    Sounds good. I'm not sure how my season is going to look yet but I am up at least once a month. I understand not wanting to take a DD in the dunes. I have a few vehicles that are toys and few that are not so which one depends on how hard its driven.

    I have had my share of YFZ's and am partial to them. I just feel a lot safer in a vehicle anymore, probably also partially because I'm getting old.

    I'm right there with you. Lower back pain caused by poor choices on track with YFZ450 in my 20s. Now enjoy driving around in the rail with the princess. Yep no worries just let me know.

    Well today is finally the day. My beloved taco is going to Toyota of Muskegon for her brand new frame. Got a few other odds and ends that Toyota agreed to put on for me instead of the old rusty pos stuff that’s probably gonna break coming off. Gonna be a whole new truck when I see her again.E9EB4D9D-8B91-49F6-BF52-EF0B0C53C5E1.jpg

    I wish my '04 would fail inspection. It looks like shit, but somehow is still solid.

    Detroit area is pretty vague. Can you list what part of Detroit?

    Well, I'd be working at the GM Detroit-Hamtramck facility if I get the job, and I'm curious about what nearby neighborhoods are like. I'd just like to bounce some living ideas off of a local really. I don't know which neighborhoods to avoid.

    Rent first and figure it out later. A realtor can help you find a rental in a nice neighborhood. Try that avenue.

    Thanks! I was looking at Silver Lake as a possible destination this summer. Have you gone there before?

    Nice to see so many fellow Michiganders! Just getting into the Taco world. Picked up a '12 TRD-S last week. I'm living on the west side of the state (Muskegon area) currently but find myself all over the state pretty frequently.

    Every since the photobucket meltdown, what hosting site is everyone using nowadays? It's been a while since I've been active on Forums (coming from olllllllo)
