Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

Really? I was told at our powersports, when my buddy was looking into purchasing one, you could "preorder" (for lack of a better word) a 300 and they would import it or something... I got distracted by a RZR 1000t with Foxs next to the desk, hahaha. Maybe I misunderstood. Would suck if we didn't get the 300, bet that thing has some serious brap

 

Shit, now I need to call KTM USA directly and find out the score.

 

Nice work today @ChadsPride! We are riding again on Wednesday! Maybe slaughter creek trail next time.

 

Just spent 2000 dollars at BlueLine Expedition Outfitters on some Icon extended travel coilovers w/ resi & CDC valve. While they are being built its back to saving for the total chaos kit Check out BlueLine expedition outfitters for anything you need, he's an awesome guy to deal with

 

Grats in the purchase! Do you plan on doing a LT kit though? Almost positive coilovers are different setups...

 

Yeah, the coilovers are being assembled by Icon- gonna take 4-6 weeks. I bought them first and I'm saving up for the Total Chaos 3.5 kit now, hopefully gonna buy it in a couple of months. I bought the coilovers now because the TC kit can be at my door in a week, the coilovers are gonna take at least 4

 

im sorry. I took those off my truck in march

 

Ah cool, I was wondering why they were $2000 as well, glad you're on top of it can't wait to see it all on

 

Yeah the coilovers were about 2000, the LT kit will be about 2800, so I'm looking to be about 5000 dollars deep in the front end by September/October

The MUD guys would like more details on what exactly the cheeseburger loop is, also if there is a certain speed you guys plan to cruise at, as some people would like to bring their 40's and classic Toyota's.

They were also curious if you guys would provide stopping points for them to catch up if cruising speeds were too fast for them.

Thanks guys!

 

The .kml file for the Cheeseburger loop...I know its on the Houston Overland Facebook group "files" page, but I don't know how to upload it here. :/ And...I'm quite sure people would be patient and stop. Honestly, I think it would be amazing to have a big line of 'yotas both current and classic rollin' down the road. That'd be awesome!

 

any non-facebook link?

 

Just copied the file to my Dropbox. 100% non-official link. I'll leave it up for a bit for you;

Score!

 

Ok, so the 4Runner doesn't suck. If I gotta be without my truck, this is an acceptable substitute.

 

WOOOO, glad to hear they switched out your rental to something decent. Welcome to the dark side, at least temporarily.

 

Better than what I have now a tiny mazda 3.

 

The only part of the Runner I'd want to keep is the ride. Driving this, I could see softening my ride a bit.

I like it. Nice rig.

 

Coils in the rear = . It grows on you, especially off-road on washboard or gravel surfaces. The 4R just soaks up the bumps.

The stock springs/shock combo...sucks though. Bad nosedive when braking, and body roll while cornering.
