Kansas City here....looking to head down to Chadwick for some motorcycle riding this fall....might consider some wheelin in my 4R as well.
I grew up in SW MO and dear hunted in Mark Twain. I remember some fun 4x4 only territory on a fire trail road that ran between the highways that led to BigM and Eagle Rock bridge. Back in the day, we used my dad's K5 Blazer through this area where there were numberous firetrails that led from the main road. Anyone know the area?

I know a few trails behind neighborhoods and in wooded areas all over the northland. My buddy has a CJ5 lifted and 33's, thats what im usually wheelin in. Lookin to get a better 4wd rig like a t4r.... s10's are good trucks but have shitty ground clearance, small wheel wells and open diffs.

Hi Guys... I might be moving near Kansas City, Mo and I was wondering if you guys could provide some insight into the area. How's the weather, cost of living, people, car insurance, and any natural disasters to worry about??
I know it's a loaded question but any information would be great.

Your not going to like hearing this. If you live in SW Missouri and make $75K per year you would need to make $225K per year in NY to have the same standard of living. A 2400 sq. ft. home costs around $175K and the taxes on that home would be only around $1800 per year. The house would also be on a large lot, and very well built and insulated. Gas is right now $1.55 per gallon regular unleaded. Car insurance is very low and the area has some of the most beautiful lakes in the country. Weather? Forecast for tommorrow is a high of 47 degrees and 60 degrees on Sunday. Natural disasters, not on any fault lines. We call it Gods country.

Hey everyone, It looks like we are far outnumbered by our fellow SoCAL and New England 4r owners. Im from the St. Louis area (St. Peters to be exact). The only place I know of around here for off roading is St. Joe State Park (Highway 67 near Farmington, MO). It is a park filled with mine tailings from coal mines in the area. I havent been there in years, but ive heard it gets pretty crouded with 4 wheelers and dirt bikes so Im sure it gets busy on the weekends.
My parents live near there, I will check it out sometime when Im visiting them.
People from the STL area what dealer did you buy your 4r from?

I think there may be 3 of us in AR.
I bought mine in Conway from Caldwell Toyota. I like them and they treated me right. I got a "employee" discount b/c my wife worked at Acxiom at the time and they sell to those employees for 1 or 2% over invoice (or something like that). Ended up saving several thousand off sticker. Landers in LR did the same for the company I work for but I got a better deal out of Caldwell.
The new Landers dealership has tons of inventory. They are at I430 and Colonel Glenn on the SE corner. The company I work for actually built their new dealership, it is pretty nice, much nicer and bigger than Caldwell. They have probably 30+ 4Runners on site on a regular basis. Let me know if you have any other questions.
