I see your pals on SVH crew flying over my house a few times a week.

Nice rig! I'm up your way, Penngrove. There's a few of us in the area. Should do a meetup...

 

Can't find you. JBCM12, only TW members I see is Alex, George, Jerry, and Vin

 

Where's your house at? they have a pretty good sized response area with mutual/automatic aid included

 

I think I just found you. Sorry I'm jwenzel20

 

Gotcha. Wouldn't mind a last minute meet this weekend.

I'm into it. In n outs always seem to have good parking lots for car meets

 

san jose has way better asian food than east bay its not fair

 

Santa Clara. It's gotta be a routine flight-always the same.

 

hmm thats way too far south to be a routine flight. what color is the one you're seeing?

 

Nice! If its still at the helibase there I painted the Sky Crane on the chair back. I'm the assistant center manager in the ECC (destroyed an ankle on a fire). I worked on the Modoc for 10 years, the Mendo for 7, and now Tahoe for a couple

 

OMG Just came back from the Toyota dealer. A 2013 single cab base non 4x4 truck is 23,999.

 

right on. I like the tahoe. hopefully I'll get back down towards the Tahoe or Eldorado in the next few years. I haven't noticed one in happy camp. the new building here is like 5 years old I think.

 

Get out! Sticker, or "additional dealer markup." ?

 

Sticker! I got my non TRD AC 4x4 with power everything, cruise and tow package BRAND NEW for less that that OTD.

 

Something doesn't add up here. There's some option on that truck you're not telling us about? According to toyota.com Base price 5 lug is still a little over 18K.

I'm thinking it had to be a 4x4 - this is what I came up with for a single cab 4x4 4cyl automatic on the toyota configurator.

All that said - that's STILL like $3000 more than I paid for my reg cab 2011 4x4 5sp OUT THE DOOR INCLUDING TAXES.

 

On the plus side - I'm glad to see for 2014 that they're once again offering the reg cab 2.7 5speed manual transmission as an available configuration in our area.
