50+ thread

first i never finished saying what i was saying so technically there was no bad language. i'd be damned if i'd refinance being that close those people are stupid. i've got like 11 more payments and people are asking me to refinance they're nuts

 

Hey Andy, as requested, I turned 50 in April, and like many of you this is the best time of my life. Definitely don't have any regrets, we all gain wisdom as we age. I have 2 grown boys 24 & 21. A second wife of 15 years (20 together), who also celebrated her 50th just in July. She loves going out 4 wheel' and exploring as well. I've been in law enforcement for the past 10+ years. And prior to this, we both drove long haul together for over a decade (99% US). This is my first Taco and I love it!! I have found out so much information from all of you guys. Like most, the mods don't seem to end. Good to be here. Thanks guys and gals!

 

welcome aboard i'm rt behind you i'll be 50 in december. it's a great website and you can glean tons of good info from the different threads although sometimes you may have to wade through some bs to get to it. this thread ,however, is hands down the best on the site. we may not do alot of talking about trucks on here but the people are great, supportive, and genuine

 

going to bed godd night ya'll

 

I tried too something about being traded or sold instead

If I "hang-out" for a little longer the better half will have "no choice" BUT to let me purchase another truck

Dealership is slow, watching paint-dry slow BUT my checks still ca$h nicely

 

They CAN make medical exceptions.depending on dosages,distance driving and a whole lot of B.S. shorter med card times;months instead of years and constant DR up dates

Sadly, that is why I stick to my regiment of "Legal drugs" and diet.....that D-word literally scares the hell out of me....

Hey Casper, chin up at least you don't own a Blue Tacoma

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Yea what she said

 

When ours is slow my check cashes like wringing out a dry wash cloth. No work, no pay. Really sucks when there is a blizzard and you have to be there and you stand around all day for free. Kinda like working on some shit box for free but you don't get your hands dirty.

 

Very nice intro.
This is a family. Like any family there are a few odd ball ones. You kinda learn to live with it. Lots of P.M. Messages go back and forth.
We watch out for each other, help each other.
Welcome.....

 

Dam I can't sleep so here I am. My only free day and I'm sitting pounding keys at 4am.
I got a refinancing letter with 5 years to go... Ahhhhhhh no.
Its funny when your shop sends you trade in incentives or lease deals. Or they see a nice older vehicle and they come out and scope it out and make a trade in assessment. Hey dude this is MY TRUCK. Get back out front.

 

Good morning kids, well I got the lawn mowed yesterday after the rain cleared out.No real chores today,probably will clean the truck again,go grocery shopping with the wife,finish the install of a USB port in the back of the truck.Well y'all try and enjoy the day,Monday will be here before you know it.

 

Have A Great Morning All!
After coffee I'm going to relocate the horns and paint stuff behind the Grill Black on The Taco. Enjoy the Day!

 

I never did post a picture of my truck,not my house,my buddies,we have been friends since we were 5yrs old,he lives 4.5 hrs. way.

 

Good morning all and have a great day.

That is the right way to do it IMO Jim. I didn't relocate the horns just painted everything flat black. There are times when the sun hits it just right wish I would have relocated them.

Leave 2 weeks from today for the North Shore grouse hunting with the dog for a week, time to start moving from a list to actually packing and doing things. Got my hunting license yesterday and picked up some purple (16 ga.) shotgun shells. Completed refinishing the stock on my 1949 grouse gun and changed out the square head flathead stock bolt with a standard 1/4 x 20 hex head like I always do. Well turns out Ithaca 37's below serial number 300,000 had different threads, and guess I have the heavy hand of a pit snipe yet. First couple of threads are now 1/4 x 20 then felt the resistance and stopped. Picked up a tap yesterday and once I have another cup of coffee time to run the tap. Going to put in the tech deck extreme today so I can use Ram Mounts to mount my electronics so need to remove the HU.

 

16 gauge ?????
Grouse need a 10 gauge. May not be able to find them after but they would make a nice puff...

 

Grouse????
It's Paaaatrige.

 

In a pear tree

 

Goodmorning everyone
getting ready to fluid film the truck this week any pointers?
I was looking at the tech deck If you could let us know what you think of it. thanks

starting to get ready for winter!!

 

hey Jim I like the black taco. but I could never have a black one up here in Vt. too many dirt roads. I would have to wash it everyday.

 

Jim (jd'staco) I finally got the Bluetooth trans temp to work.
