Lone Star Land Cruiser RoundUp, March 14-18


This year's annual Toyota Land Cruiser event was another huge success with over 70 rigs, multiple vendors, the FC Cruiser Team, and the best damn band in country music...the John D. Hale Band!! The weather was great and tons of folks showed up. This year the landcruiser crowd may have set a Katemcy record with cruisers from 17 different states from Oregon to Florida! The Oregon boys from Metal Tech 4x4 trailered from Portland, toasted a trailer in Utah, bought a new trailer, and kept driving to Texas. And they vowed to do it again next year! (well maybe not the trailer buying part). Check out some of their photos at HERE. A host of other photos are on the net on sites such as the LSLC site and Pirate 4x4. And no, I didn't roll over on the start of waterfall trail on purpose. The ever-so-kind land cruiser crowd wouldn't pull me back over until they all wasted a half a roll of film taking pictures of my rig to post on land cruiser sites : ) Doc Troutman kept with tradition and did his annual 'dance' during the concert Friday night. Scary! I'm afraid to see what next year brings. Great event and great folks! Look for a full story in Toyota Trails. We're ready for the next one!!
