    It comes with the territory, literally. Same with my hometown, Clayton GA and most economies in that region.

    Anyone in Boone/Blowing Rock willing to help pull me out? I had to move my truck over to allow the plow guy to clear out my driveway and I parked it in the mulch and now I’m stuck as Chuck.

    Fair point! It's been gorgeous. I drove Old NC 105 yesterday and it was damn near perfect out there.

    I don't know if there's any meetups planned but I'm new to Asheville and would like to meet some folks around here.

    I may drive Old NC 105 on Easter Sunday. Pretty sure I'll be driving back to Georgia solo that day and this has been on my list.

    It's a good drive for sure. Nothing technical, just a couple rough patches and a couple mudholes. Definitely stop at Wiseman's View and Linville Falls.

    What’s up y’all?! I live in the foothills, about an hour from both Boone and Asheville. Finally joined the club today after dreaming about owning a Taco since I first saw Top Gear try to destroy a Hilux, probably 15 years ago. Been lurking these forums for a year now, and I finally get to chime in.

    2020 Quicksand DC 4WD SR5, with only 20k miles on it — and I couldn’t be more chuffed. ADC8463B-6E62-4137-8B2C-5A2897F2B400.jpg
