    If anyone in the area is into fitness, lifting, owns a gym, knows someone that owns a gym, etc.... I recently purchased a fitness equipment manufacturing and supply business. I am equipped to fully outfit a commercial or home gym and have several suppliers to choose from for bars, weights, dumbbells, and everything else. Please help me pass along the word! Thank you!

    I made a thread to describe what I have here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/fitness-equipment-manufacturer.472629/#post-14273358

    Checkin in here from the St Cloud area. Can't wait to find somewhere to To get off the pavement. I've heard there's a little place to screw around off road by the quarries...

    Hey you MN Tacoma guys - I'm looking to get a TRD cat-back exhaust and a lift on my truck. Before I pull the trigger on either, I'd like to hear what the TRD catback sounds like and also get an idea of just how big of a lift I wanna get. Seeing photos of lifts vs in person would help me really determine just how high I'd want to go.

    I'm in no urgent rush, but anyone in the twin cities area able to meet up sometime that has either a lift or TRD cat-back exhaust? I live and work outta West Bloomington area.

    BTW, this weather has sure been goofy. 64° yesterday and possibly 6 inches of snow for Friday...Crazy!!

    lol. Do NOT go meet Chris, because then you're just gonna want 35" tires. (I'll help with suspension install)

    Going up north this weekend to camp - right when the cold comes back. But still, I won't complain about mid-20's for February camping. 40 would have been nice though.

    Can't let that happen! I'll bump this thread from Bemidji. That meet up you guys had at Foothillls State Forest looked like a great time. I'm waiting to hear if TM Autosports can get my truck in tomorrow for a little lift and new tires. Then I might be ready for it.

    Ahh so you're the Chris I hear so much about. I went to Finland with Forest, poweredbysoy and others, met Henry too who said you helped him with his lift.

    I plan on a lift eventually but not my priority right now.

    Where you headed? I was thinking of doing a superior hiking trail trip, but its hard to convince any of my friends to go camping in the winter.

    edit: oh also @PoweredBySoy, if you want I have a few extra dash cams now. I can give you one, the catch is any crash vids or out of the ordinary footage you capture I get the rights to for youtube.

    i got a few, A118, A119, street guardian sg9665xs, a joovuu x (although that one I need to do some testing with still), street guardian sg9665gm (older a118 battery based model).

    Chris is a wizard.

    Not entirely sure yet. I just want to get some hiking in. Probably Tettegouche and/or Temperance. Maybe Eagle Mt.
    Forrest and Raul are going with. But we're not doing any wheeling so they're just jumping in my truck and we're carpooling. :oops:

    The A119 was the one I was going to buy! I'll throw you a few bucks for it, man.

    Fun, I was thinking in the next month going up around beaver bay and hiking to one of the trail camp sites.

    I'll send you a message about the cam.

    Oh yeah, Bean and Bear lake is one of my favorite sections. I've done it multiple times.

    Destroyed both of my brand new TRED 1100's this weekend from a single snow recovery. Both cracked right down the middle. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::censored:

    Chris and Forrest have the Pros', and they've worked awesome - as you've seen.

    I submitted a warranty claim and I've already gotten an email that TRED is sending me out a new pair. So I'm pretty impressed with their service. But I'm tempted to just sell the new pair and get something better.
