    Think I've seen your truck quite often. I remember that back bumper.
    I drive a white access cab with black wheels and flares.

    That you did. I remember seeing your truck with the topper and the rear bumper and thinking "I wonder if this guy is on TW?" Haha. Nice looking truck you got. I'm still building on mine. At the current stage I am working on finishing up the slider build and getting them installed. Then I have several rock lights and accent lights to install. I also have two different steel air tanks and an onboard air compressor system to complete. I also have BAMFs 1st gen shock relocation kit that I have to put together and install. (Looking at getting some FOX shocks for the rear for this kit) Following that I am planning on a tubing modification to my bed rack so that I can install my 50" LED bar over the cab. Once all of THAT is done, then I will see what else I will do. I do want to install a snorkel kit at some point before I get too deep into some of this Florida swamp. Haha.

    It's not so much strict. Here in HBTS they actually have a company that drives around and checks for compliance violations on the weekend. They have to ding everything I guess so that they can justify their cost. I got two dings, one was for parking a vehicle in the grass. I didn't realize that it was a violation or I would have had everyone in the driveway. The second was a complaint that I was running an automotive repair shop out of the garage. Once we explained to the management company that it was just a get-together of friends who were just doing small little repairs, they dropped the matter and just suggested we try not to be so obvious. lol. It did look strange to a neighbor I talked to the other day. He said with all the hoods and doors up it looked like a Toyota dealership was opening up next door! Haha.

    I'm here for knowledge folks, please feel free to inform me. Expedition Essentials Track Mount Weather Tech floor liners and window vents K&N air filter Summit Dakars in Matte Bronze -25 offset King suspension from Filthy Motorsports MESO customs white/red interior lights and MESO customs gasshole
    Before you do the accent lights you ought to get your front blinkers back to a legit status and before you do anything, match the slotted rotor you have on the passenger side on te drivers side so next time you have to smash the breaks, you don't have to counter steer!! Haha!
    Any chance you have a large gate into your back yard? Next time we cound just park in your huge back yard, out of sight out of mind..

    Actually my front turn signals are quite legal. And I do have the other rotor. I just didn't have enough time before the meet to install the rotor and the CV shaft on the left side. As for the back yard, I will have to check and see what the HOA says. I have to live here and I don't want to ruffle feathers if I can help it.

    Not at all. I plan to have somewhere between 3 and 4 gatherings a year. So next time I plan a gathering the thread will come alive again for sure. Other than that of course everyone is free to post whatever they like. lol

    OK thanks BamaToy . Just found it strange when i chimed in on the thread there was no response / reply for almost a week. That is what lead me to wondering. Just been doing stuff to my truck little by little . Updated my interior lighting & under hood lighting all to l.e.d which i love over the stock crap & slowly settin up my truck for camping/offroading. Hope to see everyone soon.

    I would be up for it, but someone else would have to plan it and host. I don't have the available time right now to plan one out. I would be open to going though. Just can't do anything on the weekend of the 21st, as I will hopefully be at the Citrus meet!

    The beach has multiple bbq pits that are free for use. Could do some wheeling, then head to the beach for some sun and fun.

    The group I am with, 9-Line Off-Roading, go out to The Swamp. It's a really nice area for all levels. Worth the drive.
