Where Have You Off-Roaded Today? 3rd Gen

I'm not either. This is my first time. It felt weird to have it in 4wd and still not be able to catch any traction(while coming out)

 

Did the truck do more than you expected it to?

 

I wouldn't really say that it did something unexpected, but I'm used to being able to catch traction no matter where I am and I put it in 4wd. The fact that I couldn't was crazy. I guess my tires weren't meant for that(all terrain).. But while I was rambling in the pit, I had it in 2wd so I'd slide on purpose.

 

Snow wrecked our MTB plans so we took a little detour through the high Uinta mountains on our way home from the MTN house.


Found a nice little area to play and test out all the TRD OR features.

 

I regularly drive through San Francisco. Does that count? Have you seen the roads there lately?

 

Hot sprang season is in full tilt and I’ve been wanting to check these out for a while. Rough 11 mile trail down to the river but worth it.



I didn’t take a pic of the springs but this is a random one from the Googlez

 

Morrison jeep trail. Definitely an intense run.

 

Somewhere in Fairbanks on some backroad.

 

try old dale mine road!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

is there on in Alaska? There is an Old Dale near me. It isn't that hard I've done it

 

what? nah its not in alaska, its in Joshua Tree National Park in Southern Ca.

when i did Old Dale mine rd, it was pretty gnarly in August...

 

I took the day off Friday and headed up to Crested Butte, Colorado. It snowed Friday night, so the wife and I got to snowbust up to Daisy Pass trailhead early Saturday morning. Road had 3 to 6" of snow on it with small drifts up to 18" - perfectly doable. By the afternoon the sun had turned the road into an absolute muddy mess, which was a ton of fun. A great way to spend our wedding anniversary!

Looking up valley towards the pass:

A short way up the hiking trail, looking back down at the truck. Can you spot my Taco?

Looking out from the headwall, about 200' below Daisy Pass. Unfortunately the snow was getting too loose to continue up higher. You can see the Maroon Bells barely peaking over the mountains in the distance.

 

I did last January. I scraped up my skids, that was about it. We went down Berdoo, as well. Not as bad, just tighter in some spots

I love that area. Let me know if you have any questions about it

 

Found the end of a trail in Medicine Bow National Forest during my hunting trip.

 

Whitaker Point in Arkansas. 12 total miles of clay, mud and standing water as it rained.

my Taco is a 4x2. TC off, manual shifting, no issues. 4x4 is over rated

 

I high centered it last year and managed to get stuck in berdoo lol. Sat on the frame and rear left was off the ground. While right was buried in. Lmao. This was my Dcsb. Now i have a dclb..

 

oh wow. I had a spotter and I did Berdoo in the dark. did you have sliders?

 

On my SR5, nah. I traded it in shortly thereafter. Stepped up and got the trdOR. So there was no point. I do however have them for my new rig that i’m currently building now.

My spotter at the time didnt spot me so well.

 

Awesome picture that color was a close 2nd when i bought my rig.

 

are you still living down here? It says Fairbanks
