Northern Virginia Roll Call

I haven't eaten in almost a month; when's our next dinner/beer meet?

 

Thats a great question. First week of may...

 

Matter of fact. I know where the next meet SHOULD be.

DOGWOOD

http://www.dogwoodtavern.com/

132 West Broad Street Falls Church, VA 22046 | 703-237-8333



Lets do it TUESDAY, that way we get the happy hour specials on brews & tuesdays they have seafood specials.

Snow Crab legs 2-3 for $8
Muscles - $3
clams - $3
Raw oysters
Shrimp

and others.

they have wings too.

 

We need to do a Waterfront meetup too. In oldtown. Maybe June?

 

I am moving to Chesapeake Beach first week of May. If we want waterfront, I can accommodate that.

 

Would have to be a weekend thing.



FAR! Then again, we are stepping in on MD meet territory.

 

what MD meets?

lol jk. But really, the MD guys have a meet like once a year. I'd be down for it, but then again I do live in MD and am planning on heading out that way sometime this summer.

Falls Church sounds great to me, and so does Alexandria. They're actually easier for me to do than some of the other locations!

 

Yeah, the reston/ chantilly/ 66 meets kill me. Seems that has been the only direction the meets have been.

Dogwood is not bad due to the location. It is 2 min off 66 and 10 min from me

 

MD Meet Territory?



We do 2 hour drives to GWNF and go wheeling. If people don't wanna drive 45-60 minutes for free beer and hot dogs, then that's more for me I suppose.

 

And we have a Weiner!

 

Instead of Tuesday night could we do a different night? Tuesday night is already overbooked for me by other activities.

 

I/m there every tuesday. Crabs and catchup time with friends.

 

If anyone wants a free case of beer I could use a hand diagnosing my new head unit install. Everything works but my subwoofer and I cannot figure out why.

 

Use the white spray lithium grease on your hinges. you can actually use any type grease, but the lithium will not wash away as easily. Also always grease the door check straps too when you grease the hinges. Trust me, I'm a 53 yr old autobody, frame and suspension mechanic. Been at it for 35years now. I've seen many car/truck owners neglecting a groaning door hinge for too long and it will cause the spot welds on the stud plate inside the door(that the hinges bolt to) to break loose. Once that happens the door frame will start to tear/crack and rust.

BTW, I'm new to TacomaWorld. Been lurking and reading it though for about a year. Just traded my '02 extra cab SR5 4x4 in March for a new '14 access cab TRD Sport. Just lifted it today, and the wheels and tires should be arriving in the next few days(hopefully).
I live in Front Royal and work in Sterling. I've been into off-roading since I was 20 and never grew out of it!

 

I can help you call or Txt me 2moro

 

Welcome!
That's quite a drive you have to do every day.

 

Where at in sterling. I work in sterling at a high performance shop

 

@Craftsman Autobody on Lane Ct.

 

I know. That's why I've only had the truck a month & it's already got 4300 miles on it. Other than that I don't mind it. Been commuting that much or longer since 1979...down here is where the money is at.

 

Just saw an early 1940's 1-Ton Dodge tooling around McLean. Thing was lifted on HUGE MT's, had a winch bumper, and it was caked in mud.. it was pretty awesome. haha I guess someone is wheeling it pretty hard. I was driving the other way though so I couldnt get a picture.
