    Deer valley is super fun, but the tacomas will eat it alive! And seths fj may just fall asleep on that one!

    Eagle lakes is great all around... views.... o man stoked for that drive....

    Slick rock should be interesting.... Hopefully everyone can do it. I know its a 6 but the local jeep guys ran that trail with 31's and almost no body protection and made it through just fine.

    I am broke so I am going to stay on the NV side. lol

    There is a trail at Dog Valley by crystal peak that has free camping and has a back road that goes all the way to truckee and pops out just before bear valley on hwy 89... I dont want to air down then have to air back up so this way I can avoid that. The only thing is its a good distance but its completely off road and goes behind all the reservoirs.

    Yeah Eagle Lakes is cool we ran it last year a stock truck and do it I did it lifted with stock tires and had tons of room.

    Slick rock is a little more challenging the stock guys will have to be careful on that one but a lift and sliders and your golden on that trail.

    I am down! The rubi on tahoe side is sweet! but prob have to do a different trip because of all the people on it.... Its become more of a highway and less of a trail. My uncle went and said he spent more time waiting for people than on the trail it self.

    JLEE, I am stoked to see your truck... you have done some major upgrades since bv..... How is it working out for you so far? My buddy has your same model and wants to kind of go in the same direction as you.

    Yeah really the only mod needed for a 4x4 to hit slick rock is rock sliders.
