First Off Road Trip - Peter's Mill Run in VA

So this is my second taco, but first real off road trip. I used to have an 06 TRD Sport Access Cab 6speed, but last November someone decided to run a redlight and re-arranged my front end. After this, I switched over to a 2013 DCLB. Now I thought I loved my 06, but this 2013 is just awesome.

I was invited out to Peter's Mill Run in Virginia, and decided to give it a try. My Tacoma has no suspension work done, but I did upgrade from the 16in steelies to 17inch FJ Alloys, and LTX AT/2's. I was initially worried about how it would handle, but after driving the 18 mile trail, concluded that these machines are just !

Here are a few shots from the day that I wanted to share with the community.

Happy 4th of July Eve everyone!

 

Nice, I don't have the balls to take my 12' in the woods yet but I do have a Land Cruiser for those type of things.

Glad to hear it handled itself in stock form. Pics look good.

 

Looks fun. Is that in the GWNF? How far from DC/Baltimore?

 

Yes it is. I came down from Carroll County, and took just over 2 hours. It was a beautiful drive though, so time passed fairly quickly.

 

Nice rig! Looks like you had a good time out there

 

I was there not to long ago! Great wheeling even for stockers, We are from Baltimore, let me know next time you go we would meet up with you guys!

 

Nice looking truck!

 

Thanks man she did alright!

 

Can do. I have friends with (not sure I can say it here, but...) Jeeps that are itchin' to give this trail a go.

 

Great pictures!

 

Thanks dude, yes we did! With snow season upon us, trying to get down there again to make it a little more difficult. My jeep friends are still asking about scheduling another trip.

 

I'm trying to find a trail to take my new Taco on. I'm new to off roading and a 1st time Taco owner. Have the 2023 trd off road 4x4 with lift kit. 2inch in the front/ 1inch in the back??. What do you think about this being my 1st trail?
