Holloman AFB Tacomas??? who all is here??

I would be up for saturday or sunday. Just let me know cause I have to take the boss to cruces so she can go shopping. Old navy is having a sale and she wants to buy some more school clothes for the boy. I would like to ease into things, since I don't know a lot of people around here. Big crowds make me nervous, and stupid people piss me off. The last bunch I went out with had no common sense and several trucks got damaged for no reason whatsoever. Comes from having a heavy foot and a narrow arroyo to get through. Did I mention the crap stock tires as well? I am running firestones at, but have a set of mud terrains as well.
Hit me up. Darth

 

Hey just letting everyone know we are putting a trail run together this saturday, we are going to coyote canyon in tulerosa. We are going to meet up at 0900 Saturday at the Texaco truck stop next to Lowes home improvement. If your going to go let me know so I can get a count of people and I know how many trucks to wait for... The trails have bypasses so if you don't want to do something just go around.

 

i saw u drivin the other day. truck looks sick man, nice work

 

Thanks bro

 

So who all is still following this thread? I just found it!

 

Im still stationed at holloman. Im in the desert right now though

 

I'm planing a meet for next sunday the 22nd if anybody wants to go.

 

Hey man, whats up? Its Matt

I might be able to make it Sunday, I requested Monday off. Once I find out I will let you know. Snow run or rocks? There is a place called Rattlesnake canyon that I started doing with the Jeep guys (had to return to town early), have you heard of it?

 

Cool, when you get back let us know. We usually do a little wheeling trip at least once a month.

 

hey matt, ive seen your truck on base quite a few times and i have to say that its beautiful lol.

i had the 2010 white double cab but i sold it for my red xrunner a few months ago...

heres a pic if you dont remember lol

 

Oh yeah. You traded that in at desert sun. It was a prerunner with a lift right?

 

Thank you. I remember seeing the white truck a couple of times, I have also seen the 1st gen thats parked beside it in the photo quite a bit, I think there is another one that has an ARB bumper on base as well.

 

Yea it has bilstien 5100s. Ive got an almost brand new avid light bar that is professionally line-x'd that i took off it if anybody is interested. It has all 4 light tabs and is in perfect condition

 

Colin,

You got a plan on where we are going? Meet up time/location? Going to get the word out to the folks over at Military Jeepers.

 

I was thinking maybe we start off at coyote canyon then maybe some snow if there is some left. IDK. I have been asking people what they want to do.. I open. what do you think?

 

Have you been up rattlesnake yet? It is supposed to led to Cloudcroft, but I didnt finish it. Also have not done Mill Ridge in forever. But Im cool with whatever, Im itching to hit some rocks, Coyote would be cool to, I have yet to explore most of it anyway.

 

I've heard about rattlesnake but I've never gone. I just don't know how advanced it would be and I don't know how many people are coming either. I'm thinking more coyote Canyon then the snow because I don't think I'll be enough snow plus I'd like to make all the way to the waterfall on Coyote Canyon.

Where is rAttlesnake?

 

How do you guys like Holloman? I would like to get stationed southwest us when i come back stateside. Is there any good wheeling around?

 

Did a little trail scouting for the upcoming meet this weekend, made it all the way to my fav. waterfall place. So it looks like it should be a fun trip this sunday.

 

Sounds good to me man, I need to make it to that waterfall anyway. Hopefully I have Monday off so I can go. I'll prob skip going to the snow, I still have not got all the mud off from the last trip (no I'm not scared of sliding into a ravine, HONEST!! lol)

I like the area, its a smaller town but you have two largish cities within 50-90 min drive if you need something. The base does have its negatives (as with any base). There is quite a bit off wheeling spots around here, we have the whole Lincoln National Forest right in our back yard (its about 15-20 min from base, 10-15 from the town) then you have other places in Southern New Mexico, Colorado and Utah are not far away (its 10 hrs to get to Moab, 8.5 hrs to Colorado Springs). I have not been that far North yet, but plan on it before I leave.
