    I don't see any issues with that, we usually roll with the "more the merrier" attitude!

    "3 lanes are", I should say. Apparently my grammar is a tad off today.

    Hey guys! Im glad I found you folks. Newly back to AK (used to be up in North Pole) and i have been looking to find some other tacos to run around with and do some moding and expeditions. I come from the subaru world and decided not to bring my sti due to lack of fuel (running e85) and broken roads. Here is the link to my recent project... http://www.iwsti.com/forums/gr-memb...08-silver-hatch-part-out-topspeed-447whp.html I have a 12 Baja edition and would like to get it dirty, AK already welcomed the truck with a broken mudflap and cracked windshield but shes ready for more. As you can see im new to the offroad scene and am looking for some help to make me "smart" on wheelin 101.

    If you guys are still on to meet the 26th i will be there might not be able to stay to long becuase of work but still would like to meet and greet.

    Lol, that's hilarious! I totally think that you should, because it has the potential to be the largest caravan ever! And since Ben is our "fearless leader" he can run front center, with a Taco V behind :D

    If only we could get someone in another vehicle outside the caravan to take pictures when we are all rolling together, that might be kinda cool.

    Right on! I have modded on some VDubs but never an audi. They are good looking cars for sure. Sometimes i think they are a bit over engineered like the rest of the luxury sports.

    I will see you on Sat and around base im sure. Used to be a big AMC guy, so we will give this PACAF thing a shot...

    I actually thought about that as I was typing, trying to jump in and out without communication could get pretty sketchy lol. And +1 on the go pro I didn't even think about that, looks like I need to dig mine up

    I got my antenna and figured out a cool mounting location for it, now just a little more time to pull the trigger. Trying to be frugal before we buy our duplex.
