    A new battery tends to help... I'm hoping the weather holds out for a couple more days. I want to take it out for a drive while there is no salt on the roads.

    What I would give for no salt on the roads. With brine, it sits in the grooves in the road and rain brings it back up. So it lingers far longer than just rock salt.

    We've had enough rain to get most of the salt/brine crap off the roads. I haven't driven my Tacoma since November when they started salting the roads. This has been a weird winter around here.

    It's been a weird Winter in a lot of places. I'm torn between being okay with it, since no one wants single digit or worse weather and less snow means less salt/brine, and not being okay with it because weather is supposed to be a certain way for many reasons.

    It wasn't technically "today", but I never got the chance to post it when I did it. Pretty proud of it considering I had never done anything this involved on a vehicle before. But thanks to this forum and the all important garage mechanic master manual youtube, I was able to pull it off :thumbsup:. No spring compressor, just followed the video on how to decompress the shock/spring with a floor jack, then obviously reverse the process for install.

    My apartment life working conditions, it even felt smaller than it looks.

    And this is what I swapped over to.

    Pretty sure it's a truck but I'm not 100%, lemme call an expert in to discern... *cuts to commercial*

    Also sidebar.... @m3bassman why are you using crappy IG filters for truck photos.

    I usually just go off trail, drive up onto fragile tundra soil and change my oil there.
