Where Have You Off-Roaded Today? 3rd Gen

i got screwed when buying my current 16. i have a 14 TRS sport 4x4 and i traded it under the impression my 16 on order was a 4x4 so i trade my 14 2 weeks before taking possession on the 16. toyota said sorry not sorry but gave me a credit toward up grades. trust me i wish i had a 16 4x4 but it is what it is now

 

Wow that sucks! What dealer was that? I got a 2wd by choice because at that moment I just wanted to lug my stuff around on the dirt but being on TW makes me want to go out and try this fun stuff. I figure if I really actually get into it I can trade up in a few years and after a few raises.

 

Nice, how was Mt Antero? I'm heading up there this weekend to climb it. Did you go up the Baldwin Gulch jeep road (277/278?) or did you go up Brown's Creek? I was thinking about seeing how high I could get up the Baldwin Gulch road.
Went down to Medano pass last weekend.. was a pretty fun little drive. We went up the east side and camped just over the pass. Came back over the pass because I wasn't sure how high the water crossings were this time of year.

 

That sucks. Dealers are the worst.

 

Cool to see a 2wd out there doing it.

 

Monashka Bay, Kodiak AK. Working the suspension in 4LO going up the hill. Took me a minute to find a good line up.

 

Made it up Bolam Pass in Southwest Colorado for the weekend. A cracked rear bumper and dented skid were the only casualties. The view wasn't great because we're in the clouds.

 

I don't either, but it did answer my question that the locker does not limit your mph. Can anyone else confirm this?

 

My original question got twisted. I don't care ware it tops out, just that it does not top out at something like 3mph like I thought I read somewhere.

 

Had a buddy who does car advertising photographs do a portfolio shoot for my truck for future events/sponsorship's... pictures were taken at Prairie City OHV in northern California. nothing compared to the good stuff down south but i had to work with what i had local for the shoot... enjoy! (i'll post up the actual photos from the shoot once he's done editing and whatnot...)

 

Anyone know of any spots in or around Charleston, SC? The wife and I have been dying to give the 4x4 some exercise!

 

@odinsbro15 has driven with his locker on real fast in a 2 wheel drive or

 

Nope...but you do have to go slow to engage 4 low, if not complete stop.....pretty sure direction are on your visor.

 

Believe it needs to be in neutral for 4lo. You really can't go fast when engaged. If you want speed and 4wd put it in 4hi.

 

Right. Locking diff isn't changing gear ratios. You just can't turn for shit when engaged. The back wheels just skip off the ground. Remember when I was in my teens. My buddy welded his diff for "drifting", could go fast but turning sucks.

 

Sand lake dunes, Oregon.

 

VA Highlands

 

Usal Road along The Lost Coast in CA.

Technically yesterday, but I haven't been near technology.

 

Vedder Mountain





may or may not have dented my lower fender/door badly LOL ah well lesson learned, was a fun time for sure. I need some tires/lift/rock gaurds before I go out again for sure

 

Now you can stop worry about door dings and use it!. Last time i took mine out i was scraping my cheapo runner boards.. Time for sliders and skids i suppose..
