GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

I may have to stop in my local ACE hardware and see if there is a similar mistake. I've been wanting to get a smaller BT speaker to take with us to the pool

 

I will go with you.

 

So, spent 3 1/2 hours each way heading to Pisgah over the weekend. Riding mostly with the windows down if there was more hum than my previous Nitto Ridge Grapplers it was minimal. I didn't get any offroading.

I wonder if this awning is any good for the price.

 

ive got two of them sitting in the garage. I got a chance to see one in person, on Brad’s truck last week and it looks solid. Supposedly it’s a rebranded ARB awning but don’t quote me on that…

Price was too good not to take advantage of, although I’m not even sure I’ll use them yet

 

Yeah, I don't have a rack and therefore no way to mount it, but that price seems really good for one of those.

 

$100 seems pretty reasonable. What’s a similar sized ARB/CVT/23zero/etc. cost?

 

I know 2 people with them. They’re definitely worth the price for what you get.

 

I came home looking for a mounted awning after getting a good amount of rain camping over the weekend. I just ordered a Slumberjack Roadhouse Tarp from Amazon instead. It doesn't have the cool factor of mounted and I'll have to find a place to store it within my already overloaded bed but it is hard for me to pass up the versatility of this. Being able to configure in numerous ways attached to my truck or freestanding seems like a game changer. I also picked up another pair of adjustable poles since the fixed length poles were one of the gripes. I should have it by Friday.

Also, got Fedex confirmation today my Victory 4x4 Strike bumper has arrived. Can't wait to get it mounted.

 

My boy kevin says it's good for the price man I would recommend it, I would have bought it already but dont have a place to mount on my truck lol

 

Sell me mineeeeee lmao

 

Man I like the sound of that I just might be headed that direction so I'm in between the cooper st maxx and those how was pisgah I haven't been up there in awhile

 

You'll have something fabbed up by end of month

 

Still early but at this point I wouldn't hesitate recommending them for a MT. I haven't had a chance to take them offroad but they have a pretty aggressive tread pattern that I can only imagine leads up to the hype.

As for Pisgah, I love what I've seen of it. We go back almost every year but I'm sad to say we spend very little time outside of Davidson River Campground. I worked Friday from The Hub, that place is pretty nice. My son and I did a couple miles bike riding on Art Loeb Trail but that is a very tame trail compared to what I hear is available in that area. This trip is our family time trip. We tube on the river, jump off the rock, bicycle around the loops and most importantly hit up Dolly's at least once. I left the noodle bucket at home . I would love to get back out there and spend more time exploring the area. I tried to get the family out for a short hike but they shot me down. I can't complain because we just did Raven Cliff Falls ( our favorite hike in Ga ) a few weeks ago and that's a good 5 miles round trip.

 

are those awnings waterproof or is it more just sun shade. I was looking for something that I could set my hammock stand under and just sleep like that.

 

Man I love hiking I spent 5 weeks on the AT and love raven cliffs area gorgeous place. You need to checkout cowrock mountain on the AT awesome spot to view downtown Helen. Next time you go to pisgah let me know I would definitely love to join and wheel with you that would be a jam up time! And I can say I have heard alot of great things on those MTs my buddy has them on his Colorado and only has great things to say about them.

 

Panther Creek is another good one. We tend to enjoy trails with lots of water. Especially if our dog is with us ( which is generally the case ). Hiking at Wildcat Creek is another "go to" for us since it's only 40 minutes away. We are a handful of miles from Sawnee Mountain and the view of Indian Seats is decent if we want to get out but not take half the day.

 

Trueeeeee haha...
I've been telling my wife we should get a awning something like the napa one would be nice too..
Were planning on another trip for my birthday might go out to the cohutta or maybe NC? any recommendations?

 

I mean it’s a sheet that blocks the sun! What could go wrong!

 

I believe they’re water resistant. Even if it’s not the best you could always spray it with the waterproofing spray from Walmart
