Oregon and Washington Truck Spotting

Just now in maple valley. New bike, who dis

 

I5 south in rush hour traffic.

 

A 3rd and 5th gen 4Runner and 2nd gen Tacoma once played a drinking game at Crystal: Take a drink for your model that passes by.



Glad this was a light day.

 

3rd genners be gettin druuuunk

 

That’s alpy and baker. Cry$tal is more 5s.

All the smart 3rd genners are dumping their saggy 300k rust buckets for top dollar and buying a GX.

 

I meant 3rd gen Tacoma's. I see more of those than everything else combined

 

Theres only one “3rd gen” in a ski lot.

 

Noice knolly

 

I’m just gettin into it, don’t know if I’ve heard of knolly before. Are they decent? I have a transition sentinel 29er

 

I feel bad for you hahaha

 

The bike you have is miles better. What build is it? I'm looking at a scout myself. I have a tr500 and a triple so I'm slightly biased

 

Probably had an especially bad alignment on the rear bumper gap on that side. It's a thing, but this one looks worse than normal lol. Or maybe the bumper was tweaked. Who knows.

 

Can’t remember the build name but it’s the middle tier. One step below the carbon frame. The guy I bought this from went to a scout because he like the maneuverability better. I’m still a semi noob so I don’t know if I would have faired better with a 27 vs 29 but I’ve seen tons and tons of transitions where I ride

 

I prefer a 27.5. But I'm 5' 8 and 160 pounds, it just fits me better. I tried a sentinel and It felt more like my downhill bike. That looks like Black diamond?

 

Correct. I live 10 minutes from the black diamond trails so that’s where I mostly ride. I have a friend that rides a sentinel so that’s what I bought. I’m 6’ 175 lbs. it definitely has more travel than I need at the moment but I’m sure when I get more comfortable jumping I’ll grow into it

 

Ya I creeped on it a bit more, it's the Xo1 build. Pretty damn nice rig. That bike would be fine at Whistler or Steven's if you ever ventured there. Not sure if your on Facebook or not but you should join Dirt Church Seattle. It's my buddies riding group, we go on group rides everywhere and have shuttles some times. It's a pretty good time.

 

Spotted this SR5 parked in front of us in Charro Viejo's parking lot in Grant's Pass
after we had dinner.


Cute dog!

 

I’ll definitely check it out

 

Oh shit, das me, what’s up!

 

Nice! Where we’re you riding at?
