GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Any slider update?

 

Heres another fun army green toy. Not quite as cool, but I'm thinking of making it mine in the not too distant future.

He lives! Haven't heard from you in a while.

 

Yep. Going into powder next week.

 

Nice bro. You know I approve!

 

What's the typical cost to get sliders powder coated?

I'm sure it's way too premature to even consider, but I am already looking at things other than a minivan for my wife. We just both hate it and have hated it since day 1. I'm to the point that I think I've narrowed it down if we make a change (even though she is adamant not to change) and am already looking at offroad stuff.

 

@Seanb600

The Georgia Traverse might be right up the alley of what you were talking about. AND Memorial Day should be a 3 day weekend for most and it right around the corner.

 

Good question. I don’t know off the top of my head, I got those fools on retainer. Lol

 

Your getting good with those gifs son. I like that one lol
Also, did you Craigslist 5010 by chance? If your rolling that high up in the budget, might wanna look at one in the Atlanta area. I have seen a couple built ones in your size and budget as of recent.

 

The front end of my taco is going to be looking different the next time you guys see it.
Here is the Alum Baja Bumper from Demello Offroad...now in Black Magic.

It will be paired with an s8 BD Amber 30”, Squadrons, and a Smitty 9.5k

Simply badass.

 

I appreciate it man. We already scoped out his ride from his videos. Plus I saw your post on the trail report when you did it. Can’t wait.

Next time we head out I’ll be sure to throw it out in the getting out weekly thread too. My wife and I have planned this for some time now to get out in the woods and unplug and unwind.

 

I was looking at the Georgia traverse.
That’s the problem is memorial day is right around the corner. I bet a lot of people already have plans as do I. We’re probably gonna look at doing something like that next year. Also I’d like to find somebody that Has road the Georgia traverse trail before. I’m not sure but I think there are certain times a year that you can ride the trail.

 

Should I buy one of these for $100?

Not a bad setup for $100.

If you are willing to spend more and want a cleaner/easier to setup tent, check out: https://topperezlift.com/index.php/product/the-nomad-camper-package/

I do not have one I have heard good things.

 

anyone have a good alignment shop in the Athens area? We are moving up that way and need to get mine redone and haven't had much luck with my firestone lifetime one... they always say they can only set it to the toyota specs that are pre-programmed in their computer

 

The manager at Firestone near the mall of georgia used to be the trainer. After several failed alignments by other firestone shops, he was able to coach his guys on how to do mine properly. His name was Mike Robb if you want to try giving him a shout. I know that isn't quite the Athens area, but might be worth a drive to get it right. Plus, you and your SO (if you have one) can walk over to the mall while you wait.

 

Also of note, I bought the lifetime Firestone alignment four years ago. I have had over ten alignments done since paying for it. It is roughly the cost of two alignments.

 

Got it for $90. You're option is nice but my goal was cheap and simple. Not even 100% sure I'll ever even use it as I mostly just sleep in a tent on the ground but the opportunity came up so it got me thinking about one and guess I'll just always have it if I need it for those wet trips.

 

Dump truck just cracked my windshield!
Yeah me. Fuck
