    Hey all,

    I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Quintin and I recently moved here from Indiana. I’ve lived all over the Midwest from Chicago, to Kansas City, to Indianapolis, South Bend....and recently moved out to Seattle. Wanted a change of pace and definitely got it!

    I sold my 2007 350z before heading out here and purchased my 2017 DCSB OR in August. Since my purchase, I’ve taken it out about 7 of the 9 weekends I’ve owned it! Plenty to explore and nothing has held me back yet.

    Bummed I missed the Seattle meet up as I’m just now seeing it, but I’m always down to meet new people.

    I can be found @qmeli on Instagram if you’d like to see more Tacoma pictures

    Cheers!

    The first 2 are Cleman Mtn, northeast of Nile, WA.

    The last one is Bethel Ridge, just north of Rimrock Lake, WA

    Hi, Quintin! Welcome to the PNW, I think you'll love it out here. I spent a couple of years in Indiana myself (Purdue U) and then a bit over 10 yrs in Chicago before I returned to my roots out here. Don't miss tornadoes, hot humid summers and those 'Lake Effect ' snows at all. Don't get me wrong, I loved living in Chicago, just prefer the lifestyle out here. Looking forward to seeing you at one of the get-togethers soon! Nice pics, and great truck. Thomas.
