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

Stop by on the next trip out to Bridgeport. I may be looking to go out there in the next couple weeks. Surely my SOS sliders and skid should be here soon...Going on 6 weeks now.

 

Lmk if you do, i need to check out the ones and twos there. Im nearing 5 weeks on the pelfrey bumper and sliders, only 5 more to go

 

I'm ready to head out there also. Just let me know.

 

I'm down to go also if I don't work and feel healthy enough. I'm putting in 60hr weeks right now, probably for the next 2-3 months.

 

You a tax man?

 

So i found this today. It is the same week as the Big Bend trip we have been talking about, but for the people that are not going.....

The crew over on Tundras.com has started a rally on a meet up in San Antonio, Saturday April 8th at Oak Hills Church, near Six Flags. Interest is quickly growing from all around Texas, and it sounds like there are some "die-hards" that will be coming from out of state. This seems like a perfect opportunity to showcase some Texas Tacomas and help support the Toyota brand. I know the forum is pretty active, especially for us Texas guys (and gals), so feel free to come and out and represent TacomaWorld.com.

The Tundra gang is working on getting some vendors out there, so anybody with some connections or "pull" with vendors would be greatly appreciated. I've already reached out to our local folks over at N-Fab (fingers crossed), and hope to hear back from them soon.

Details as follow:

SATURDAY APRIL 8, 2017
8a-10a
OAK HILLS CHURCH
19595 W I10
San Antonio, TX 78257

 

I'm thinking next Saturday (2/11) for Bridgeport. Looks like next week should be dry which works for me since I'm still finding mud from Barnwell.

The SATX meet sounds cool if a lot of Toyotas show up but I'd rather be out at Big Bend than standing around in a parking lot. Plus if it's anything like Cars and Coffee in Dallas you have to get there at 5am to get a spot inside with everyone else. Have we settled on which weekend for BB?

 

My buddy said theres a FWPD sponsored event at Bridgeport on the 11th. He's coming down from OKC with some Jeep guys for it.

 

I just checked their Facebook page and shows its an event to sponsor the fallen Little Elm officer. Day pass discounted to $15 per vehicle.

 

We have friends in town that day. Wife is going to a movie with her friend and her husband is hanging out with me all day. Might have to make a day of it and pull the side steps off first lol

 

Im down for the 11th.. get walked on by Jeeps. Im sure my friend with TX4WD will be attending.

 

I am leaning towards the weekend of the 8th still...

$15?????? DAMN!!! That is cheaper than the gas to get out there!! Haha. I need my sliders from @RelentlessFab!!! Supposed to be made this month!

 

Sounds like February may be another 2 meet month. I kinda like doing 1 at a normal bar/restaurant and the other at the OHV park, something for everyone.

 

Nope, my company just doubled it's clients and we can't keep up with the untill we get new employees hired. Taking advantage of the OT while I can.

 

@Zac of all trades

Any update on the BBNP trip or is that a no go now?

 

What industry is this?

OT makes TacomaWorld possible lol.

 

Big Bend National Park is still a go! I am trying to save money so i can buy gear for my truck, however i just spent $400 on a bachelor party this past weekend which has put a couple mods on hold....

I really want to get a IFS skid for my truck!! I just need to find a shop that can put one out quick for me and not rob me in the process. I almost bought one from Mobtown but that stupid bachelor party!!

 

Im all ears for any way I can make more money. Lol.


I also loathe one of my coworkers entirely.

 

Dude, it is super simple to put an IFS skid on! I did mine in like an hour.

Any ideas on the dates for BBNP then?

 

Tax return came in today. Still debating pulling the trigger on the US Offroad bumper and winch or saving a little longer for the Pelfreybilt bumper. After this I need to stop spending for the truck. I have another project being neglected.
