    Thank you. So many little scratches still but I don't feel like taking the time to get them out since it'll just get messed up again next time I'm on a trail.

    Wear protection or before you know it there'll probably be a little 2nd gen running around.

    I wish my Taco would quit breaking for a liitle while. Damn it's be trouble free for the last 120k I've owned. Just maintenance. Rebuilt front end, tbelt, radiator, and rear axle bearings. In the last 4 weeks the battery, starter, alternator and replaced fuel pump just because of mileage. Now this:

    Also right front wheel bearing is starting to make noise. The Taco planned my weekend for me. Wheel bearings will be here tomorrow.
    GEEEEEZZzz enough already.:annoyed::spending:

    I use the 'Power circuit'. It only has power when the key is in the ACC/IGN positions, I tap in right there, so I can take advantage of the 'Power' fuse.

    I need to do my fronts soon too. Do they press into the hub? I’ve never seen anyone post about the process of replacing them.

    Since I had to throughly go over some of the rules/laws for work recently... after along talk with the IL State Police, the IL Secertary of State Office and my company's lawyers... If the vehicle is legal in the state the vehicle is registered in, then it is legal anywhere in the US. This is Federal Law. For commercial vehicles additional laws may apply. It can get a little confusing if the driver is licensed in a different state but that doesn't change weather the vehicle is legal.

    What's weird about California is that all pickup trucks must be registered as a Commercial Vehicle, it actually says 'COML' on my Registration and Title.

    Cali has some weird laws regarding automobiles... you know it's illegal to have 'Auxiliary, Off-Road Lights' attached to your vehicle uncovered? A LEO can totally issue me a ticket for having exposed fog lights.

    Yeah WA techincally makes you do that too unless they're driving beam. Although unless the cop has a hard on for ya they won't cite you for it. Every time I've been pulled over they tell me I am missing my front plate, but never actually put it in writing haha
