The Lair

GM @EatSleepTacos & homies of the lair.

@fatfurious2 that camper is the shit! Great find

@Casper66 it sound like a great idea. Have a tear drop or pop up trailer on the ready amd hit the road.

I am in a completely different time of my life than you. I got a 9 month old and a 2 yr 8mo old at home. Going grocery shopping is a task I would hate to imagine going camping.

 

I am also in a different time.. all my money goes to truck. dont have a gf. (want one though)


all this talk of caps, is making me look for one..

 

Little ones can travel just fine. It takes just a little more prep work but after the first couple of times it's easy. Enjoy every minute you have with them as before you know it they'll be gone. My oldest is in Ca. she graduated college in '14, the youngest is at Va. Tech. 3 semesters left and college is done and in just a couple of days I make my last house payment paid for with no assistence as everything else we've done it all on our own. I may just be a dumb redneck with no skills but we have managed to provide our kids with more opportunity than we were ever afforded. One of the best parts is I just turned 50 last Dec.

 

you throwing a payoff party?

 

Doubt it, maybe, idk not much of a party person anymore. I'd love to have a big TW cookout but the flower beds and stuff look like shit rt now. With basically only 1 hand to use for the last year and a half my outdoor gardening has suffered. I can't spread mulch or anything and it takes almost 20 yards to do all the flower beds around here. We'll see. I'd really like to go out and hit some more trails. The last time I got out was rt before the operation and it's not healing quickly I'm a little leary of getting bounced around on any trails rt now

 

probably not a good idea to bounce around if you are still recovering..

 

It was torn up way worse this time than last year. Doctor still not allowing any strengthening therapy. My sugar is still too high and that isn't helping anything either. I've been out of work for 10 weeks so far this time. Last year it was 5 1/2 months and he says this time will take a good bit longer if I'm able to work again doing what I do

Looks like he's throwing in a sleeping platform and mattress too!

Good morning everyone!

 

The key to a good burger is to get the grill good and hot like you did to get a good sear on them right up front. But, as soon as you drop the patties on, cut the heat to low...then let them cook, only turning them once...its like Ramone says...

 

I'll be sure to try that next time!

 

Is it just the lighting or does the cap and bed look to be a different shade of silver compared to the cab?

 

I am not sure.. its not mine. @EatSleepTacos posted the TW for sale thread a few posts up

 

Too bad it is way across the country (and more than I am sure you are willing to spend).

That thing sure is pretty! I'd love a newer top, but can't really justify it when I know I can get cheaper ones on CL if I wait.

 

So you can save up for a lift and bigger tires right??

 

I already bought bigger tires and am gonna pull the trigger on a lift today

 

Oh damn! What lift are you going with?

 

Just going with the same setup as my last truck. 5100s, OME 884s, 2" AAL. For all that, strut assembly and shipping its $670 through Wheelers Off-road!

 

Are the 884's enough for a full 3" with plate bumper on a DC?

 

whatcha ordering Icons? Dakars?
