I thought it would be interesting to see what our clubs members feel are the best or are their favorite 4X4 websites. I'm not that much of a web wheeler but I would like to find some good websites to visit. Our club members constantly amaze me with their knowledge of wheeling! I will start with this one that apparently involves two brothers and their sidekick:

Not much of a "4x4" website but I do love that I can look up almost every trail I have ever heard of on here. It will give directions, nearest gas station and all the highlights of the trails and a whole bunch more.

Some of my favorites...

Marlincrawler.com

TacomaWorld.com

TTORA.com

ih8mud.com

youtube.com (find any tutorial you could ever dream of!)

myoffroadradio.com (Ham radio classes, working on recovery equipment retail shop, and trail maps (similar to 4x4trailmaps, but downloadable GPS Tracks and repeater coverage for the trail, with an easier user interface to search for trails)... currently uploading 120 offroad trails for NorCal alone. Just putting the finishing touches on the ham classes, then will start working on the trail maps and trail guides).

 

Facebook:

First Gen 4Runner Mafia

Norcal 4x4 (More volunteer off road recovery based for NorCal... gets quite active during the winter)

Norcal 4x4 Crew

Toyotaholics

 

Least Favorite:

Pirate4x4.com (Too many ads and pop ups... lots of great information on there... but holy hell, it can be such a horrible user experience)

That's one of the reasons that I asked. I find the black Pirate4X4 background difficult on my eyes if I read it for more than a few minutes.

One of my favorites also!! LOL!!  Thanks Jeff

Pirate use to be a great site until they sold it and now morons live there.  Plus all the ads now.

Posse4x4.org has been a favorite of mine for a long time.

Um...what?

Wow! That’s very cool that you help others in need. Thanks for doing this. 

If you ever need help. Post up. I would be willing to help if I can get off work.

If the rain holds up this weekend, we will be going back in to Big Sluice middle of next week to finish getting the jeep out (hopefully) lol. I just did a recap of our last attempt on the "Bear Valley Mid Week Run" thread under trail runs.
