Oceano Dunes for Memorial Day Weekend

[jmf_tracy]

All,
I am planning on going to Oceano Dunes for Memorial Day weekend.
It is a nice place and some easy 4x4 terrain and fun camping.
It is always better to have a small group to camp with IMO.
Planning on leaving San Jose around 6:00 on 05/27.
Anybody care to join?
here are some pics from 2 weeks ago when i went.

Although I live 15 minutes from them I will *unfortunately* be at the Rubicon that weekend . I think some third gen guys are going the weekend before Memorial thought

bah! All you need is armor, 33's, and a locker and you can take the go-arounds. No crawl box needed

yeah, but it would be easier and less work with a crawl box. I got armor, 285-75-17 (33.8") and a rear e-locker already, but i really want the crawl box. Marlin crawler is working on a linkage to get their tacobox to work in my rig, but not sure when it will be ready yet.

That's pretty sweet! What do you think that'll run $$ wise?

Well they quoted me:
tacobox $2000
install $1260
shorten & lengthen drivelines $200

But i suspect that it is going to run more than that due to the added linkage and they also said that the drive lines were going to run more as they are not as simple as they were on previous models or a tacoma.
