    Hi all, it's been a while since last checking into this thread.

    Anyone game to #TWexpress and help move some 1st gen rock sliders from approximately Knoxville area (or points south if possible) to approximately D.C. area (or points north if possible)??

    Working out a deal to buy the sliders from @rybern:
    "Weight is 105 lbs for both. Approximate dimension of package would be 6" x 16" x 82". I'm able to stack these together and will place cardboard between them to minimize rubbing. I will also wrap them in cardboard."

    Timing is flexible on my end--no rush, but preferable line something up by end of July.

    Any takers?
    @Newlife ?
    @fatfurious2 ?

    I honestly don’t know on this one. With me being a short bed with swing out and shell I don’t want to drive with my back glass flapping around that far. Put me down as backup in case all else fails.

    Totally understandable. Let me know if you change your mind and feel like getting out of the house :) Until then...thanks for doing that last time--we appreciate it.

    I "owe" you a beer from last time!



    Sounds good. Will let you know. Appreciate you considering the drive (again). If it DOES end up working out, I could throw some gas money or something your way for this one.

    That we were going to have them made to have each one of the members of the team pick one up? It is a pretty exclusive club you know. Have you been smoking the funny stuff again Rob? Lol

    Ok, first I'll run it by @tcBob to get his blessing then if it's ok I'll work with my Boy Jerry @loosnut . I'm sure he knows someone and if not there's my peeps on the moral patch thread. I have a couple in mind. We could pick one that already has a similar design to modify to hopefully save some money. The idea is to keep the cost low to make them easily attainable, but desirable.

    Let's get creative though. A Tacoma loaded to the gills with parts, boxes, and whatever. Maybe we could get permission to have it say, Northeast Tacomaworld Express. Then we can reach out to other regions to share the design and only have to change the region name.

    We'll talk versions later :fistbump:
