MARYLAND TACOMAS

EOD! Now this just got even more interesting

 

I'm assuming the F16 that crashed in Clinton. Glad nobody was hurt, could have been real bad.

 

I (we) can't tell ya much more than what's already been on the news

 

Pilot did a hell of a job putting it where he needed it

 

What the news says is always BS, we all know that. Pretty simple to put the pieces together just by paying attention. Glad the pilot is OK, he certainly did do a hell of a job.

 

They had only been airborne for a short time when he was having issues and could not make it back too the base where we were awaiting him

 

Yeah quite a debris field. Old jets, lack of maintenance, they got lucky this time.

 

I gave tomwil that 2013 taco grill and he gave me this, thanks again Tom. It was nice meeting you.

 

Wow I didn't realize how hard it would be to find rear end links for a 2nd gen runner locally none of the regular parts stores (Auto Zone,Advanced or Napa ) seem to have them even though I order them online from Napa and got confirmation of order when I went to the store today the guy tells me "oh we don't really pay attention to online orders because most people never show up" I told him about my confirmation and he said he could order them today but I'd have to pay and additional shipping fee which puts them around 70 bucks shit for 50 bucks more I could get quick disconnects .Frustrating since I wanted to install them this weekend .

 

Also in case anybody's bored Sunday will be doing a little wrenching on trucks at my place on @muddog67 and maybe @armyofsquirrels stop by if you want just let me know and I'll pm my address to you which is in Frederick county

 

Rockauto.com

 

Check to see if any of the Dover PA or the York PA stores have them in stock and if they do I will pick them up for you and bring them down on Sunday

 

Yeah I will end up ordering online most likely but was trying to get them locally to do this weekend

 

It's no big deal I'll just order online later for a cheaper price and do them later

 

I was just looking back at pics of my Tacoma when i bought it with the seized engine.

 

This is it in Texas picking up my new camper about a week after i got it up & running. I put 3200 miles on it in just 8 days on that 1st trip. We went to New Orleans, all over camping that week. Not one issue the whole trip (didn't even burn a drop of oil). All my buddies & brother have new trucks and was telling me i was crazy for driving a $500 truck with a just installed salvage yard motor so far so soon. My brother even offered to lend me his new Tacoma for this trip but of course i declined. I told'em its a Toyota, i'll be fine!

 

Anyone have any pointers on what dash kit i should get from crutchfield?

@TicoTRD @Taco Guy11 @colinb17

 

Crutchfield is a ripoff. Metra makes the best kits on the market but buy somewhere else.

 

I mean this is my first time actually pricing this stuff out. I literally have no idea what i'm doing. All i know is what head unit and back up camer kit i want...

Don't care where it comes from. Just want to order it all and do it hopefully in may.

 

I ran a car stereo shop and competed in SPL competitions for 10 years. Been certified in 12v electronics since 2001 If you need help, I'm more than happy to assist. Definitely go with Metra as a brand for your dash kit and harness. Which stereo and cam are you looking at?
