    the picture was at gilmer. As for why, its just something I feel is necessary right now. I think its time I take a little break from it. Perhaps once I have graduated, and have more time and money, I will build a new rig, one that fits me better. I hope to take the money from the sale and pay off all of my credit cards, and maybe put a little lift on the tacoma. I may still go on trips, but as a spectator instead.

    Say it aint so. I think you should stop thinking about mods for it and just wheel it the way it is. **** everything you dont like about it, just leave it alone. It already kicks ass and is more capable than 90% of the other vehicles in the club. Besides, the market for toyotas is already saturated.

    Yeah, I really think you'd regret it once you were standing there watching everybody else wheel. Like Robert said, it doesn't have to be a money pit if it's already together and wheelable. Just don't spend anymore money on it unless you absolutely have to. Just my opinion.

    Everybody is getting out of Toyota stuff. Why didn't you just tell Scotti two weeks ago. You would have saved him a couple of grand and a lot of windshield time.

    okay guys, calm down. I've been thinking about this for a while now. I do love wheeling the buggy, but sometimes you have to consider other factors in your life. I would like to get out of debt and start saving money. I could do whats been said, and just try to wheel with out spending money, but even that is not really possible. Think about how much each trip costs. Entrance fees, gas for the buggy and tow rig, food, camping. It all adds up. And remember, I allready have the credit card debt racked up. Its not like I can forget about it and make it go away. I also don't plan on just giving the buggy away. If I don't get what I want, I keep it. Simple as that. As for telling scotti, I did mention it to him a few times, and he never seemed interested. To small I think.

    Another consideration I have is just how much do I get to wheel? I've had this thing for a year and a half, and other than a few little trips to 47, I've wheeled 3 times (clayton, gilmer, katemcy).

    I have thought about selling the Scout to get a hot rod, but I don't think I could get dick for it anyway.
    Boats and hoes

    Stumble in to the liquor store
    With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
    I know just what I'm lookin for
    Thunderbird will do just fine.
