    That's 5 lug sure looks like a 6 lug to me. Are you calling a Prerunner a 5 lug?

    I don't think she will even notice. I thought you were standing next to a mirror. Great truck.

    If the numbers work they just work. Everyone is happy.

    I highly recommend a polymer sealant from Texas called Hydro Shine.... Damn that shit is good..... Snow just slides off my truck in winter and bugs don't stick as bad either....

    It's a great product.....!!

    By the way...nice truck/bike and dog !! Good lookin' ole lady too...!! Now you have everything, eh..?

    yeah. a bit devious. Absolutely worth it.
    I will also make her take part blame for leaving me behind. First time we ever went somewhere separately, but she had to go she is receiving an award for her service in chemistry. Did i mention she is smarter than me. So even if she is pissed she is going to be in a great mood. Its a win win for me.

    Thanks. I will get the polymer. I very much intend on keeping this on for the long haul.
    i actually am very fortunate and grateful. And to boot all my kids are employed. haha. If anyone out there has boys that were never really into school they will understand how big a deal this is.
