Kelsie is a Toyota lover through and through. Since her first Yota as a teenager to her solid axled beast today. She's driven, owned, traded and upgraded just about every Toyota under the sun. It was awesome getting to know Kelsie and learn about her journey with learning how to work on trucks and wheel them. Can't wait to see what she has in store for us next! 

Westscott Designs 6th Anniversary Rigs & Roast! 

It was time for a road trip... so, Alex, Ben, Zach and I packed up the rigs and headed to Southern California! We hit Joshua Tree and Anza Borrego. We planned on doing a podcast each night but the wind and sand in Anza prevented that. Here is the podcast from our first night in Joshua Tree. Enjoy!!!!

Sir Will is an awesome character. He lives out his Toyota 4Runner and travels the country enjoying his freedom. "Sir William Goes". We caught up with Sir William at AZ Toy Pros on a Sunday afternoon MOD Day. It's always a good time getting to know someone wrenching on trucks and stuffing our faces with Mexican food. Mark (@lmtl3ss_or) invited us over to do the podcast so we broke out the moonshine, started telling lies and calling up the woman. It was a blast. You can find Sir William Goes on his YouTube Channel and Social Media. @sirwilliamgoes

New Years Eve Eve and we gathered at AZ Toy Pros in Gilbert, AZ to ring in the shenanigans before the final countdown. Mark (@lmtl3ss_or) dropped in for a surprise visit so it turned into a party with Alex (@lrg_tree_01) , Ben (@aztoytech) and Steve (???) our mystery guest. HA! We had good time drinking the moonshine, telling lies and calling up the woman! Rubbin' is Racin'... Happy New Year!!! 

We met SCOTT at a "Keep Our Desert Clean" clean up event outside of Phoenix. We were quick to start in on the Yota v. Jeep shit talking. I knew we'd become fast friends! Scott is the Co-Owner of a new Portal start up called Portal Pros. Portal Pros makes portals for off road use. What is a portal you ask? Great question... tune in to find out! 

Chris and I met up out in the desert between Phoenix & Tuscon tailgated a podcast. It was awesome! Chris drives a rad 3rd Gen Tacoma, TRD OR. He's enjoyed building his rig and wheeling it. Tune in to hear about his Tacoma, his awesome events and how we bumped into each other on the trial a couple years ago! It was awesome connecting with Chris in person. Thanks Chris for coming out to boon docks for this podcast. Looking forward to seeing everything he has in store for us. Welcome aboard!

AZ Toy Pros is a Toyota service shop out of Mesa, Arizona run by Ben & Erick. Ben is a Toyota wizard and considered by many to be The Godfather of Toyota! He was a Toyota tech for many years, tired of the dealer life he started his own shop. Erick is the owner of State 48 Overland helping Toyota owners bring their adventure rigs to life with the aftermarket. Both of the dudes have extensive knowledge in their areas and bringing them together to make peoples dreams come true was inevitable. Their love for the Toyota Community and passion for customer services makes them the premier shop for adventure lovers from across the country. I had a blast visiting the shop, meeting the guys and doing the podcast. I look forward to bringing my rig down to AZ Toy Pros in the future for some killer upgrades. Welcome aboard guys!
