Nice Lexus SUV for sale.

 

On the side of the road in Clovis.

 

Oof

 

Anyone had to have their Tacoma’s timing cover repaired?

 

it should be covered under powertrain warranty if you still have it.

 

Sup guys. Back into Tacoma. Bounce between 559 and 805. Currently looking for a prinsu or Sherpa rack for a dclb. Cheers

 

So moving from the foothills to the valley has kind of waylaid my usual winter activities… which with the season we’ve had hasn’t been an issue so far!

Anyway if I wanted to seek out some snow for the kids to mess around in is there a good spot up around Shaver? Or anywhere near where I live in the Woodward park area of Fresno?

 

Shaver Lake, but you have to take snow chains as they might stop you and not let you through out there

I can't speak for Dinky Creek if it's open or not but anytime I'd go, the snow was nice and thick and the sequoias are beautiful to check out

 

Awesome. Thanks.
I carry chains in the winter having been stuck way too many times to know better… but have never been actually stopped and checked. Is that a thing around here? I usually store them where they’re annoying to get too. Like behind everything up against my cab under a shell. Not bad to move if I need too.

 

I also carry a shovel which having been buried in the snow without one once… invaluable!

 

I was never stopped, but social media does post often that they have a spot where they "check" so it's good to have

 

I snowboard enough at China Peak to say, CHP/CalTran do ask/check at the top of 4lane if snow condition exist.

Heck, they even check when I drive my truck there to make sure I carried chain for the 40" tires.

 

Keep in mind, you'll need a permit (buy online or from stores in Shaver) to park & play at one of the 4 snow park there. It's 10x cheaper for the permit than a ticket.
