Hi All,

I'm just checking in as new member. I started off-roading in 1977, sand railed for about 8 years, then bought my first Toy truck new in 1986.  I was very active in a number of 4-Wheel Drive Clubs in CA and AZ up until 2000 when I totaled my 1985 shortbed.

I looked for another Toyota truck for about 2 years before finding one on Truck Trader in CA.  In 2006 I purchased a nearly completely stock Xtra cab for a daily driver. It's been garaged for almost 8 years, only driven off and on for about 2 years, and I've driven it "off-road" only once.

I'm in process of rebuilding my 22RE, and will be considering adding some modifications to make it more 4-wheelable.

I was active on a number of 4x4/Toyota forums, but went dark and dropped off about 6 or 7 years ago.
