okay dokay! new poll is up let me know if there is somewhere i should add i think desert too hot but added anyways.

 

Desert is always fun, but not a big fan of dealing with triple digits

Just my 2 cents

 

.....thread name changed....

 

OMG I slept right through game of thrones last night.

 

Pismo is only 40 min from me. I vote that

 

Me too lol

Right on! glad ya made it Matt ur 4runner is bad ass sorry if you caught someone saying something you did not like... im not down for that shit sorry it happened i did not hear it

 

Haha no prob. I got myself in a shitty situation. Still learning the ropes. That was by far the most technical stuff I've done in the 4Runner. I'm all overland build (Thank god I didn't have my tent up top lol).

This thing is way fun. Can't wait to get some more armor coming up and take it out more. Clearly I need a gas tank skid now.

Thanks for inviting me out guys! I needed the break. This summer is gonna be uber shitty haha.

 

Definitely a no go for the desert here lol, wayyyyy too hot. Once fall/winter comes around though I'd love to do a multi-day camping/wheeling trip around the old mines out in Death Valley.

I vote for Pismo next, I was just up there yesterday coming back from the family gathering. I've never been wheeling up there and the pics always look like a lot of fun, would be something a little different (sand dunes)

 

Lol Next time I'll be sure to go 5 mph max...

 

I'm definitely a slow poke on the trails lol I'm too afraid of breaking something especially on stock suspension

 

Definatly would be interested in a Death Valley trip, Mengel pass, etc when the weather permits

Also have been dying to run the mojave trail after my semi rescent failed attempt

 

At least you have the excuse of stock suspension. On fire roads and sand I fucking haul ass, that is what my suspension is for. On rocky stuff I keep it slow unless I've done the trail before. Then I'll pick up the pace. Just worry about a sudden rocky patch haha.

 

I'm running the Mojave trail next year sometime. The temps are averaging 100 right now. Not down for a camping trip in that heat.

 

Needs a workout

 

Agreed, not down for camping in the heat + dangerous. Just itching to go though

 

Same! It would be fun to have a big group but apparently you need a permit for a group of more than 5 vehicles. I've heard it's best to go with 3-5 so you have people to help in case of emergency and still have a blast around the fire at night.

 

Haha hopefully not. It's parked in a different house/city every night so good luck. I live on couches...

 

Tried to run it this year with a group of 3 trucks. One bailed last minute and the other broke 30 miles in. Super dissappointed but will have front/rear suspension done by the next attempt.

Will be in flagstaff az next year but will be willing to drive to Barstow or Laughlin end to make the trip happen!
