    I run TC but DK is top notch also.
    If I lived in SD I may have gotten DK so I could support the local guys.

    The wife and I (and our Toyotas... and cats) will be moving in a week, north of Escondido not far from Nessy Burger, as mentioned above. I will be up for night runs and day runs at some point after that to Borrego/Ocotillo Wells so we can do some testing. I would be up as a ride-along if you have an empty co-pilot seat (non-smoker) once we are unpacked and settled.
    My 4x4 Off Road DC Tacoma is stock other than the 5100s all around and Ride Rite airbags in back.. plus the (4) Cree Off Road 60 watt LED lights that have hardly been used since I got them. Amazing light (two spots and two driving).

    I live in Escondido too and I’ll be setting up a couple of runs over the winter to Ocotillo and the abandoned Bradshaw Railroad Bridge. Likely one in November and one in December so it won’t be so blasted hot out there. Watch the SoCal Forum since others post runs in there too.

    Probably, but I’d prefer having some light bars to light the way.

    Good Morning, so I'm lifting my truck and slapping on some 285's. Where do you prefer to get an alignment done in SD and why? My first truck and looking for input, thank you! :thumbsup:

    Does the Poway place not care about LT? I know I have a lifetime alignment at Evans and they couldn't accommodate for my truck because the back was a little narrower then the front.

    True Line in El Cajon has always done a great job for me. Best to make an appointment though.
