    91 west right before the 5.

    You: MGM 3rd gen, light bar up top, maybe ditch lights? (Wasn't focused)

    Me: Quicksand 3rd gen with the soft top and ditch lights.

    You pulled up next to me and flashed your bar, I rolled down my window and threw you a peace sign. I forget how to press switches sometimes to flash back.

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Saw a grey third gen on the 57 S around 8pm with some reflector tape on his tailgate... DAKINE? Something like that...

    He got behind me for awhile but my foot was heavy in a hurry

    Traded high beams with a lifted DCSB last Friday, 2/3, on the way up the 38 to Big Bear. There was a shit-ton of snow up there.

    Engage Offroad long travel front and rear with some fat tires.
    Totally failed to snap a pic, but grey newer gen doublecab on black wheels and lift with some kind of mesh like cage/rack against the cab in the bed. Spotted in the parking lot of Oak Tree Shooting Ranges this morning.

    That's pretty far from home, knowing where it lives. I should tell him/her, they are being less than sociable.:gossip:

    Yeah, pretty envious of his swingout bumper and fender clearance. Not sure if those are 35s or 33s.

    That's a ton of clearance with 35s, I'd be curious as to what lift he's using and what his CV angle looks like.

    Don't think I could get over having that short a bed doe. DCLBFTFW
