My dryer went out, so i had to drive clear across the valley of thermal hatred to get a new heater coil. On the way back i decided to bypass trafic and took Olive all the way from metrocenter to the 101 and as we pass the light my stepdad says "Check it out, a typhoon at the light".

I glance back and sure enough, black/black with flames.

We get on the freeway and continue home and about a mile down the road my girlfriend yells "Holey shit another ty!"

Sure enough, white/grey. Clean lookin truck. Around loop 101 and Northern. Anyone on here?


Heh, saw 3 in total that day if ya cound me goin home and stairing at mine heh.

Damn, that's a rare occurrence. I haven't seen a Sy or Ty on the road for over a year (not including mine). Needless to say, if I spot one, they'll eventually need a restraining order... :D

I've seen quite a few over the years, but never a Ty with flames.

I saw a white one with red-ish purple-ish flames in Glendale not too long ago. Same one that was for sale about a year ago.

Yeah it kinda shocked the hell outa me.
The first one my step father spoted and i was all stoked. And then, not 2 streets down the freeway BAM, what appeared to be an immaculate white/grey.

I've been bummed about my Ty being down due to a simple gasket and my moving atm, and seeing those 2 put me in a much better mood. Even though i still wanna drive it heh.

You spotted my Truck and I, Black/ Black with real flames. I was on my way to tune up the truck. I still have some hesitation going on. It is always something with these trucks. One night at the pavillions we had a pretty good showing. I would like to get all the AZ crew together when it is a little cooler. :tup:

The biggest ive seen out at the pavs is 5 of us the weekend i brought my truck home from cali.

Soon as i get the top end thrown back together i intend to make another trip to the other side of earth.
185th ave and elliot to the pavs is a hell of a drive.

Heres the crappy part. In a week ill be moving to Wenden Arizona.
The only way i can explane how far it is out, Take I-10 west twords LA, Cross the freeway median at milepost 63 and drive down a dirt road 3 miles.

Gona be out there a few months and save some cash to put into the TY.
