Really? Yeah maybe we weren't supposed be back there. It looks like they're about to barbwire the entrance off Seward. Pretty lame. Trails were dried up too which made it easy for a stock 4runner. Are there any other places around here to go?

Unfortunately not much within the city, that aren't blurring the lines with trespassing. There's a place south of Norman on the river that is an ORV park. Never been to it, but heard it is decent. The best places seem to be towards the east part of the state.
 
I ran the Canadian River all the way from SunDog Trails in Purcell to Norman on Thursday evening in the dark with a friend in his FJ, took about 2 hours and was a lot of fun. I found the access to the river in norman is at the dead end of Jenkins (south of Lloyd Noble Arena) during the day would be better but getting to use our light bars was great too.
 
Welp, I sold my KR F250 today so now I'm on the prowl for a TE KDSS.

BH Edmond offered me a very good deal on a 2015 TE KDSS, but id have to wait 2 months. Not sure I can wait, Ive got my eye on one in Charlotte NC, fly up and drive it back and start the mods next week.

Id really like to see your rig in person alexb before I make final suspension/tire decisions.. Ive yet to see any modded 5g 4runners around OKC area.

For what it's worth, If you want to see my 13' for suspension ideas and go for a ride I work downtown and live in Norman and would be more than happy to meet up. I run 34' bfg's with 2.5 Radflo w/remote Resi's up front and 1.5 sway a way coils in the rear with radflo rear 2.0.
 
I'm on the hunt for a white 2015 TE with KDSS. Have worked with the guys at BH toyota and they just can't get one (thanks gulf states) so I'm looking at going to the Denver / Co Springs area and driving one home.

That's awesome. I'm surprised the entrance off Jenkins isn't blocked off. We used to go out there all of the time in college. Where's the entrance to SunDog?

Sundog Trails is just east of the bridge that crosses the river from Lexington to Purcell, cost is 10.00 for car and driver, each additional rider is 5.00. Complete river and trail access, trails are limited but river access is good.

Ok thanks for the info! I'll probably give this a shot in few weeks.

Jim Norton is where I found mine as well. They were decent to work with, couldn't complain too much. Gave me fair money for my trade in and seemed to get a pretty decent deal. Much better trade in price than the tool at Bob Howard quoted me.

I still go to Bob Howard for service though since they are a few miles from my house.
 
Nice! You think a stock 4runner would have any problem making the trip from Sundog to Jenkins? I want to do this before the OU/KSU game oct. 18.

Maybe, it depends on the tires really. There is some slightly deep sand that is maybe 3-5 inches deep probably that can get a little squirmy at times but it isn't terrible and that's only on the large sand bars, in other areas the sand is a nice hard pack that is fine. Water at the deepest was maybe 18" if that and the river is low. My buddy got his fj with pretty worn a/t's stuck mainly just playing around, I had zero issues. Let me check the schedule and if you want company/recovery ability I will roll along with you. It does take about 2 hours, granted it was pitch black and we were going slow just to be extra careful.

Sounds good!
 
Rocking one of these now too.

Thought some of you nerdy engineer guys (like [MENTION=66316]1engineer[/MENTION]) would think this is cool. I bought a CNG bi-fuel Tahoe this week. It's a 2wd commuter vehicle for me. Pretty neat I pay about $1.69 per gal eqivilant holds 9.2 gals of CNG in 2 small tanks in the spare tire area in addition to the normal 26 gal gas tank. It holds it at 3600 psi and I get about 150 miles on a CNG fill. Once down in pressure it switches over seamlessly without any driver interaction.

Yes I'll also be keeping my 4Runner

I'm not needy haha. "Nerdy" maybe. Did you do an analysis of costs or did you just buy it to be buying it? What is your mpgE, or miles per gallon equivalent? You should have some serious range out of that thing!
