendous explosion. Myself being a Navy steam engineer (boiler operator), I was especially taken a back by this massive display of beauty and respect of what nature is capable. For scale, my girl and I in the foreground. Look behind us down low - those little speckles are people.

 

Awesome truck! I wanna get out to DV to do some wheeling. I have been but only for a backpacking trip, and your pictures are making me want to get back!

I do agree though, the bottle opener is by far the most useful mod on ANY truck I have a one in the same location, mine came straight from the Coors plant in Colorado when I toured it!

 

Nice pics! And thanks for the explanation of the Maar volcano. It would have been epic to witness! lol

 

Thanks, man. Yeah, the bottle opener was the first thing I threw on even though on the 2nd gen double cabs there's like 6 bottle openers between the doorjams and tailgate. But you know, cool factor. Although the one pictured in my op is coming down because I'm installing the TC bed stiffeners there. Installed this one from a San Diego brewery recently:


Dig the kc lights. I know a couple guys that run your newest bar , the g6, I believe. So sick.

 

The place is massive as you know personally. Gonna take a long time to explore it all. Looking forward to it.

 

Hell yeah, I like your new one even more! I had a Belching Beaver beer here at a beer fest one time, I was a big fan.

And thanks! Probably our Pro6? I gotta agree with you haha, thing is pretty sweet. It just came out and there's a couple of the really built prerunners on here rocking it as well as some others.

 

Yeah, the pro6 that's it. I have the prinsu roof rack with 40" cutout. The pro6 is definitely a top consideration for my prinsu. My build is ready for an spod and lights next. Enjoying the build process albeit a money pit of a build. Haha. As for Belching Beaver there's a TW meet at their San Diego (Vista) location Saturday. Not sure where you're located but its open invite. They also ship their brews. That peanut butter milk stout is fantastic.

 

Hmm shipping you say?! Bout to order me some of that peanut butter milk stout....I love that stuff! I have a 6 pack of the same but from sleeping dog.

Unfortunately I am in Tucson, AZ so it'd be quite the trek for me!

And if you ever have any questions on the Pro6 or any of our other stuff just shoot me a PM or email or tag me and I'll be happy to help. I'm not too familiar with the Prinsu (Don't have one nor do any of my local TW buddies) but I am sure we have have an option that'll fit (FLEX or C-Series) if the Pro6 and that aren't compatible easily.

 

Ill be in AZ in March. Spring training every year, ya know. Haha. Ill hit you up. I need to hit more trails out there. I know of one guy that has the pro6 mounted to the prinsu. I really dig the 2 paired together. I think that's the direction I'm gonna go with.



Also, I'm GoBlue82_tw on IG if you so choose to throw around some follows.

 

Followed on my personal! That light bar and rack look excellent together. Thanks for sharing!

And yeah for sure, let me know when you are here! We will do a trail run for sure....there's a ton of AZ members on here too.

 

AZ

 

Sounds great. We'll get it going for sure.

 

I participated in this years TW Secret Santa and got my package today from tcScott. He nailed it with an Rtic tumbler, an outdoors French press (been eyeing it for a year), and a, drum roll please.....a TW sticker. Hence, tcScott. I only know his first name off the package. That, and he's from South Carolina. So cool of him to gift me these awesome goodies. Merry Christmas T-dub fam bam!

 

Evidently this build of the year is actually a thing. I glanced over the link and from what I've read is folks asking for votes (I voted for them if I knew them). But here's the thing, a build thread isn't what you've done with your rig monetarily, aesthetically; it's not how you hustled the money to get your rig to where it is. Its what what you have seen and done. Stock or 10 trillion bucks into the build. From weekend trips to week long trips. Its about the journey. The people met, the casualties conquered, the friends, the food, the everything that doesn't involve a dollar or a sponsor... The build is your thread. Your build thread. A build thread is your friends thread. Us friends are all winners

"Back in the day I was a kid, I'm not a kid anymore." Psssh! Yes I am.

 

Look'n good!
