DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

this looks like it came straight out of the 80s!^^^^^^

 

So i dont live on my phone like the rest of the world, excuse me for actually going out side and doing something!

 

Yeah that tells me not to let you borrow anything now....

 

He wreaked it and they put it out there as a cover up

 

You're excused

 

Man the back of the truck was pretty messed up, like he was rear ended so i dont know why you need to cover that up. Maybe stolen??? There were no licence plates...

 

So when are you going to quit bullshitting and come out to one of these meets? Weather is starting to turn nice so you can not use that excuse.

 

I'm not gonna say cause I wanna surprise you fuckers

 

Come to this one and buy the
<<<< new guy

And yet you have time to post of tacomaworld a million times a day

 

You dont wanna say because you dont wanna catch shit for not coming to the meet!

 

Bro, its only when i am at work.. If you go back and check my posts you will see that they are almost always within a certain time frame, average i would say its about 8 hours wide.

 

Me catch shit? No way!

yep 770
This is the stock tune vs a mazda tune. the 3rd gen stock ignition tune is shit.

 

How did you guys learn/pick up on all of this?

Let's assume I know nothing about working on vehicles of any kind (it's safer for everyone that way). Other than a trade school or being raised around it, what's the best way to learn the ins-and-outs?

My gramps opened a diesel garage in Iowa after WWII, my dad never had any interest in it/went to college for business management, and I ended up growing up around the construction business that my dad owned/operated for 35 years (that he started in grad school). We are self made men as many generations back as I can remember, and I take pride in earning my skills and knowledge.

Long story short, I've always wanted to work on my own vehicles but never had the know-how. I'm not looking for a "quick fix", but rather the most effective ways you guys obtained the knowledge and skill you have today. I'm math/science oriented, good with my hands, and a stickler for detail. Any helpful tips are much appreciated!

I bought my Tacoma to learn and spend time with it.

I could build a bad ass wooden bumper, but that doesn't do anyone any good

 

I was waiting for this.

I guess it helps having a driveway and the necessary tools/funding, too. Not saying you do or don't, just saying we barely scrape by in our current situation
