    My new ride. Transporting it from CA (Bay Area) to NC (Charlotte) in Feb 2022. Looking forward to 4x4 in NC after living in CA for 42 years. Are there are any GPAA members here?

    Thank you for this 4runners forum. Cheers.

    Welp, the grass is always “Greener” or should I say “Limer” on the other side. That color reminds me of a Rough Green Snake!

    Welcome. Although I live in SC I also have a place in the mountains of western NC. I don't really get on the trails too much but you should be able to find plenty nearby. My wife and I ride the forest service roads a good bit and that's our trail riding. Nice ride btw.

    Moving cross-country is a big step. If you're in need of commercial moving services, consider checking out https://threemovers.com/commercial-movers/. They specialize in commercial moves and could be super helpful for your transition to North Carolina. Also, settling into a new place can be exciting—exploring the local scene and meeting new folks often makes the move feel a bit more like home. Best of luck with your move!
