    *Washingtonian by way of former Arizonan. Will never claim CA and only here cause of orders and it was the best of my 4 options.

    Really, the weather is good but could use some rain.

    So...who you? Saw a silver 5th gen TRD OR on 880 northbound as I took the exit towards the 580/24. You had blacked out emblems, red recovery points, We had a moment.

    Absolutely. The many forest roads behind arnold are open even in winter. Makes for some really fun trail rides when it snows down to 4k ft. Behind white pines lake there is a logging Museum, take a right right as you go by it and you head into the forest.
    Also Coral Hollow jeep trail is a great 2 hour plus trail right before you hit Bear Valley. However this will be closed due to heavy snow until spring.

    Myself (2013 T4R Dark Gray Trail), a friend (2018 T4R Silver Off-Road Premium), a 2015 Jeep Rubicon and a 2018 Ford F350 FX4 Off Road took a two day geocaching trip to the hills above San Luis Obispo for some off-road fun. Mostly just dirt trails but several water crossings, a very short and bumpy section and some great scenery to include the High Mountain Lookout was which was once a forest fire lookout station. It has been turned over to friends of the California Condor and, as such, has been adorned with a giant mural of the endangered bird which frequents the area.Duo T4Rs in water.jpg DT21 T4R in water.jpgT4Rs in trees.jpg Fire Tower.jpg

    This sounds like an awesome weekend trip. A) I love geocaching! and B) It looks completely doable on a stock 4R.

    A) Do you have a geocaching userID?
    B) A stock T4R will easily do this trip.

    Anybody have any pricing info for CA? I was looking at another thread and it seems that other parts of the country gave about a 2k-3k price drop.

    I just got quoted today:
    19 TRD Premium- $40.5k
    19 SR5 Premium- $38.3k

    Anybody get better on an 18/19?

    That’s not too bad. I paid $41.8k for my ORP in VA 2 years ago. That TTL included

    Isnt that one a bit small? Altamont just expanded the brewery so its huge. Parking lot is also huge so there is plenty of parking. Doesnt matter where honestly as long as I can get a cold beer

    It is a small place and tight quarters but good company. I need to see if matt’s Still there so I can get back into some side work!

    I haven’t been to Alramont though. I’m willing to give it a go.

    We should have, at the minimum, monthly brewery meets
