Hold My Pipe....

Be ready. I think we're gonna go back after LBL some time, but before the event in September.

These are within 200 miles of my zip, so they could be a good drive from your place. Not many to pick from. Might want to reconsider your engine/transmission desires, and go less unicorn-y

 

I know. Isin't it epic. It's 1000% me.

 

I honestly haven't really been tempted to put them on the green truck. It's much more exciting to think about having my nice green truck to DD and then have my beater Tacoma to wheel.

It's been a funding topic really on the waiting/patience. It's all cash and expendable cash is harder to come by.

I don't have a truck yet. But. The funds to seriously acquire something in the next 3 weeks is now there.

 

I can/could swing a lot more day/Saturday trips, but we'd have to stay up around the more north part of KY. My wifey doesn't give a shit, especially if I offer to take a kid with me.

 

Soon to be a park re-opening that's just about an hour south of Louisville. Blue Holler is relatively small, but adequate for a single day trip. It opens next weekend after a year and a half closure due to liability insurance cost. I've been promised it will exceed previous level of trail quality. We'll see. There will no doubt be a few trips there this summer for many of the Kentucky group!

 

I've never been to RRG either, so that's always an option as well.

 

Whats wrong with staying the night occasionally?

 

Nothing, I just prefer to not camp with kids...yet. It adds a new layer of stuff to worry about, from what to bring to keeping them from being a pest at camp. Day stuff, I will bring my daughter again 100%, overnight stuff, not quite yet.

 

This build thread may not be without a truck for much longer.



This weekend.

 

Alright.

If everything goes according to plan.....

This should be joining my green baby either Friday Night or Saturday morning.

 

Nice! What are the details? Does it have a major malfunction, or did you decide to pony up and get one without issues?

 

2007. 100K. Should be in 100% driving condition. Owner looking to upgrade to a full size.

Rebuilt title. Looks like it hit a deer on the driver front. Headlight area/trim/part of fender goofy but other than that, looks aight.

It's a stick.

 

My man.

 

Never owned a stick

I will finally get the hang of one. I can get from a to b. Not the prettiest, but I know how.

Or I'll put a fucking auto in it.

 

Yes

No

You'll be fine. It's like riding a bike. Certainly more difficult when it gets technical, but that's the fun part. Learn the hand brake take-off trick, and what the clutch-start cancel button does for the really sticks spots where rolling back isn't an option.

 

I can drive them. It's just your typical "beginner' type shit. Never had one to get used to. This is will be Taco #3, so that comfort level is there already. I just need to find a big parking lot and have at it.

I've never really been "taught" either. What I do know, I've figured out by myself. I may enlist the services of someone who does and can refine what I do know.

 

Looks like a good lil wheelin rig! ​

 

Such Single Cab action!!!!!!!!!!!
