Grimace, sorry we missed you. We left about 1:45 PM.
It was a poor turnout do to not enough advanced notice.
It was pretty overcast today too.

Did not get a whole lot of pics.
The president of the WA chapter of TTORA has a pretty impressive Taco.
Factory locker in the rear, and an ARB IFS Air Locker up front.

He has a bracket he made on his ARB bumper for the on board air hose, and two more holes drilled into the bracket for his future on board shower set up.
Same shower setup I'm going with.

Here are the few pics I got.
Shot of Gene & I

Same

The money bucket

same

Service Manager Matt's 4 door Taco

Rob's (TTORA President Taco)

Same

Same, notice the synth winch line, and on board air quick disco

Did not get his name. He's running Demello Off Road sliderz, the same as Rob's

Same

Rob's Fabtech coil overs

Bill's rig

Same

Some of the stuff from my cargo box

Group shot

Notice the laptop on Rob's hood. With that he can tie into his rigs computer and make timing adjustments in real time. Other adjustments can be done too. I did not realize this could be done.
I was pretty impressed.

He is going to have another meet there this fall, and hopefully with enough notice more will show up this time.

Rob's Taco will also be sporting a new 6" lift come Monday.
He's going to have to cut the cross member out, and lower the diff some.
After the new lift is in, the CV boot angles will be straighter than a stock rig almost, even after he dial in some lift with the Fabtech's too.

Gene's rig is pretty sharp. He also has on board air via ARB air-comp that powers his ARB Air Locker in the rear.

You will also notice on Rob's and Matt's grilles that it is chrome that surrounds it.
Toyota has a dark gray one that replaces that, and Rob will be sportin' one of those soon.
That will look great with his bumper.
Corey

Hey Guys,
Sorry I missed it. I would have contributed if I could.
Hope some of the other tacos showed up throughout the day.
Pretty busy weekend though.

Of course all of your rigs shined sooo sweeet. Made the rest of us proud!!!

Suffering from a pretty fun camping trip.
