    So as long as visible from 500 ft and red then rear lamp tint is still legal.

    Anyone Chucktown SC residents know of anywhere with 4x4 beach access? Not so much tearing up and acting stupid, just where I can drive out and park. The girlfriend and I are going to be there for the weekend. Thanks!

    Honestly Jim, I don't think a single beach in our state allows vehicles on it.

    Ah you're around. Not me but you might have seen me around, I work off of aviation. I see several nice trucks in the area but people don't wave much. I don't think they're members.

    I work over in the RTP off of Miami and Old Chapel Hill/Nelson Hwy. I see Taco's all the time, but never seem to see any of you guys. I've seen a few nice modded trucks around too recently.

    I used to work at IBM. Didn't see too many while I was over there.

    We need to get together for dinner. I can wrangle a couple of the guys that live near me.

    Yeah, it seems like just within the past 6 months or so, I have started to see more and more Taco's. I saw a sweet T4R Trail edition too last week.

    Yeah, a dinner eat and greet would be cool. The early part of this month is busy, but I'll try to make it out to one of these. Been a while since I've been to any meets and greets and eats.

    Yea 6 months is about right. I was just driving through apex and saw a cute chick driving a lifted Tacoma.
    Keep tabs in here and the Raleigh thread post up when you're available.

    Also note Hurricane Creek trail ride/camp March 22nd.

    Nope. I'm usually only over in the RTP during the week. Weekends I'm around I-85 area in Durham and 15/501 running errands, etc.

    I've seen so many Silver Streaks recently, it's crazy.

    It's cool that there's a couple of us all working not more than 10 mins from each other.
