TEC || Ardbeg Fall Run 2020 (Oct 2 - 4)

Depends how much you like your trailer, or the stuff you stowe in it. I’ve seen 5th wheels setup at the beach, but those ppl must spend lots of time putting all their dishes back in the cupboards.

And booooo to generators.
Just gotta layer up for cold. First cotton, then flannel, then fermented , then dehydrated

 

Easy can fit it in there, as long as that generator powers projector for movie night and fridge for my cold beer!

 

kidding about the trailer...but the genny powers a beer fridge coffee maker couple of heaters. What you really want me to bring is my deep fryer...shore lunch, chicken wings hell a turkey isn't out of the question.

 

So.....I usually carry a fridge and can power a coffee maker with my inverter. Propane heater for me....cast iron pot for everything else

So I will ask the total newb question....what are the MUST haves for this outing?
Im talking truck wise.
The camping thing I can piece together. I think.

 

2019 TRD Sport........Bone Stock...

I'll let the more experienced answer this....

 

we do recommend skid plates. sliders arn't as mandatory but are useful.

But skids are recommended for the environment, at least engine/ trans. when i went last year, OEM TRD OR pop-can plates took hits and dented easily.

you can do it with TRDOR plates but you'll need to pick your lines wisely much like i did.

 

Thats why I'm asking.
I figure the obvious...lift, tires, plates, winch, tires.

 

Did I mention tires?
Hang on I gotta get more coffee.

 

i went in with Stock suspension, stock skid plates, Stock tire size 265/70R16s KO2s (which i have for sale atm)
and saw no issues other than bumping the bottom a fair amount.

just need to be careful and wise with what you're doing

the other guys will have better recommendations as they're more familiar with the trail

 

Any lift with that set up?

 

no lift, stock everything other than the tires being KO2s and a set of rock sliders.

there are by-pass trails we can take to get around things that might be too challenging or we don't want to risk damage. so you don't need to worry all too much

 

Sweet! Although I have made bad decisions in the past.

 

we also have like 20 people going, 18 of which will probably have recovery gear, and 10 of those have winches


you are not gonna be stuck for long, if at all.

 

Tell me about it brother, Tell me about it........

This is one of the best groups I have met 4 wheelin and that's over the last 16 years.... you in good hands man. Come knowing everyone is there to have a good time and do some trail clean up.... and don't let peer pressure get to you like it dose to me haaha

 

Safety in numbers!
Thats good to know...I can't make it this year but 2021 looks promising.

 

In 2021 you'll need a locker front and rear
37" tires and dual transfer cases

 

@tacoma16 has stuff planned for this. Still waiting for him to announce it otherwise i'd just say it myself

but yes, we might peer pressure you to tease you to try it - be we don't expect you actually do it.

 

can always ride shotgun with @Norilsk
