Moster 1st gen in Keller???

Ok, every morning on the way to work going up 377, (the last week or so) I have been seeing this big a$$ 4runner comming the other way. its a white first gen, solid axle with a 2nd gen grill/front end and black tailgate, has to be on at least 36x14.5's makes my truck look like its stock again on 225's. Don't know if he/she posts here or not. Would be cool to meet some other first gens in the area (hint hint for chris!).
Its kind of like spotting the great white whale, I only catch fleeting glimpses.

I think I saw the same 4Runner in Roanoke about a week before the TMS race - also going the other direction @ the 114 split. I damn near ran off the road trying to get a good look at it.

Keller eh? I work over in SouthLake/Grapevine. I think I have seen that runner a few months back now that I think of it. It did make my taco look like a mini. Where are there places to go offroading around here?

Yes, that truck is huge!
Every time I post about a truck in the area I get a ton of responses from N Texas people. But thats it just responses!! Thats why I joined the club below. You should come to the meeting. These guys are about keeping trails open for us and good times! Wrench-a-thons and helping fellow wheelers out. Not to mention the discount Chris (valkyrie610) gives us at trdparts4u...

www.toyotatrailriders.com this is a great club that just adopted their own trail in Gilmer (near tyler) and are in the process of building a campsite. Well worth it, they have a meeting comming up next thursday. Gumbo on this forum is aslo a member as is valkyrie610 and strap22.
Ok, wheeling in the area. In fact they are haveing a run at gilmer this weekend, I can't make

check here marshall creek there is a little off camber, lots of dangerous mud Its at 377 & 114.
There is also mineral wells, from what I here is a good day trip.

Yes, we all need to meet up, at least for a b.s. session
send me a pm or email and we'll set something up

Hey whatup N Texas people. I'm from Wichita Falls. I go to Arizona State, but will be back sometime hopefully during the summer. It'd be awesome to get together with some other yota people and do some wheeling. I always just went with friends with tahoes and jeeps, never toys =( Anyways, just wanted to say hey and I miss good ol' Texas. Oh, and how bout them Mavs? Tying it up 1-1 and bringin it to Dallas. Sorry to get off topic, but laters.
