Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

I actually called him yesterday (thought I passed him on WM cannon) he said he's got a wedding to attend

​

 

Towed Sohail and Chad last year

 

​

 

Dang what about Brandon(TX4coma)?

 

Keep in mind he rented TRD off-road 4x4 his 05 is a 2wd limited sport model which is probably why his was getting better gas mileage

 

Havnt talked with him yet, that's a good idea.

 

That made my day.

 

I had about 50 extra pounds on me too

 

You’ve lost that much congrats man

 

Appreciate ya. I need to get back on my regular exercising now that the diet is under control.

 

Hard to say since I don't have a stock vs stock comparison. Our 07 was stick for a long time. V6 SR5. Rode great, comfy (cloth soft seats), gas mileage around 17-18 iirc. That was average over a long time. Real rough guess.

The 07 got a Daystar lift and Toyo AT IIs. Ride was still really great, loved those tires. Gas mileage down a couple points. Probably 15 -16 per tank.

The 16 TPE, bought it spacer lifted on the nittos. Ride was good. Probably on par with the lifted 07. Hard to say if one was better than the other really. Tires were a bit stiffer on the 16. Gas mileage was always around 15 per tank.

With the 16 having stock wheels/tires again, the ride is nice but still need to pull the blocks out .

End result... Really close on both with the nudge in tech going to the 16. and looks...

 

I know last year me and him and his wife went to Las Vegas and we drove it there and he was averaging about 380 a tank

 

That's pretty good. I can't really remember what we got on highway trips. Been a long time, but it was not bad at all. The 16, lifted on meats got us still around 15 our last trip, but I travel fast. could've been a little better if I went 65-70... but no fun in that

If only the V8 was an option still...

 

When I first bought my taco and it was completely stock form I got 387 on a tank of gas but that was from completely full to completely empty

 

Now I'm lucky to get 275 on a full tank of gas

 

It is...

the one on the right...

 

Ha! I remember that - our one and only trip to Concordia.

What a clusterfuck C&C that was!

 

Tempting... We have discussed it a couple times. Doesn't alleviate our big need for a lowered dog hauler though... Bed cap would help but the height is too much... someday

 

That it was, but I gotta say, I like the smaller lots, like that place and the Oasis. COTA is just too spread out.

 

That place/event was
