    Hey y'all!

    I'm excited to announce my new joint project with @Toyboata is ready for launch; All Terrain Addicts! We hope to provide park and product reviews, tips and tricks, and build guides to help the off road community expand and grow. We would love some feedback and support in our preliminary testing phase!

    Haha thanks man! We're going to be as unbias as possible. It's not Toyota exclusive at all, but I figured I'd spread the word to the Taco Fam first

    We have two more completed and ready to go that will be launched soon. One will be on a heavily debated topic... tires :cool:

    We have an article coming on a heated topic coming this Sunday... tires. Stay tuned for our take on all the basic info you need in making your next tire purchase!

    Anything y'all want to hear us ramble on about? We have more articles coming and are trying to hold back a flood, but would love some feedback!

    I know there are a lot of newer TW members like myself who could always use off-road basics, lift 101 info and terminology, armor intro, winch/recovery basics, the usual. I'm glad you're tackling tires soon because when I search here, most of the 101 or basic stuff is old, like '09 or so. Comprehensive tire info is hard to find. One-offs or small comparisons can be found, but a large list of pros and cons are hard to come by. I've tried to read all I can here and have found a lot of good info but it's here and there. Even some of the stickies are years old and tires are ever-changing.

    I didn't even think of a terminology article, I like that idea. I can add that to a segment I already have written. That article just happens to have basic winch info already in it! :thumbsup:

    Armor is something we're saving until we have more one to one talks with a variety of vendors. If we do monetize our site, it will most likely be to the tune of vendors distributing reviewed products through our site, something we have yet to plan out being in a testing phase still.

    We plan on doing a whole series for suspension/lifts, and even entire build guides (build your expo Tacoma, make your old TJ into a rock legend, ect). There are so just many variables. As to not be Toyota exclusive, along with our IFS traditional strut with leaf rear suspensions, there's also front torsion bars and solid fronts. Solid fronts can encompass coils with a shock, leaf springs, and even custom coilovers (something I know very little about simply because I've never had hands on experience with anything that nice... Haha). In the rear there's leafs, coil buckets with shocks, and 3/4 link setups to go along with that. We probably won't discuss linked front setups. We have segments written, we are just trying to puzzle it all together. I have a Jeep friend I plan on collaborating heavy with when we both get back to school next month, which will help the articles stay as diverse as possible with minimal to no speculation.

    And yeah, we got tired of the same tire pages as well. Coupled with how many damn posts you see about it. We have a very basic guide for the beginning, and will go more in depth later on as we gather more information.

    a good topic... Offroading for prerunners LOL. I'm a sad owner of one who got it before I realized I like the dirt. Now I still go out and tackle some mild fire roads but the question is asked all the time... How can a 2wd enjoy some mild offroading.
