    Oh for sure. Some off the books justice would be in order. And for some reason, I had Nam style flashbacks of detasseling corn when I was younger... Not a job I miss :D

    Man, yall posted a lot today! I was busy taking care of a lot of people who made very poor decisions today. Tisk tisk.

    So my next purchase desperately needs to be new suspension. I'm still riding on the stock suspension, and I'm going to break my spine if I don't replace it soon. A wooden bicycle might give a smoother ride. Any suggestions for a mid-priced suspension replacement?

    OME and Toytec were the ones I was looking at before I went the Icon route. 5100s seem to be a common option as well with some new springs. All depends on budget I guess.

    Cloudcroft is one of my all time favorite spots, but I've never wheeled there. I would be way down for that.

    Just got finished changing oil on both differentials plus the transfer case. Next up is a cab mount chop... @Texoma you got that welder working? And do you have stuff to chop the old one back?

    @ChadsPride your late.
    Most of the gravel parking lot is taken up with construction crap.
    We need more Tacomas soon if we are going to have a good line

    Had the wedding last night and have clean up and brunch this morning. On top of that, the O'Reilly's starter I put in less than a month ago has failed, so I gotta deal with that too. I'll be out there for the March show though.
