Hello to my north phoenix neighbors. 51 and cactus! I think the air is just nicer up here! haha!
I should be able to make it to 4 peaks. If anyone wants to grab lunch and bs sometime just let me know. Work is at the 101 and cactus. (I know, tough drive to work!)
I usually head out at least twice a month. I'm going to sunflower this weekend. Utah on memorial day weekend. I'm always down for a CK run, martinez mine, bloody basin, table mesa. I've been to all of those so I have no problem leading those if we want to head out to one of those areas sometime.

Howdy Neighbor! It's nice to find people around our area! I am down for a monthly run or two. Depending on the day and the notice given!

I think that we should plan a GT (Get Together) sometime at a home that we can let the rug rats run around and sit and talk trucks! My wife rode Sport Bikes for 10 years when we met and rode up to the point when preganant until she couldn't reach the handlebars! So, now she is into Dirt Bikes rather than racing Track. She a total Tomboy and loves the Runner. We need to get the wifes together and I still think a Pavillions GT would be fun! Show all those muscle car and collector cars when a true passion should be like!

PM me SOAZ and we can plan something - perhaps a Karaoke!

Whoa, all you crazy Karaoke type people! Anyone seen the Memorex glass breaking commercial...yep, that's my voice, it's so bad I can break concrete too!

Anyway, I'm usually up for anything. I think this Sunday my brother and I are going to run Broken Arrow, so I'll let everyone know for sure. If we do, hopefully I will come away without anything dented this time. My family is all coming in at the beginning of June, so I'll be busy the first week in June. I graduate the third weekend in June so I'll be gone for those. Other than that, I don't have anything planned.

I'm getting the 2.5" ToyTec spacers from RoofGoof this week. I was going to get the 3" OME890's from ToyTec too, but I was hoping someone in Phoenix sells them, but i've struck out so far. That would give me the lift I want, and I may decide to BL later, but I don't think I'll do that right away.

Here's my goal for the next two weeks:
Full-size spare (when the PO got the new kicks, didn't get 5, just 4)
Radio (Pioneer DEH-P3900MP, so I can hook my sub/iPod up again)
ToyTec lift

Then, it's just odds and ends after that, but I'll stick with this setup for a while.

I would love to have a monthly run. There is so much to do here, and I love getting out and exploring. The only difficulty I've found before, is people want to do runs I can't or won't, but I think we're all pretty much on a level playing field with vehicles, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I am totally down for anything with enough notice given! I am easy! (No, that is another story though.....)

Just keep me in the loop and I think the Pavillions would be a blast with like 5 or 10 of our trucks. I hate those 20' tall, F350's w/ 15 Fox Shocks and enough armor all and wax to be seen from the moon! I think the trail queens surely outshow the pavement queens! Then of course there's the 'Drag' Queens....

I'd be up for a show-n-shine. My rig doesn't really shine that much though, but agree it would be fun to have a group of Toyotas that get used.

Wow - right off the bat there's three of us right in close range. I am @ 101 & Cave Creek. And Weiln is @ 17 & Happy Valley too! This is cool so many are around town and wanting to hang out!

We should begin planning for the Pavillions. I think we should be there about 6:00pm. Then we can all stroll over to 5 & Diner for some dinner! Mmmmmm Chicken Fried Steak!

I'm down to head up to the Pavilions sometime. I don't go because I don't like heading up alone. I'm not in Az right now, so I can't make it this Saturday, but if you guys go any other nite post up so we can take that place over!

and I'm always down for going wheeling - anyday, anytime, just need some reasonable notice

I'll see you guys on Tuesday!!

Sounds like there is some good interest for a meet and greet and show and shine at the Pavilions sometime soon.

Maybe we can figure out a date that will give everyone enough notice to be able to attend.

Then, those that are up for it... we can run Camp Creek for a night run now that the temps are getting up there. It's a mild, sandy but fun way to go with high canyon walls for those who aren't familiar.

Definitely keep me posted, but like 96 Runner, I'm almost completely busy until mid-June.

I've never been to Camp Creek, so I'd definitely try to make that. Nights are definitely better, since it's over 100 now.

I'm available for whatever on the 19th. During the day I'll be replacing the steering rack on my friends 01 Taco but once we get done we want to take it out and give it a run. Or I we could actually wash our trucks for once and head up to the Pavilions. Whatever eveyone else decides is good for me.

Can I get a quick head count of how many people plan on being at 4peaks on Tuesday?
If it's a lot, I'll call on Monday and see if they can maybe section off an area or something.

I'll be there along with my girlfriend.
To make it a little easier to find people, I'll be wearing worn out Red Sox hat.
