MARYLAND TACOMAS

Like i mentioned Joe did the frame rust repair on my stock taco and he did a hell of a job. If I had before & after pics on my phone I would post'em.

 

Keeping that in mind. Not sure how this is all gonna play out yet.

 

All of this talk of sliders and it's making me want one.

Almost anywhere you go in this forum while searching up "best steps", and you'll see someone chime in saying GET SLIDERS.

I use my Taco for a lot of needs, but absolutely none of them are off-road fun. That being said, it's nice to have a feeling of security when parking in a busy lot, having it attached to the frame instead of the body... etc... even better to know @Mobtown Offroad is actually local AND can install it for my lazy "transit mechanic" a**.

What do you guys think about getting it line-x'ed? Over the top? I'm not the type to want to keep going down under to retouch for minor rust issues. I already did that last week for my 2014 frame.

 

I had all pro sliders on my last truck that were line-x'd. I wasn't a fan at all, but I got a good deal on them used so I went for it. Wouldn't recommend it at all, and would just rattle can them. You'll maybe have to touch them up once a year from regular driving.

 

Wow $8.50 an hour? Great rates.

 

Let's face it after his taxes health care and business expenses 8.50 a hour might be close to reality.I know as a new business owner gross income looks great ,not so much after all the BS

 

Why you gotta ruin it.

 

Anyone going too the Air Show at Andrews AFB this weekend?

 

$85 an hour is cheap as far as i'm concerned. My shop charges $115 an hour and we're slammed every day of the week.

 

Picked my RTT from the ups freight facility in Elkridge. Talk about confusing! Some random dude in a forklift helped me out.

 

Was gonna go with my dad until I learned it was this weekend. That said I'm now on my way to pawpaw West Virginia to go wheeling, shooting, and camping all weekend.

 

My buddy works for Witts End, he said $130 an hour. Love their work but goddamn. Though a certain someone just had a prinsu rack installed by them I believe......

 

That was mine. They did my cab mount chop and installed my snorkel a while back too. They do amazing work and they're only a few minutes down the road. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone in the area.

 

What time is the show?

 

Would really like to go, but.... work.

I do admit, it was cool seeing them fly by really close to my work garage for the past two days.

 

Show opens at 0800 each day
(They don't usually enforce the 0900 time frame)

 

damn. its a shame ive got a rallycross event both days this weekend, otherwise i would have totally made it out to that.

 

Your near me. I'm in Great Cacapon off of 9

 

Did you get any feedback from anyone on pictures from last weekend?

 

What's y'alls favorite spot for an exceptional steak in MD?

No duh, your backyard on a grill.

.....But as far as me taking a friend out!

Got my K&N air filter and cleaning kit from Amazon today.
Looks like I'll have a nice time swapping that out and changing my oil over my work weekend.
