    I have had the interior detailed professionally several times on my 4runner and still find red dirt randomly from last year. The outside I know I will never get it all.

    I'll never forget the journey me and @rjbiii took going up Solihull.

    I was slightly intoxicated and was like "dude we will be fine, just send it"

    Robert goes, ok! Revs the shit out of it (and at that point I think he's joking)

    NOPE
    We went airborne off the first drop, hit the embankment and lifted off again!!!

    Continued to roll up the hill until we could go no further and had to get our the recovery gear (huge shoutout to everybody especially @Mynameisbrandin for that)

    Hahah.. definitely a good time. I didnt think the rut in the bottom was that deep, or i probably wouldnt have gone for it so hard.. got up that first half the first time though!:headbang:

    Definitely glad you were along for the ride, it was real for sure:D

    You were definitely missed Chris!

    Man, the first coin op i went to today, i broke the stall.

    The second one fared better but when I got home, I found more so I am going to get it here shortly with Chads recommended method.

    Yeah man, the dust on the last 2 days has left a light red residue on my interior... cant wait for my next visit to Chads Official Detail Center.

    This was a hella fun and crazy run. And just like that, a 2WD legend was born!

    You would have made it for sure if you didnt have to stop. :)

    That was one hell of a winch pull! Next time we won't need so many breaks with the winch haha. Next on my list is to get a new one! But she did the job for sure. Pretty stoked I got to use it really! Held up pretty good figuring they sheared @rjbiii recovery hook bolts.

    Yeah man I think I saw him post on here too, not 100% sure though. I saw before me a stock 2017 taco, similar to myself a few short months ago, and shed a single tear for his wallet before I went off talking about TTC and the TW forums :devil:
