    Tires did great on test run. Went through foot deep snow on backwoods road, also drove on packed snow, ice, and slush. Pleasant surprise considering Atturo tires aren't exactly a household name.

    I have an old washer drum that I use for exactly that purpose. Fire doesn't even touch the ceramic paint from the 70's. Made with all the toxic stuff it is!

    Wreaths Across America is having its annual wreath laying ceremony this Saturday.
    Help place wreaths on Veterans graves!

    If you want to volunteer please check the website for the nearest cemetery location.

    https://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/


    I’ll be at Central Wisconsin Veterans Memorial cemetery in King, Wisconsin around 9am.

    7,771 wreaths to be placed! It’s a amazing sight and a unbelievable effort to achieve 100% coverage. All the donations will mean every grave will receive a wreath again this year. If anyone is in the area and wants to help, wreath placing at King begins @10am with a ceremony at 11am sharp.
    Thank you.

    I am new here and wanted to say hi. Bought my first new vehicle ever 22' tacoma replacing a 2002 sequoia with 330k. Previous to this I've had multiples of the original pickup and convertible 4runners.

    I am laughing at how similar this little 4cyl access cab is to those 30+ year old trucks. A few feet of snow unplowed for miles on stock everything the day after I bought it was no problem just like the good old days.

    Shizz is getting real now! Looking forward to hearing how it rides. @McSpazatron has been raving about his set up and has me seriously considering Dobinsons.

    I'll have some Rear Dobinsons adjustable MRA's for sale once I get my shock relocation kit for the 12" travel Fox's welded in. :boink:

    I've also been really happy with the Dobinsons, definitely put them high on the list.
