1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Not to mention Palmer is practically on the California boarder, VS Sedona that was like east central AZ. They effectively just alienated their entire eastern patrons. Fuckers



Now I can't even find Palmer, AZ on a map. I know I saw it before

 

We are the minority. Very few of us traveled from East of Arizona. It's cool they are trying new locations but I'd rather visit Utah than Palmer. Hopefully we can make something happen.

Looks like 19 hours to Moab for you.

 

I didnt see much shade in palmer.

@DJenerated when is jambo next year? I wanna go to moab, too.

 

Yeah, but according to the T2S website the entire reason first picked Sedona was because it's a great destination and it's not too far West that it would discourage eastern travelers to join in. Or something to that effect anyways. Fuckers.

 

It's in early May. Fuck that too. Fuckers.
I vote we go to Arkansas in March or something

 

Yeah it's about the same distance for me whether we do Flagstaff or Sedona or Moab.
Moab is on the bucket list of course.

 

I want to go back to Moab/ Southeast Utah next year. Use Moab as a base and maybe do a one-nighter into SW Colorado. I want to check out Bears Ears National Monument some more too and that's about an hour or two south of Moab. Moab is a much different type of desert compared to Parker and has much more to offer.

Also it's Parker, not Palmer. and the lack of shade won't be bad with the temperature. Desert weather that type of year is extremely nice as long as there isn't wind, low 70s and a little chilly at night.

I might still go to Parker just to camp and hangout since it's only 4 hours, not interested in wheeling much in that area. Moab is only 11.5 hours if I skip the scenic route. Flag is 7.5

 

I'm only going to Jambo this year if @FirstGenVol and @bmf4069 goes.

Or if @Mr.bee finally lifts his truck and puts on some 33's.

Otherwise I'm boycotting Jambo, because it's too hot to camp in Texas in May and Jambo is starting to get over crowded anyways.

I might go if I buy a fan that runs on power tool batteries though.

 

No trees? It'll be like being home.

 

I'm considering going

 

I'm down for Colorado...
Also I just found Parker and it's only 1.5 longer drive for me than Sedona. I-10 the whole way looks like. Problem is once I get that close to CA, what's to stop me from driving to the coast and overstaying my welcome on @RUSTYNUTS couch and starting a band and fucking shit up

 

With them being separated now, jambo is a possibility.

AZ or Jambo?

 

I probably won't make it to Texas if we do Utah. I also want to make it to Arkansas for the epic solar eclipse.

To your point, camping in the heat doesn't sound fun

 

They were a week apart last year . I did both

 

Jambo

 

Better start on that 4wd conversion and TVS1320 install

 

I'm sorry I missed this, got behind yesterday. I see someone else answered up: Parker, AZ.

 

@SHIFTY
and/or anyone else near GA that wants some Brute Force bumpers

 

I want to come explore your Tennessee trails and train tunnels. Your pics always looks fun

 

@Mr.bee @bmf4069 @FirstGenVol @des2mtn let's make plans to visit the Land Cruiser Museum when we go to Moab!

 

That's like a 4 hour haul though

 

If we make the trip we have a friend in Salt Lake City we'd like to see. Win win. She's got a 5th gen 4Runner and might even tag along on some trails.

 

What??? It's not in downtown Moab?

Edit: it's in SLC... Punk!


Oooh open carry in Utah too

 

Addicted offroad has a badass sale going on right now. Including free shipping.

I think I found it, here?

 

You can’t put those bumpers on a cream puff like yours.

 

I have zero intent to add armor. Even if it was a bolt-on affair. I don't legit offroad enough to justify it. 99% of my driving is surface streets, forest paths, and making my way to fishing holes, sometimes thru areas vehicles weren't meant to be ... cautiously. I'd never live it down if I was huckin' and fucked my shit up. The wife would literally remind me about it every time I left the house, for any reason, for the rest of my life.

 

Strange the link is still working for me and I know @Mr.bee was looking at it earlier too
