    I love this event. I'm crying big tears because I didn't get to drive this year. I did get to ride with my buds and that was fun. I'll be back next year as a triple locked ATRAC beast. I am getting to know all of these people from around the country.

    Best part about that rig (and the biggest reason I want one lol) it's powered by a 660cc 2 cyl, 2 stroke, air cooled engine

    They look soooo good in stock form, especially in your truck's color.

    Personally my favorite, along with that teal color.

    Couldn't agree more. When I bought it after the Cruiser, the plan was simple and the planned trip(s) was(were) long and the build would benefit it all, then pandemic and life events changed plans, and even though its awesome to look at, it just makes no sense. It's like when people build out an entire overlandy truck with their aux electrical and water systems and shelter and other bullshit....for their one camping trip a year lol. Not a club I'd wanna be in. I'd prefer a very clean, stock truck that's reliable and easy. No, "will this affect that," questions. Just drive it as Toyota engineers intended and use it as a tool. Good to go. (Fantasy level is full fresh paint too.)

    I'm a HUGE believer in, "Speed is a number, fast is a feeling," and I'm all for anything that puts a grin on your face.

    I’ve been thinking along the same lines. I’d like to go down to a 1.5” lift in the front with some milder springs.

    That's the number one reason I prefer my 2 wheeled rigs to be at the lower cc rating. IMHO a rig feels fastest when it feels like it's shaking apart under your feet. The best time of my life was riding an 88cc 2stroke moped with my big boy motorcycle friends. That dang bike of mine would do 57mph but it felt like 110mph when you're going that fast on the thing



    I'll have to re engage my Facebook and look for photos, thY thing was the best and I miss it everyday lol

    I've got a 1.5" lift on my truck with the base OME "lift" package... drop down to a 235 sized tire and you'll be fucking golden ,goose!

    Neighbor came by to finally see the baby, and they made me some homemade taquitos with homemade salsa on the side

    Double IPA is perfect for this
