    Well I was lucky enough to be contacted by 4wd Toyota Owners magazine (if you don’t know what this is, you shouldn't have a Toyota...haha...go check it out, it’s a great mag).

    Anyway, their photographer, Joel Moranton (www.Moranton.com) was cool enough to jump in my rig for a day of wheeling and pictures. I must say, this guy is talented! the pics speak for themselves, my truck really isn’t this pretty, it’s all his photography skills!

    I am not sure if I will actually be in the mag yet, that has to be determined later once they examine the other 2nd gen competition, but the opportunity was cool enough for me. anyway, here are some pics:

    Yup, We will be there again for sure. We may end up doing a hotel this year instead of camping, but I will let you know as we get our plans set.

    Right on man. We will hopefully be set up camping in the same spot right by the shuttle stop in the archery area again. We've managed to snag the same spot the last 3 yrs. We'll be the white DCLB with the tent on it.

    How long did it take you to fab up the changes you made to your Allpro That is good news for the summer! light hoop? I just picked up 3 Strikers for mine and I'm trying to figure out the perfect mounting spot. I unfortunately can't weld so I will have to rely on a shop to help out.
