Re: New England Summiteer's Get together

Hi All! I have been lurking for some time and thought it was time to join. .... Although i don't have an FJ for my personal vehicle i do have one that we outfitted with TRD components for minor offroading. My dealer principle (owner of Rockingham Toyota in Salem, NH) asked me to see if there was any interest in having meets, trail rides etc. Keep in mind we are new to this so we would need to be showed some stuff.

I see that there is already a tight nit community on here who have meets. What we would do as a dealer is provide everything for the meet, trail ride etc.

What it comes down to, is we are looking to form a local FJ owners "club" and induct new members (possibly after sale of new FJ) so we could show them what the Fj is capable of.

Any thoughts or comments?

Thanks for your time
Timmy

Re: New England Summiteer's Get together

I can't suggest a shop up that way - but, if everyone would consider coming down the NJ direction we could all meet up at "ok 4x4 and tire" in Stewartville, NJ. They got stuff... and it's not too far from Rausch Creek. Could be a good NE run.

Re: New England Summiteer's Get together

Cruiser Solutions in Hampstead is a good place. They're are a couple clubs, though as far as I know nothing FJ specific. The closest I know about is Yankee Toys, which is about Toyotas.

Sounds like a cool idea to me, I know there are plenty of people up this way that would love to have a club to meet with and have trail runs to go on.

Thanks for the information. So, as far as you know there is no FJ specific clubs in this area? This is a great place to start then!!!!!! Is there any interest from members on here for this idea?

I think you'd probably find some. You should start a thread for it and see who responds. I know I'd be interested.

I help run an off road group for NH, we organize trail runs on NH Class six roads. We also do off road class's teaching newbies to the sport the basics, safety, recovery, and most importantly tread lightly. We have a lot of FJ members including myself, but we also have a lot of members in that area that would be interested in something like that, that don't own FJs but either own Toyota's or other vehicles and might be interested in buying an FJ.
Here's the site: ExploringNH Forums
I would be interested in helping you out.
As mentioned before another club that specializes in Toys is Yankee Toys
They have a few new FJ members(I'm also a member)but they are mostly old FJ40 member, which are awesome to watch out on the trail.

I never belonged to a club before I bought that dam FJ, now I belong to 3 clubs, am on 5 forums and like I mentioned I now organize off road runs and also help on trail cuts developing private land to have runs on...the FJ changed my life

Re: New England Summiteer's Get together

Wow, this is great. Seems like there is some interest. I will have a meeting with the principle to see where he wants to go with this. This could be a great opportunity for Rockingham Toyota to be tied in with such a respected group of people...
