    What a beautiful morning! Too bad most of the snow disappeared and all we are left with on our roads are ice! What a crappy second half of the weekend.

    Black wheels: IMO Are starting to go out of style a little and the gunmetal and bronze seems to be picking up. I wouldn't call it a fad though as the black out look has been popular for years. I think the other styles are picking up in popularity since people don't all want to look the same. I have the old trd wheels with the silver outline around the black and I think breaking it up a little helps vs. an all black wheel (I've had a few of those in the last few years). I have the gunmetal trd 4runner wheels on the wifes 4runner, and she would never let me black it out, only wants gunmetal accents if I do anything to the badges etc... Older people never liked the all black wheels because they see them as shitboxes like the above poster, and they were when they were younger. As a "younger" guy, I think chrome is cheap looking and signifies you are covering up a shit box. Unless it's factory chrome from a caddy or lexus etc....

    Yeah, that doesn't seem like it's relay-related. Or the switch, actually. Definitely something weird going on with one of the modules. Which sucks.

    Had a scare this am. Been working a bunch of ot and I think I am just finishing with the flu. Well went to work at 8pm last night and half way thru the job I passed out, my partner said he looked over at me and my eyes rolled and closed and down I went. I was in the pit of an elev and bounced off a bunch of steel, only to come to a stop in a pool of oil (we were changing the packing). He said i was down for about 30 seconds before starting to come out of it. Time for some rest and relaxation.

    I'm with Rebecca on this one. Your body is telling you something and at times like this you need to listen to it.

    I want the gunmetal FJ/t4r 8 hole wheels. Black looks good,but imo those are some of the best looking OE Toyota wheels.

    My stockers are pretty pitted and beat. Time to replace them soon, or keep them with my bfgs and get a more tame tire for commuting with some new(ish) wheels

    Yeah, definitely not dangerous working in an elevator shaft or anything. I'd push it too. -SARCASM-

    Morning everyone! I made the Great Meredith Rotary fishing derby board for the weekend! My 1.6lb yellow perch finished in 5th place for Sunday. It's always nice to win money for fishing, but the best thing is my fish was 1/100th of a lb bigger than my buddy's fish, and he got bounced off the board in the final 5 minutes! So for the 2nd time in my life I finished a fish on the board in the largest fishing tournament East of the Mississippi. It may not seem like much but it's a big deal for me!
