*OFFICIAL* Arizona Trail Day Photograph Thread

I was behind the group until the accident. While waiting for a way to pass, I found a nice knife on the side of the road in the dirt. Anyone missing it, let me know. I will not be checking this forum since I have a 4-runner. So I don't know how you can reach me. How about I check back in a couple of days.... if no reply, I now have a really nice knife!

 

How big our group was had nothing to do with the accident! It was an honest mistake...


Hope ya'll had fun...Gear post pics of your new Tacoma ASAP



More special thanks to Andy for putting this day together and to Harrelsen for getting the shirts made

 

Wanted to say again THX again everyone and Andrew for making this event happen!!!

Was my first AZ trail run and I'm glad I was able to meet a great bunch of people not just by alias but my real name and in person as well.

To Sir Gearbox and Art. I am truly glad that you are safe and ok. Like everyone has been saying the Tacoma may be replaceable but you two are not. - Jeff(sHiBby)

 

what time did you end up making it home?

 

IDK i couldn't tell actually while i was driving home my contacts were super de duper dry. I ended up following someone home though. which made it easier I think it was danzer or someone in a red taco. but if i had to guesstimate i would say 8:30? or 7:30 idk

 

i stoped at in n out in prescot and made it back by 830

 

we stopped at panda and i got to my gf's house in chandler at like 8:00 i think

 

Glad you guys are OK, that top caved in looks like it could have been much worse for you guys. Good luck with the insurance.

 

looks like it was a nice trip.. and glad to hear your ok gear..

 

It was definitely a good time, thanks for putting it together Taylor, Andrew and everyone else who helped organize it.

Glad to hear that your ok gearbox. Hopefully your insurance company doesn't give you the run around. I totaled my G35 last march but they didn't stick it to me too bad.

 

Anyone for a Late October/ early November trail run????

To soon?

 

Good to hear you're okay. Tough trucks man.

 

Look into the car show in Tucson. November 6th. That should be the meet for November.

It was definitely a fun meet, despite Gearbox's unfortunate roll over everything went pretty well for a first time massive event I must say. Thanks to everyone for coming out. I was really impressed by how nice everyone was and how easy everything went... a seriously great group of people all around. I have a bunch of pictures I'll have to sort through hopefully tomorrow but it won't be tonight

The trail was very dusty, visibility was low, and the soft edge unfortunately all came together and gave Gearbox a perfect storm... but fortunately there were no serious injuries and everyone got home safe... that's the #1 important thing of course. I hope the best for you and your uncle, and if you need anything feel free to hit me up any time.

Also to address a comment earlier... it wouldn't have mattered if there were 3 or 100 vehicles out there... the conditions wouldn't have been any different. Honestly with a group of near 50 vehicles it went overall (minus the roll) way better than I anticipated for sure.

I'm also really impressed everyone showed up... If I were to place a bet I would have said 25 would actually have gone at most... thanks for proving me way way wrong!

 

^^^Agreed.

For everyone that went yesterday you should probably check or replace your air filter. I cleaned mine out this morning and it was really dirty.

 

Well thats good news. I am still waiting to see how they are going to get it out of there

 

+ a whole bunch on the air filter replacement or cleaning.
Kinda looking forward to seeing how my TRD with the outer sock worked out.
I did the prerun as well the day before and it was very dusty as well.
Pics will happen.

 

Two words...SHHHHH IIIIIITTTTTT.... I missed a good one!

Someone needs to submit an article and photos to this magazine.

I think another gathering with a purpose (trash pick up, trail fix, ect.) would be awesome and really bring some positive light to offroading in this state.

I will make the next one...

Well done for those who made it happen..well done indeed.

 

Here's a few more whenever I had time to shoot. So many SLRs there I didn't even bother trying to take any after a certain point.

 

Good idea. I sent a PM with a link to this thread to someone that works there.
