    Stopped by the dealership and bought a new gas cap (hope that solves me P0446 code), bought a manual antenna base to replace my dead electric one, ordered an AntennaX antenna and stitched up my visor.

    Good to hear the pros. I think they look ok. Im not too concerned with how they look. All i know is that bfg makes a great tire and im sure the size doesnt matter. 60 bucks difference in price per tire sure does though!

    I just got a set of 35/12.50/15 General Grabber Red labels for $183 per tire. I'll never go to 16" wheels. The price difference for tires is ridiculous.

    Well, I sold my Tacoma. A week ago last Friday. Dad bought a new small car and gave me his truck (05 Dodge Ram 4x2) so I sold my truck since I didn't have room for everything.

    So, oh well. I'd like to find a '78-'82? 4x4 some day just so I can keep a wheeler in case I ever go back up to Tahoe in the Winter.
