Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

We started in Bordertown around 9 & got back around 5

 

Definitely going to the Ultra 4 Nat's this weekend, @Mademan925 and @Mrs.Mademan925 coming up to go with us as well. I think this is our 4th year in a row going to them, IMO it's the can't miss motorsports event of the year for our area.

 

Anyone know of some decent places to rent in Winnemucca? Tiny or small with a garage would work.

 

Hey @nvnv I saw you asked in the VO thread some questions about the Vagabond. And @Porter707 is coming to town this weekend...

 

Yes I will. I can meet up with you Thursday/Friday if you’d like.

 

Beer meet?

 

I’d really like to check one out in person. Thinking of putting in an order soon so it’s ready for most of next years camping season.

 

I’m down for that!

 

Agreed. I'll see ya there

 

Here's my TSB-0062-18 update story for y'all:

Had my 15K check up last Friday at Dolan & when I dropped it off I told the service advisor I spend a ton of time up at the lake / driving steep roads & have read up on this software update & want it done. The kid had no clue what I was talking about & I had to go to work so I asked him to call me after he spoke to his manager about it. He called me back & clearly had been instructed to tell me they won't which I pushed back on. He finally caved & said they can request a technician take my truck for a drive because they "can only do the update if they have actual evidence of symptoms." I agreed to this since it was my only option.
When I picked up my truck he explained the tech couldn't replicate the issue (which was no surprise) but instead they gave me the software update TSB-0125-18 that's supposedly similar but not identical. He was not knowledgeable enough to explain the difference between the updates. The whole experience was 100% on-brand for Dolan: they didn't do what I asked & couldn't explain why they took the action they did. If you're planning on getting the update done at Dolan, I wish you better luck than I had.

Does anyone know anything about TSB-0125-18?

 

I like these places

Jason @jberry813 wants to try Shoe Tree & meet us 1/2 way for a change

And Eric @RelentlessFab likes

So where & when are we going to meet?

 

JBerry is going!? I'm out.

 

Only if we go to Carson cuz he's a big baby

 

Haha I'm just talking shit, I'm down for wherever.

 

I figured you were

 

That’s some serious mental gymnastics they pulled. We couldn’t recreate the issue so we’re not giving you the TSB you asked for but instead gave you some random TSB we can’t explain.

What’s it say on your paperwork? They also put a sticker under your hood. I haven’t heard of that TSB and when I searched I didn’t find anything.

There are multiple TSBs that all point to the same update so it’s possible you got it.

This is why when I go in there for an update I act dumb and tell them the exact symptoms as what’s on the TSB but don’t really hint that I know there’s a TSB for it. I feel like they’re more likely to do it vs. telling them to just do the update.

 

I like Revision. They have decent parking and big group areas depending on how many are going.

 

Thats the same flash they did on our 2017 when we asked for the stumble TSB to be done..... after a month of driving we can confirm it still stumbles.
From what I read on that flash they did it is to smooth RPM at idle when steering load is applied. Not what our issue was.

 

I work in Sparks, I'm in.
