Who's in Austin, ya'll?

Just moved to Austin from Boulder CO about 18 months ago, as I'm finding out, places like you've mentioned don't really exist down here.... That I've been able to find.

Also hi! New owner of a 2001 SR5 here! :lookout:

I'll be in CO next week and love the front range. Planning on doing a portion of Rampart Range rd.

There's a few spots I like to go to that are near Lake Travis in Lago Vista. Hit me up if you're in the area.

I might do an "easy beginners" run out at Hidden Falls tomorrow afternoon in my stock 4th gen if anyone is interested in joining.

Did a quick "beginners run" out to HF today in my newly acquired stock 4th gen. Been a few years since I have been to HF and chose the fenceline because I remembered the convenient bypasses. Turns out the bypasses are quite washed out. Ended up turning around shortly after the mud pit, but still had a good first run in the 4th gen.

as long as your 4runner has 4wd it's very capable. I went out there with v8 4x4 and my buddy with 3inch lift jeep was shocked that my stock 4runner rolled though everything that he went through. So very capable especially since if you have the new ones you have ATRAC. Locking diffs would be really nice.

I usually go on sundays once a month. will post up soon about going.

nice. I have an SE v8 as well. The power is really nice. I picked up a 94 fjz80 as well. Took it out to HF and it's fun too. Plan on adding ARB rear lockers on the fjz80 also for the 4runner down the road.

Toyotas Rock!

saw a good looking white Trail at Redhorn Coffee/ whatever that crossfit place is over off of 1431 and Parmer this morning. Keep seeing nice 5th gens in that area. couple weeks ago saw an inferno TRDP, black Trail with small lift, a different white Trail, also with a small lift.
 
Who owns the blue one parked at Lowes in Leander? Lifted with the Tepui RT tent? Nice ride! I almost parked beside it and took a photo but will if I drop by again.

I left work to see a white TRD Pro with a roof rack and ladder on the back at the Austin vXchnge/Sungard facility. Anyone here visiting their data center? I don't work for either company here but I do have my permanent office in the building.

Sorry, I typically commute with the wife's Corolla so the 4R was home....
 
I'll be there if I can remember to sign up :-). There are quite a few others on here too that will be there.

At work in Austin and came out to see this white Pro parked next to my TE. Who visits the Sungard/vXchnge facility here?

Got a new Trail Premium today. Went by 4wheelparts and ordered 5x 275/70/17 BFG KD02's (those will go on Thursday). I Need to try and install the Daystar level kit that I bought last week to make a little room for the new tires, I will start in the am and see how far I get...

Pretty excited, my first Toyota.
