kyle_22r 03-27-2004, 03:00 PM just goes to prove you don't need 40" tires and rockwells to have a blast :flipoff2:
wa4x4boy@yahoo.com 03-27-2004, 03:07 PM ya, old school toyota's are the best way to go.....
flecker 03-27-2004, 03:09 PM Oldschool! Like 7 years before I was even born oldschool. Reminds me of the outings w/ my dad when I was a kid:D

NOPE but you sure can have alot more fun:flipoff2:
flecker 03-27-2004, 06:26 PM pfff, most the trails we run wouldn't even be if it weren't for the old timers that went before us.... in the time before comps and "well known big name" trails they were the pioneers.
:beer: :beer: To the old fawkers!
luvmeye22RE 03-27-2004, 07:16 PM Ill tip my :beer: to that. When I bought my Tacoma they had a really old toy pickup at the dealership that was restored and running. I wish I could remember what it was called. It kind of looked like a chevy luv in some ways. It would be cool as fawk to put 60's under one of those old beasts!
kyle_22r 03-27-2004, 07:59 PM sounds like a stout. made in the late 60s, i've seen a few for sale here for cheap
flecker 03-27-2004, 08:25 PM Yeah.... the stout! or also it's brother the "hi ace". great little trucks if you can find them not just beat to death. I hear they are numerous Down Under:D
Rescue 03-27-2004, 08:59 PM We've come a long way from that time. Hey the biggest tires at the time were probably 235's now the norm I guess is at 35-37" :D
Camotoy 03-27-2004, 09:03 PM Look at the side lugs, those remind anyone else of tsl's?:eek: :D ;)
Kyron 03-27-2004, 09:57 PM Look at how EASY the "road" was then ;)
flecker 03-27-2004, 10:03 PM :rolleyes: Sorry... but the older guys took way more risk. First of all they didn't have it as EASY as some do now w/ the technology we have today. And in my book, they were the ones who are responsible for what we can do today. Have some respect for yer elders youngin'. What would you know anyways if not for the older generation?

You talkin to ME......... :D I'm just saying that in the pictures the trails are no ware near as difficult as they are today ... the same trails/roads are way erroided with big ledges.
Have you ever seen pictures of the Old Sluce from the 20's or even the mid 60's...... It was like a gravel road :p
I aint taking nuthing from no one but the ones who took the real risks were the ones in covered wagons with there familys in the back :flipoff2:
flecker 03-27-2004, 10:54 PM Wrong again:flipoff2: The ones that came on the boats to plymouth rock:D Aw hell, the old timers may have paved the road... but were taking it to new levels. I think we are both right!:beer: :beer: :beer: all the way round!
Ever make it up to my neck of the woods? There are some very decent and difficult trails from below the Salt river canyon, and many places up beyond the Rim. Lots of great scenery too!
Kyron 03-27-2004, 11:03 PM I havent made it there yet... I'm having too much fun at Table Mesa . you ever "web wheel" at http://www.wildyoats.com/vbulletin/index.php?s=
I am open to new places though ;)
