Looks awesome! Pretty sure I will start doing that sometime soon.

Hope things turn out well for you Kevin, and that you can calm down and relax!!

Supposed to get up to 55* here today. Got some things done this morning and getting ready to head over to the river and check on the Eagle migration. Heard a Robin this morning, spring really is trying. Windy so cool but not cold.

 

Is that what that is ????
Is it hot ???

 

This batch is mild

 

Ok my diversified group of friends. I have to make a 7 hour trip this week to my FIL house to clean it out because it's being sold. I'm taking the truck to bring some stuff back (not that I really want it) I'm trying to decide between only bringing back what the truck will carry or renting a small U-haul trailer. Will my little 2.7 with the automatic pull the little trailer home with no problem? I can't help but imagine a small U-haul with some furniture and an aircompressor in it wouldn't be much lighter than the steel trailer I pull with a 650 pound 4wlr on it. 7 hours and about 1/3 is mtns. What are your thoughts?

 

Ahhhh

 

Back when I had my '84 Toyota, I pulled a '49 Mercury 4-door (a flippin' TANK!) behind it (with a tow bar) from North Carolina to Central Indiana. We're talking a 22R (Not even a 22RE) It was a manual tranny, but none the less, I made it home. Wouldn't do it on a weekly basis, but a one time deal....It wasn't the worst thing I ever did. Just go slower that usual, take your time, and realize it's as much a problem towing DOWN hills with a light truck as it is towing UP hills.

 

Nixx!! Hope all is well Kev!

 

I had a 91 extra cab 4 cyl. I towed a loaded U-Haul trailer the smallest enclosed one from Md. to Vt. Like Blue said "wouldn't due it on a weekly basis" but it cane be done

 

Thanks Bill I would think it would be no problem then I was just a little concerned with the automatic. I don't have a tow package or anything but I really can't imagine a little 5x8 uhaul with some furniture can be all that heavy to pull

 

Thanks.
Me too.
I'm needing to research my scan gauge and set alarm on temp if I can. Idk.

 

Thanks.
I see some dark stout beverage in my days plans later.

 

Silver lining.

 

Good Afternoon Peeps! Looking for A Pro Tip on a good Spark Plug Gap for the 1GR-FE V6. The book calls for 0.043in. I've read that most peeps go with 0.040. Any opinions are welcome!

 

Yeup

 

Factory plugs, factory gap

 

Damn fire ants are out with a vengeance this year.

 

Same here. I might get the shotgun and take out some frustration on them later.

 

Thank you Sir. I'm searching the Web for this type of gauge that comes with 043. Setting. No Dice. I like using these over the round disc type. Might need to flag down a snap-on Truck Lol!



Thanks Mike!

 

This might make it interesting.

I'm in no place to give advice right now but all I know is that I had a full pallet of carpet grass in my old 97 4 banger clutch and hauled it home no problems. The suspension was about wasted afterwards
