I've made it to quite a few of the Texas State Parks. Good luck finding a place to drive off-pavement though. This is my biggest complaint about them. Not so much as a dirt road to drive down at all the ones I've been too. They are very nice for camping, hiking, etc though. My favorite area...

Two days of this place is absolutely not enough. To drive that far and spend only two days there is cheating yourself. It is a truly amazing place. I went with a small group of offroaders for a long weekend stay and we covered enough to make it worth going but we only scratched the surface...

It's the first thing I put on my new Tacoma. My old Landcruiser has a permanent dent below the passenger door and behind the front wheel because the previous owner was driving on his deer lease and dropped off a small "step" that was deeper than he thought. It's not worth fixing but even...

I got the viair 400p with automatic shut off and I'm very happy with it. I like that's it's portable vs mounted in my truck like my arb was on my old 4 runner.

Such a tough question. I grew up sleeping in ground tents like many others have. I have some very nice ground tents and will use them again soon depending on what kind of trip I want to do. My son (currently 3 yoa) and I always go camping together and we both love my rtt which is currently...

Thank you very much for the info. It's hard for me to spend so much money on something that I don't seem to use like I would a fridge or rtt or whatever. However, in reality the suspension gets used everytime you get in the truck. And then I think about how I have the "upgraded" Bilstein...

Ugh. Here i sit looking at my new completely stock 2017 Tacoma realizing how much I need/want to do to it like you have to yours. I don't want a bed topper on mine but the other stuff on your truck looks awesome. I'll certainly reference this again in the future. I'm having a real problem...

Thanks for the info. I was looking at the icon systems already so I guess I'm on the right track. Your truck looks great by the way.

Can you give some specifics on your suspension and wheel/tire setup? I can't decide what to do on my tacoma suspension. I just bought it and haven't done anything to it yet. I can't handle being totally stock. :)

I went to Big Bend last year and it was so awesome. I can't wait to go back this year. I was also exploring the internet for NM areas recently for long weekend trips so I would be interested in either place or both. In Big Bend we stayed at a private campground called Rancho Topanga with a...

I had a 2015 tacoma and just got 2017 tacoma trd offroad. I am very happy with the tacoma but the way the transmission shifts is somewhat annoying. Besides that it's very nice. It has crawl control, locking rear diff, and the multi terrain select. None of that is as good as a paid off...

Don't get me started! ok too late. I've done both. I've got a trailer that has way too much stuff in it with my tent and awning mounted on the top. However, I also have the bed bars from all pro off road so I can move my rooftop tent from the trailer to the truck or mount my Yakima basket on...

Hi from possum kingdom lake (to your west).

Tempting. I'm not really familiar with all the different light bars so let me check and see if this is something that would work for me. I like the combos but I could add some floods to get the same effect I guess. I know rigid I'd probably the best.

I was in the same place you are. It gets a little confusing. Keep googling because there are a lot of good resources out there. My setup is very simple. I have a small battery isolator mounted in my truck with a small blue sea fuse panel that I have my cb and arb fridge plug wired to so they...

Thanks for welcome everyone.

Yeah that bumper will survive a direct nuclear strike I would imagine. Lol. I have family up in the Troy area of Montana. I've never been there but can't wait to go.

Thanks Levidale. My trip to Big Bend was a short one so I certainly want to go back again soon. It was nice once you get there but getting there seems to take forever.

Ugh yes it is. That was put on there by the previous owner. I swear that thing weighs a thousand pounds! lol I plan on replacing it soon. That's what happens when a bunch of country boys decide to build a front bumper for their "deer lease buggy". They were even kind enough to weld it to...

I'm not sure if I am supposed to start a new thread or add a post to the other one so I'll do both. I'm David and I live near Possum Kingdom Lake which is west of Ft Worth, Texas. I've grown up camping and doing various outdoor activities. Last year I built a camping/overland/expedition...
