Off-roading Trip 8/05/06 in Houston!!

[Thai]

Hey all,

We're having another off-roading trip on 8/05/06 at Generalsams.com:

http://generalsams.com/

It is in Huntsville. I think that the gate fee is $15. It is a lot of fun...something for everyone. Family is welcomed.

Last time out, we had a mix of vehicles: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19305&highlight=offroading+5/13/06

Date: 8/05/06
Where: Generalsams park (see link above)
When: around 1 pm

****This may be our last run in this park. I heard that there is a mountain or something that we missed the last times out. We have covered most of everything else.****

Please repond to this thread or PM me if you are going...so that we don't leave anyone behind.

See you on the trails....

Trip to Houston

Hello Thai, I own a 04' 4R V8 and I haven't really challenge my rig to test its off-road capabilities. I live in Austin and I am thinking about taking the trip to Houston but I am not looking into going

Re: Trip to Houston

Here are my upgrades to my rig. Based on your expertise and off-road experience, do you think my rig is capable of what you guys go through?

Starting to look that way. I need to get a hi jack for my roof rack just in case I get flat. By the way, if you need to get a hold of me, my cell #1-512-xxx-xxxx. I really like to meet some offroad friends, maybe join a club. If I go, most likely I will camp for the night.

Cool. I have edited your post to delete your phone number...it's not a good thing to post it on the net.
