Lafayette Yotas

Back at you Sean digging your rig as well thank you. Glad to hear you're a member of the LLK group they're a good group to hang and wheel with. I understand about the area at least you have a group nearby. Have you talked to Doug Hurst with the Louisiana Overland Group? He's out of Baton Rouge and I'll be doing some rides with them this year. My Taco is coming along nicely I bought it to bail my nephew out of bind last October and have been building it up ever since. I haven't made a single trip in yet but the first one of many is coming up our group is headed to Ouray at the end of the month and really looking forward to it. Have some wiring and a skid plate to build and I think I'm done for a while. At least until I build a hidden winch mount for the trip in October to TN/NC for the Overland Expo East.

More of what it looks like right now.

 

Very nice man. I'll have I get I touch with Doug. I work in Baton Rouge but live in Mandeville. I tend to stay away from off-road parks and stick to over landing. I took a job up in Oklahoma in 2014 and started a Toyota club up there. We would take 2 to 3 trips to the Ozarks a year and have a blast. We ran the High water trail twice then took random trails the rest of the time. I moved down here in March so I've been talking with the guys up in OK to start planning a November Ozark trip for this year.

 

Just moved to Lafayette. Looking forward to getting involved and participating in some events. Hope to see y'all around.

 

Doug and I need to touch base with you we were talking about making a High Water trail/Ozark run next spring. We have the Fall trip planned for the Overland East Expo in October.

 

Look forward to meeting you

 

Absolutely, we had a solid group of guys in Oklahoma and Arkansas that made the trip with us. @rutacoma @Kneeboarder1025 @frizbal @MatthewMay1

X2. I had a great time

 

Great trip to Ouray last week that area is awesome

 

Yea I work with him.

 

See yall around town!

 

Don't know that I've seen you but will keep my eye out for ya. I work on the corner of South College and Johnston but live in Youngsville. Nice rig, how you like your softtop?

 

I like it alot. I just throw my hunting gear in there when I'm going deer hunting and don't have to worry about my gear getting wet. Also works great for luggage on road trips and camping . I put some Led's light strips under the bed rails with a switch in the bed and it lights it up like it's day. Perfect for finding stuff at 4am. It's durable too.

 

Nice! a TSS? A lot of them around here. Welcome!
