Default Thought I would share....Pics from Tacoma meet

Went with my friend to go wheeling with a huge group of Tacomas. We went to Hollister Hills in NorCal and spent the whole day doing trails and what not....

Ooo, looks fun. How hard is that course? (& where abouts is it?)

I've never done any serious off roading, but I'm interested enough to consider trying it out if the course isn't too hard.

looks like fun. I was never into off roading ( other than the occasional rental car abuse), but look like a great time

Haha ya it was a lot of fun. The place is about an hour south of San Jose, and it has a lot of pretty easy trails that most stock SUV's and trucks can handle, then for the more ballsy, they have mud pits, some steep hills, ditches, ravines, and dried river beds. The shot of the tube frame truck with the people around is stuck in a ravine after he broke something. I think he had to work like four hours to get it free.
