This thread is awesome! Brings back some memories…my current moonglow 80 was there nearly 20 years ago after meeting Ige the previous year in Commerce City.
@cruiseroutfit - Kurt, what was the date on that issue of Toyota Trails? I'm guessing late 1995 / early 1996?
Yup. Jan/Feb of 1996. The CM history site says Nov/Dec 1995 but I couldn’t find any mention in that one. To throw things off a bit. The cover of the Jan/Feb 1996 was a typo and said “Jan/Feb 1995” but if you open the cover, you’ll see that isn’t the case in it’s the 1996 version.
Fun history!

The Zebrinator!
I think it was Rainey Kirk who won that raffle 40 in the 1990s, but a member of Lone Star bought it later. I was leading fins (I think it was like, 2001 maybe?) and the guy couldn't get up that first sandy hill. I tried spotting him and he was still struggling. I got in and rode shotgun. I noticed he was still in 2WD. We put it in 4WD and he made it right up. He made me promise not to tell his companions

Okay so I got the players right, just wrong order. I remember reading about the keychain thing and the raffle in Toyota Trails at the time, and thought it was cool to lead/spot/ride in such a famous rig.
