    @Mickeydog hey I’m up in Montague. Didn’t think there were any other taco guys on my side of the state. You ever take your taco up to silver lake? I go every couple weeks or so in the summer as time allows with a couple buddies that are running an FJ and a t4r. You’re welcome to join us sometime if you’d like. :)

    Thanks for the offer, but I did the Silver Lake thing back in the early 70's. Along with all the mud you could find.
    Love my Taco, but it's used mainly to get me anyplace I need to go for hunting, fishing, and just exploring the back country.
    Have fun and stay safe in the dunes.

    I'll meet you out there with my rail this year and you show me you can run test hill in your Taco. I'm aware of the air down.

    I'm up there a bunch of times during the summer and always like to meet new people.

    Every vehicle has a different trick. Of course air down but then try 4 hi 1st gear. Roll through the whoops at the bottom and when you hit the last whoop hold it wide open until you get to the top. If that doesn't work try 4lo with the same technique probably 3rd gear.

    Air down is a pre-req in sand, mud, rocks its basically offroad 101. I fully understand the benefits after 20+ years of wheeling. I personally am too OCD to take a DD in the dunes. A toy like a rail or a built truck made for the sand. Absolutely. My 16 was under factory warranty and I trade my Taco's every two years hence using as a rescue vehicle but normally I would never take my truck into the dunes. I'm saving for a used YFZ450 for a rescue vehicle for next season. Running parts and what not. We should meet for a dune run sometime. That sounds fun.
