    That sucks!

    I'm just having a shitty morning...guest bathroom toilet randomly overflowed (glad I happened to notice it when feeding the cat) and then got pulled over on the way to work. Happy Tuesday!

    Thankfully I just got a warning...77 in a 65. I really didn't expect him to pull out behind me - The car in front of me was going the same speed as me. Oh well...at least I didn't get a ticket! I'm just telling myself he liked my 4Runner and wanted to get a closer look at it. :rofl:

    I saw him looking at my stickers - which I just put on this weekend. It made me wonder if those are going to draw the wrong kind of attention. lol

    Shhhhhhhhh

    :anonymous:

    He did bring up my tires - I played dumb...he was saying with after market tires that it can throw off your speedometer so then you don't know you are speeding. Yeah...that's what happened...I didn't know I was speeding....

    Based on the ticketed speed, I'd say mine is only off about 2 MPH. Not too bad!

    I just reused the factory braces. Had to cut and modify then to work but it's ready to do and way cheaper than buying the special brackets pelfrey sells.

    They have brackets they send with their hc rear bumpers but they sell them individually if you call or email them. Like 25 bucks for two small brackets .
