    Thanks everyone for making the meet happen. It was cool seeing all the trucks.

    Thanks John for entertaining the kids! And everyone that posted pics.

    We'll do it again next year!

    If anyone missed the meet and still wants a spray let me know. There's a little left.

    Will do!!!!, I've been doing a fair amount of research on the trucks as well and trying to get experience off road with it, the truck is a dream!. Hopefully a good stockpile of parts will accumulate over the winter

    Welcome aboard Matthew! Nice truck man.

    We definitely have to get together before next year's fluid film meet up. It's a must since we have so many new CT peeps now.

    Thanks Matt for hosting the meet I was fortunate that I lived close by and was able to treat both vehicles. It was good meeting everyone as well always a good time when you talk with other Toyota enthusiasts.

    @dcorbalis, you saw me follow you for a while on the highway yesterday, right? I waved when I passed you a bit before I got off, so hopefully you saw me. By the way, the guy in the Jeep that came with you yesterday, is he your boss, co-worker, or just a friend?

    That story about his little guy was fucking heartbreaking. Now that I have kids that stuff kills me.

    Thanks again for hosting that! If you keep doing it, I'll keep coming! Much appreciated.

    If any of y'all find yourselves in or around Boston, let me know! I'm always down to grab beers and talk about trucks.
