Sad Day

Just to let people know the TORG site is shut down due to the lack of interest.

Yup! The old site is down also. The vids were awsome. I have some of them. White Trucks productions mostly. Keep the faith though. This is just temporary. It will never, ever die. It will live on forever with us and when the time is right surface again.

I went through dark times with Larry and Pass Patrol like this. But he is up and going 15 years later with Tales & Trails. So never say die, just say will take a break for a while. Everything is still there we just need to wait for the next time around.

That is sad. I'll miss the site. Lots of fond memories over there and met some good people threw that site.

I thought all the vids were great. I always liked scrolling threw the run pics also. And then if I got bored, it was off to play the games.

I know that there was a lot of hard work, time and personal money put into it. And it was done pretty much single handedly.

So hats off the the guy who loves RED trucks soooooo much, that he has RED flowing threw his veins......

Yep, certainly a sad thing, it used to be that I would check it daily just to keep up with you all, If I didn't I would get behind, people would post faster than I could read. Then it kinda fizzled out, I don't understand why, its a sport that we all still love, however the thing that killed the 4x4 enthusiast the most was the price of gas I believe.

Quite honestly I haven't been there since the last CO trip. I got tired of checking it and nothing new was posted for days on end.

I will miss it though-- I still have a TORG liscense plate on the front of Elvis. Guess I will have to design a new one.
