    Hello all,
    Representing Killington, VT

    First time Tacoma owner and new to TW. After 4 Vermont winters with a 2000 2wd Ford Ranger from Florida with 212,000+miles it was time for an upgrade this past March.

    I didn't really know about all of these incredible class 4 roads all around me until after my purchase. I couldn't happier with my choice of vehicle!!!

    I'm always down for trail riding and meet ups with other members and enthusiasts. Just let me know.

    Thanks for the welcome. I only have a couple of pictures so far. When my new grille arrives I'll definitely get more up.

    Half way up a trail in Granville, VT a couple weeks ago. Got buried to the frame at the top of the mountain gap in DEEP snow slush/mud. Long, wet, cold, and funny story short.....rescued by a friends tractor with a winch 4 hours later.

    I felt the same at first....then I thought...To have this badass of a 4x4 and just drive it on asphalt with all these class 4 roads abound...NO WAY!!! If something were to happen, chances are it's going to get fixed eventually. It's so fuck'n fun seeing what she can and will do. She's a BEAST!

    They are pretty well equipped for off road as is stock. Done some light off road nothing major.
    Wife's cousin has a farm did a little muddling. That sucked got dirty and the mud smelled bad!
    Some logging roads in Lowell and a few class 4. Had to stop when it got narrower and rubbed too much.
    But they do go good!
    Nice truck by the way!

    I don't think he's on here but I've seen him in Montpelier. At least a 6" lift with wheel spacers and mud tires right?

    No, the 3rd gen I saw didn't have a shell and it didn't have a TRD decal on the bedside. Different truck.
