| Calico Cleanup Trailer theft.
Well we were up for the Calico Cleanup this weekend and one of our Toyota Trail Teams trailers was stolen last night from the Barstow Ramada hotel.
The trailers are 8ft. long enclosed trailers with Toyota Trail Teams logos & event stickers on the back doors.
I ll post pics up later.
If anyone may have seen it last night please contact the Barstow PD.

| Damn, Ron! Really sorry to hear about this after you guys did such an incredible job at our event.
The box trailers can't be hard to identify. Small trailer with aluminum siding and Toyota FJ Trails Team logos on the side with a crap load of logos.
Best of luck finding it soon, Ron...

| Yeah, it sucks. Luckilly I took the trailer with the most stuff to L.A. with me. Its really sucks for Alfred becuse his gear was in there and now he has a pair of pants and a couple shirts, so now he has to get all new clothes. | |

| Good to hear we have lots of backup from the MUD crew. This a pic from Surf n Turf with the type of trailer that got taken, if you haven't seen one at an event yet.  | |

| Trail Team Trailer
Ron, that really sucks, especially after all the help that the Trail Team did at the Calico Cleanup. I think everyone at the Cleanup stopped by the trailers at the Staging area on Sat. I hope Alfred didn't lose ant thing that could not be replaced.
I'm sure you have all of the mudders in Calif looking for a FJ Trailer being towed around town without a FJ Trail cruiser pulling it.
I wish you guys luck finding it!!!! | |
