TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

I haven't a clue what you're talking about on the gun.

... but I can sympathize with you on the hockey.... hmmmm... not so much. I play goalie for a really good team.

Serious question, though:

I have a choice between a 2015 Trail in MGM with low miles (19,000k), which has a cargo slide and storage compartment as well.

The 2016 Trail in white (1500K) does not have a cargo slide or storage bin (deleted in Canada for that year).

They both compare to the US Premium package. The 2015 is $7k cheaper.

Besides the obvious mileage differences, they both have 5 year/100,000 km (60,000 mile) warranties, which I can extend.

Is the cargo slide something that is actually useful? ... and if so, why?

 

UCA's sold in 7 minutes. That's pretty impressive:

To be honest, I paid $350 3 years ago. Hahaha

 

Got the ADS's taken apart

 

Ball joint is the way to go in Canada, unless you spray the heck out of the uni-balls with Rust Check or Krown. Not for the rust, but for the squeak.

 

Damn I would've picked them up had I known

 

I thought it was my uniballs squeaking all this time, but it was those bushings after all

 

Try Krown rust spray. I know that shit doesn't rust in Cali, but it creeps into everything, and lubes everything. $10 a can and it works better than dry lube graphite.

 

I thought they were greased, but I guess not.

I'm super excited to drive the 4Runner with a ton of front articulation and roughly 2 inches lower

 

@dtaco06 you ever get that quote?

 

No worries. Figured I'd give you a nudge and bother you some more about em.

 

Back on the CCW topic, I have a M&P shield 9mm and it's perfect. Since it's single stack it's nice and narrow, but my big hands have no problem holding and shooting it. That was always my problem with small guns in the past.

 

They are super nice guns. I put Pierce pinky extensions on my G42, night and day difference. Can't find pinky extensions for the P320 Sub Compact though.

 

Tax return was 28 dollars. Woot woot. Half a tank of gas in the F150 hahahaha

 

i have over 30k on the uniballs. no noises nor rust

 

I wish I jumped on those CVT My Thielsons when they were clearing out the small ones.

 

Psh, better than owing $1,100 in Federal! I'm never making that mistake again.

 

I find that the extra length of the "extended" mag is the perfect length for my pinky. I love shooting my gun!

 

My issue was that I got married, so I changed my filing status. Apparently my wife and I make too much money combined though so it doesn't withhold enough taxes. I changed to married but withhold at the higher single rate, so hopefully that'll take care of it.

 

I planned on carrying the 12 round sub compact mag and a 15 round mag with the xgrip spacer
