4th Annual Socaltacomas/TW SUPERSTITION Trip Jan 18-19 2014

It's nice but not a must for me. Unfortunately my tow vehicle blew a motor and has yet to be replaced. So I can tow a small trailer with the offroad toy or use rv to trailer the toy and have room for everything else.

 

its going to be busy out there that weekend, 3 other clubs/groups will be out there with you guys. Mainly Jeeps.

 

We've done it the same weekend as them 2 out of the last 3 meets and we barely saw them. They were back in the mountain going slow or something.

 

good. that will keep the eyes off of just us so to speak.

 

Count me in Manny, bringing my lady as well.

Ya, I'm a little bitch when it comes to camping, hence why I bought the portable toilet. Shower would be nice too but as long as I can poo somewhere I'm happy lol. Baby wipes work wonders for a make shift "shower" If it was anything longer than a weekend then I would invest in a portable heated shower.

Ya, based on some talks with Gary and a few others wife and I will be investing in a Toy Hauler shortly. I was thinking about a travel trailer but then we also want a RZR or some sort of side by side and one of those will NOT fit in my bed haha. So toy hauler it is.

 

Ill take an 05 rhino. 4 seater, stock. All day long @6 k$

 

Ya they do get pricey tried to go the quad route but she wasn't having it lol. I've seen a few that are not to expensive won't be buying new that's for sure.

 

The rzrs are 4wd and automatic can putt around and go decent speed. That's the good. Mini rails are cheaper and more fun if you don't need 4wd, plus faster. A gutted samurai is a good 4wd rhino but you aren't going fast. Pro and cons to all.
Alex-go ahead and hook on to big Bertha and see what that taco will pull. Lol

 

If my kids where older I might have went with a rail.

 

Just say when, I'll run up to Alpine and back maybe further up the grade ha

 

Gabe-My flatbed weighs 3k empty. Just tell me what you want it to weigh. I have quads and bikes plus whatever can easily get it to 5k.

Alex-it has wood on it right now for super, all on the front. It would kill your springs, exploder was on the bumps.

 

Noted lol, lets shoot for after the super trip haha. I might want you to tag along also, never towed anything that big and could use your expertise, if you don't mind of course.

Alex

 

I've pulled it with the exploder with around 1500 on it. I would consider a brake controller before you hook on.

 

Thanks buddy...

 

Chances are you wont find a toy hauler/toy combo that you can safely tow with the Taco. The toy haulers are much heavier than the travel trailers because they can haul weight so the frame and suspension is much more robust. They often have fuel cells etc as well.
A small travel trailer is at least 2500lbs dry. A small toy box is probably another 1000-1500lbs. Add water, fuel and the toy itself plus all your gear and you are really getting up there fast.
They say the max tow capacity is 6500lbs but I personally wouldn't get close to that. I tow mine a lot and up a lot of grades etc and with all my gear its probably just under 4K and I definitely know its back there. I have a brake controller so that helps. Once I upgrade to a taller trailer rather than the pop up I will also need anti sway devices.

 

so i know we have talked about this but is there a "final" location of where we are meeting? like coordinates
