Western Massachusetts Tacomas

How was the show?

 

It was pretty good a large group of different vehicles all around. A ton of groups came together and represented there class and cars. Not a ton of toyotas though. Just me and a 1st gen 4runner.

 

Wow, that's too bad there weren't more Toyotas. Great weather for it today.

 

Hey guys. I have a new (used only 2 weeks) Aries bullbar im selling. I changed my mind and want something else. It is in mint condition. Ill take $150 for it. Pickup only. Id be willing to meet somewhere etc. Pm me if interested.

 

I would have gone but they shipped my ass out to Oklahoma on Saturday!!

 

So I'm just passing 11500 miles on my 2015 and I'm noticing a squeak in what's seems to be the leaf springs. It's pretty annoying and definitely shouldn't be happening. I've watched a few videos on where the problem is. Anyone else have this issue?

 

I don't have any issue with mine (yet). My other Toyotas did though. I think there are a few threads about the squeak. You may be able to apply some of the Dakar ideas there.

 

Looking for a late model (2013-2015) 2nd gen. for a friend that wants to buy one.
He has a Nissan right now and has finally seen the light.
Let me know if you hear of anything.

Thanks.

 

Mabell takes another truck.

 

Driver okay?

 

Yeah he was good we arrived after the impact. Think it was a love tap and the nose bar kinda did its job and kept it from fully rolling.

 

Hey.....there he is! We were hoping you were still snooping.

 

Yo! You are back!

 

How the heck?!?

 

Too high in the front? Most really built up rig's will hook up to there front axle to suck down the front end so they don't roll over so easy. Sometimes it just happens anyways.

Really built FJ40, 350 Chevy, 1 ton axles, 4 link front and rear, ORI's, 40" tires


After it was flipped upright


Next truck wasn't built as well but sucked down the front end and walked right up

 

He was going down it. We assume too fast, and just kept going once it started have zero idea since it was before us.

 

Got ya

 

That's right at gate keeper right? I've got a few dents from that trail.

 

@js312 I see they put up a speed monitor on Williams right after your shit went down.

 

It's absolutely astounding. I actually have an email from the city engineer saying that the signage is wrong, legally they need to confine the 20 MPH to only when students are present, and he recommends the signage be corrected and all other school zones in the city be "evaluated for proper signage." This was a Friday and the PPD was cc'd on the email. The next day (Saturday), they put up the radar sign. I'm convinced they are bitter now that their speed trap has been challenged.

I go 30-35 through there during non-school hours now. During school hours I'll go 20 through that 600 ft section only. They can stop me all they want. 30 is prima facie, 35 is what all the surrounding similar roads are (Pomeroy, Williams). They can write whatever they want, I will win every single time.
