    FS - 15" Chrome steel Tacoma rims (4)

    The rims came off of a first gen Tacoma project we have since sold. They are in really nice shape, minimal rust on a few edges. The tires are pretty useless to most people. We used the wheels and tires for moving the truck on a trailer to races. Asking $100 for all 4 and to include a black...

    235/70R16 A/T WTB, Phoenix area

    Surely someone around the Phoenix area has a set of used 235/70R16 A/Ts (or 225/75R16) lying around their garage, collecting dust that they wouldn't mind clearing out? I'm working on a new off road project and just need a set of tires to get me going, mostly for fitment, and a few excursions...

    WTB - 5-4.5" 16" rims/tires (4 or 5)

    I'm working on a new off-road adventure project, similar to my Celica. I'd like to get wheels and tires, on a budget, to get this dream project rolling. I'd rather not buy brand new tires before I know what size is going to work best. Right now, I'm thinking 225/70R16 is most likely what will...

    Expo Celica's Sept. rally/exploring trip

    Arizona Exteme Shortcourse Rally 2013 The rally wasn't going to be the normal stage format, but a 14-mile loop on private property. This meant a very compact format, good viewing opportunity and service right next to the start/finish line. I was excited because Laura would get to ride along...

    Gorman Ridge Rally 2013 (from the 999 seat)

    Gorman Ridge Rally 2013 Once again, I signed up to run Course Closing (999) duties, following the last rally car at a good pace. I seem to have fallen into a great/fun job for both myself and Carlos (the adventure Celica). Along with me, I have a HAM radio operator in the car, to call...

    Celica trip to the Rim (take 2)

    Well, we had another great adventure this past weekend, 600 miles in the Expedition Celica, 250 plus of it on dirt roads. It was my birthday weekend, so my choice was to head north to hang out in Christopher Creek. The plan was formed last month, when we tried to go camping on the Rim, in...

    Celica trip to the Rim and back (was suppose to be a camping trip)

    My girlfriend and I planned for a quick one day camping trip up north, taking the Celica to see if you can even camp from it. Friday night, we got the car mostly packed up with sleeping bags, tent, cooler, chairs, extra blanks and pillows, etc.. Saturday morning, we got up at a reasonable...

    Expo Celica day trip again...

    This year, we took our day outing in the Celica on New Years eve, under the loose premise of finding some old off road friends out near Wickenburg, at a place they call the Jeep Club. We got a late start, mostly due to the post holiday lazy sleeping in mode I was in. I tried to avoid...

    Prescott Rally prep

    Yeah, I know, not a rally web site, but it will be an adventure. Once again, the Expedition Celica will be doing Course Closing (Car# 999) duty, making sure everyone makes it out safe. I've taken a que from an off road race prep company, and built what I think is a VERY cool fire extinguisher...

    Expedition Celica in Long Beach May 14th

    Expo Celica in Ridgecrest CA, Part 2

    Another memorable rally experience, again as the Course Closing Car/Fast Sweep/999, in the Celica. Until February, I had never been up to Ridgecrest Ca.. From Phoenix, it's a decent haul, just shy of 500 miles via the southern route across I-10. My girlfriend and I decided it would make the...

    Short trip in the Expedition Celica

    This past weekend, we decided to take advantage of the amazing weather right now in the desert SW. No real plan at all, just knew we wanted to get out for the day. Breakfast at The Farm at South Mountain, stopped by Bass Pro Shop while heading across the 202 to the east valley, since niether...

    Phoenix to Ridgecrest Ca w/ the Expo Celica

    So, the point of this outing was more about getting away for a few days then racing. The entire day, we raced a total of 4.8 miles, 1.2 miles per lap session. Total round trip was 950 miles of towing, getting away from the office for 3-1/2 days was priceless. My girlfriend and her daughters...

    Celica's search for snow

    Last weekend, to decompress from my holidays, my girlfriend and I decided to go for a long Sunday drive in the Celica and search for some snow, rare site around Phoenix. Originally I wasn't planning on doing any off roading, but changing our minds is what expedition travel is all about, right...

    "Course Closing adventure for Prescott Rally '10" Prescott Rally 2010 This year, I did things a bit differently. Since I'm still recovering from my surgery this past summer, physically and financially, I decided to volunteer. I signed up to do pretty much whatever they wanted/needed. But...
