    What is ya'lls favorite off roading to do? Play in the snow, or mud, or trail riding, or rock crawling?
    I like muddin pretty good, since thats all there really is to do where I live, it stinks. And playing in the snow is fun but it usually only comes once a year!
    Lets see your taco at work doing what you love!! :D

    Ah got ya, being from NC we have no deserts :( so no riding of that kind all we get to do is mud really, and the only good place I know of is now cabled off and noone can get in anymore. And the woods are too wooded so no trucks can fit. My town is terrible for taco play.

    I wish I knew of some trails around here. Or anywhere, really. A lot of guys around here do illegal off-roading.

    Pope: Nice truck! When I was 12-13, my dad had a red 93 just like yours. V6, 4x4, extended cab, graphics, etc. I learned to drive (and drive stick) in that truck out on some land of ours. I was supposed to get it as my vehicle when I turned 16. But it was a 5-speed and my dad's back started hurting from shifting it, so he traded it in on an S-10. But I'll be damned if I don't miss that red Toyota.

    The criss cross ruts around here are great. In the spring when the snow melts it likes to flow down the trail and dig out deep ruts... they make for some good 3wheel teeter-totter moments. I keep the locker on for those, always at full flex!

    The runoff exposes some fun rock sections too.
