    Not much public land around here... If it's not a city or town it's farmland... Maybe someone a little more local to CR can offer some input. I would suggest checking out the Toys for Tots event that will be at MIOBI.

    If this gives you any indication of our public land...I’m heading to southern Missouri with a buddy last week in October to run the forest fire service roads and camp because other than privately owned land I know of 0 besides level B roads and to most of the off roading community that’s frowned upon

    we used to go here in high school. Looks like they have turned it into an OHV park. No trucks allowed. Only atv's, side by sides, and dirt bikes.

    Hi guys,
    Do any of you run winter tires? I have on all of my other cars and was wondering if I should get a set for the tacoma. Also, my lights on the dash (RPM, Speedometer, gas and temp gauges) stay on regardless if I turn on my headlights, is this normal?
    Thanks!

    Tornado Alley Cruisers will be at Tuttle Creek ORV just north of Manhattan, KS this weekend. Camping Fri and Sat nights in the west loop of Fancy Creek Campground 4 miles north of the ORV staging area.

    Do you have 4wd? If so I would definitely say no.

    I've never purchased winter tires for any vehicle.

    I don't conciser winter tires a necessity. They can be nice but for the few times per year they would help me, not worth the cost. If I lived further North I might have a different opinion.

    Toys 4 Tots this weekend at MIOBI...

    Bring a $20 new toy and get in for the weekend. I believe camping is additional. Check out their club facebook page for more info. I plan to be there with my 3rd gen 4Runner.

    Good weekend to get out. No rain and the trails were pretty dry. Showed a few Jeeps around.

    A few pictures from Sunday
