    Yes sir, it’s pretty awesome. I originally was after a cement trail edition but was told it could take up to 4 months, then my wife suggested the Venture on the lot. Couldn’t say yes fast enough!

    Yes the rack might be coming off once the new wears off.

    Welcome from Canada. I have a family connection in Austin and before Covid used to love going there. Cool place.

    Oldtoyotaguy,
    Speaking of Covid... Ya think the border between the states and Canada will open soon? It's looking like my annual fishing trip is going to be put on hold this year, and that really sucks.

    Unfortunately, no, Toy4X4. Maybe once an effective vaccine comes out in 2021, or if the US could get control of Covid, whichever comes first. But it will be extended on a monthly basis, but everyone in Canada knows it won’t end soon. Sad, for the longest undefended border in the world.

    Welcome Txbobcat!

    A fellow Austinite here as well. Sounds like quite a few of us River City / ATX folks here.

    Although, my T4R lives in NM. Lots more off-road opportunities in NM than around ATX.

    Once again, welcome and Enjoy!
