US Southwest West Valley Phoenix Meet Up

[AZ Trooper]

Anyone interested in getting going a west valley meet up?
I liked the idea of Cabelas parking lot that I saw in another post.
Seems like a good spot off the 101 and Glendale.
Anyone interested? Any other ideas for location?
Would be cool to get one going then down the line meet up with the east valley meet up group every once in a while.
Maybe centralized in north Phoenix off the 17?
I am a beginner and have a novice rig but would be cool to meet others.
What do you west valley overlanders think?

I posted this in the wrong forum.
The Southwest Region Roll Call.
Sorry. Feel free to delete the other.

I'm new, but would love to get a meet up going. Cabela's sounds like a great option.

I'm in North Phoenix (Desert Ridge), roughly equidistant from both groups so I'm looking to get involved with both.

I'm quite experienced off-roading with 4Runners and FJ's but I'm new to overlanding.

Cool weiln12, thats 2 of us.
I have seen in other threads there have been people in the west valley looking for a meet up.
Hopefully we can make this thread grow a bit and get something going.
Looking forward to seeing what you do with that 2019 Tundra.

Any thing happening in November? I am visiting Az from Reno. I am in Wickenburg.

 

[Marin]

Count me in as well, let me know if the meet happens.

 

[AZ Trooper]

The end of November sounds good to me.
We got 4 so far that would like to meet up.
I see in other threads a bunch of west valley members who would like to meet up.
Not sure if it is ok to message them and invite them.
How does Wednesday November 27 work?
Will you still be here Charles M?
Any other suggestions other than the Cabelas parking lot?
Other meet ups get food. I am open to anything.
I just wanna get something going out here so we can grow it.
Meet some people. Maybe take a few pics of the rigs and post in here.
Gotta start somewhere.
What do you all think?

Saturday morning November 30 works also if we wanted to meet up with some coffee and donuts.
Just tossing out ideas.

If your looking for spots, the Dunkin Donuts on 67th right off the 101 has a big parking lot, Dunkin on the northwest of Happy Valley and Lake Pleasant, and there is the Bosa Donuts on Cactus and 75th. These can work for coffee and donuts and have big parking lots.

I’m definitely still in. The 27th and 30th don’t work for me since those are days around Thanksgiving and I’ll be out of town. What about the weekend prior or a weekday prior? I would say if we do a Saturday morning we could get some donuts/coffee and then do a day run if people are interested? There are quite a few places around Bell/101 we could meetup on a weekday evening.

 

[AZ Trooper]

Too close to Thanksgiving. My bad. I forgot I will also be outta town. Lol.
The Saturday prior sounds great.
How about Dunkin Donuts off of the 101 and 67th at 10 am Saturday November 23.

 

[Marin]

I am good with that.

 

[weiln12]

Sounds good to me too. I was going to suggest a day run, but I forgot I have plans that afternoon.

But yep, Dunkin Donuts at 10AM on the 23rd!

That sounds possible to me too.

Hey can anyone recommend a good 4x4 shop?

And a 4x4 alignment shop?

I have always had luck with Firestone on 83rd and deer valley but they do not specialize in 4x4.

We still up for Dunkin Donuts this coming Saturday? 10 am.
I am. Looking forward to meeting a few west valley people.
Been sending some PM's and have a little response.
I got a stock rig so its not a ton to show off but would like to see others.
Hopefully we can hit a trail for a day before Christmas.
Gotta start somewhere.
