    Greetings, TacomaBro's and Gal's

    I am looking to do a little exploring in Colorado for a couple of days on my way to Utah. I was hoping maybe I could get some recommendations on what/where I should check out. looking for day trips, cool sites to see, waterfalls, lakes, beginner level fire roads/trails ex... Also any suggestions for lodging, and dinning. I would prefer to stay in ProAmerican areas but I can get along with most people so not a huge issue.

    My setup:

    2015 2.7l 4x4
    access cab
    stock suspension
    Toyo AT3 SL

    Thank you, Ryan

    It's actually looking like I'm going to keep it. Makes too much sense to keep the Tundra stockish for towing and yard work.

    Was this pretty recent? I forgot exactly when I went, but I was up at Chinns lake one weekend (a shit show) a few weeks ago and on the way down, rescue vehicles were code 3 hauling ass up the road as I was coming down. Looked up the SAR site and saw someone was injured cliff diving at st mary's. Didn't know they died.

    Over time light build is likely. Just not the main focus until the vehicle value drops to a more comfortable thrashing level.

    They airlifted him out and tried to revive him but I believe he died on the way to the hospital. He was under water for a long time.

    Alpine rescue was up again today for another injured hiker. I have yet to get any details though.

    Thanks! I'm going on one full week already and still haven't heard back. I usually do private party sells so this is my first experience with a local shop... Is it normal that I had to pay for it all upfront before they can run the background check??

    Went to Jackson Creek Armory in Sedalia. The guys behind the counter were super helpful and friendly so I decided to purchase from them. Tried calling a few times today to check on my status but couldn't get a hold of anyone. I know there's a back log with these background checks but I wasn't sure if it's gotten worse within the past week or so. I'll try again tomorrow and hopefully I'll be able to pick up the bday gift to myself..
