Iowa Tacomas (Idiots.Out.Wandering.Around)

waiting for your state DOT to repair I-29 outside of council bluffs

DAMN that is a rough road
almost went airborne driving over at 60mph

 

Thats the whole state in the spring

 

i've driven on this stretch of road for long long time decades! it's never been this bad
it has a different type of pavement on I-29 that I-80 does not have
made out of rubber chunks maybe? i dunno
kinda looks like corkboard

 

Hello stranded here in Iowa also

 

sometimes i feel i drive myself in circles in and out of Iowa on I-29 waiting it to open up to North South but no clue when they can reopen ... sux just like it did in 'o11 flood

 

Yea all this flooding over the years has been terrible. I've lost jobs & priceless family heirlooms. My current job is right along the river & been lucky so far the last 2 years! Anyone remember this song?

From Burlington Iowa, not too far away from the QC. Just bought my Tacoma on Good Friday up in Cedar Falls! Loving every minute of it.

 

I just happened to park next to another local 1st gen at Menard's in Mason City.

 

i hear that I-29 is now open from Missouri border to Sioux City
I will doublecheck
only one service station open though south to Missouri, so make sure you are completely filled up, I don't wanna get a HELP alert on here to bring you fuel lol

....
i checked google maps and I-29 looks to be still closed near me from Crescent to I-680/Missouri Valley

that I-29 outside of Council Bluffs is still rough as a mofo
I don't think its been re-paved in multiple decades just patched over with many bumps
it has that special brownish type of pavement

 

which one is yours?

 

The left one.

 

hope the other guy gets that spot by the front bumper fixed before it gets worse!

 

toyoTech mechanic recomended this place in Tabor south of Glenwood

anybody have any interior work done from this shop?

 

Looks legit and somewhat local. I need some visors recovered. I might ask for a quote and see what they come back with.

 

Trans Wisconsin trail next weekend for anyone interested

Howdy fellas, name is Roger. Just moved to Sioux City from San Antonio, TX to be an Army Recruiter here. How's the Off roading/Tacoma scene around here?

Also here is a picture of me taking my rig going down an obstacle called Jody's Revenge at Hidden Falls Adventure Park in Marble Falls, TX

 

is the Iowa DOT roads dept fairly easy to communicate with?

i now find it odd that one office is nearly right down the road where the serious problem is at

 

Welcome to IA. I'm not sure about the west side of the state but the Nebraska or Black Hills guys might know. There's not a lot of good public accessable Off Road areas across IA. There are some good areas on private land but you typically have to know somebody.

 

Thanks for the welcome, plan on taking a trip to the Black Hills to camp once I find a place to live and get settled in Sioux City. Want to visit Yellowstone as well as I am just slightly closer than I was before.

 

how did this product work out for you?
