Prinsu Style Roof Rack for 2005-2018 Tacoma,

Price: $ 600

 

I'm looking to get straight street tires. Suggestions?

 

Why does he know exactly how and what to fix, but can not do the simple, simple thing. Just lower the price instead.

 

That's @NeonHeights
It's not an actual prinsu its his own design and he's changed it even more and actually better now.

Reason for not selling complete is cost. Figure if you're paying for hardware and what not you will pay a mark up as business point it's time he needs to spend getting it etc and then charge if he's a smart business man.

Look at it this way if I'm doing a side job you think I'm not charging extra for the material I need to drive to the supplier to pick up to wire your house etc? It's gas, insurance, wear and tear on vehicle etc that business wise should be considered.
Difference is in buying at wholesale price so my mark up is still cheaper than what you'd be able to buy at home depot.

 

Yep putting the aux in was a fucking bitch. Really tight fit and close to coolant lines.

But hey this corrected the taco lean

 

An outsider, who just see's the ad. Looks at it how I did. Just sayin.

If I see an ad for something and it says 'perfect condition, mint. Just needs ..........' I lol at it and move on.

Just me though.

 

And switch back and forth? Eugene did that and said the same it makes you not want to go as much because of needing to switch back and forth.

But I know he'll say the same if you go Street tires Michelin ltx is the only way to go

 

Understandable.
Marketing could be worked on but it's a good idea to do.

Good way if he starts doing a lot of them is sell as complete or sell as diy kit where you buy the parts.

 

Gas prices hitting too hard?

Yep, LTX is the only answer for street truck tires. They actually did pretty well one time at Ardbeg too I remember!

I found compromise in Nokians that I ride now, great onroad and will take me everywhere off-road while being P-rated tires and giving me my 10L and soft ride

 

Yep Ardbeg rocks will love those P-rated sidewalls.

 

I'm waiting for first run to ardbeg or Minden when it cuts right into the side wall lmao

 

On that who wants to bet on Eugene getting a flat first run lmao

 

I believe I will be at Minden this year. Truck is capable of it now, wife said we should totally go to all the places we have not been yet

 

Minden is a little different as it's almost all single track so no bypasses. I honestly prefer Minden to ardbeg.

Only issue is the water

 

Im in

 

The water at Ardbeg early season last weekend was deep everywhere. The road in was crazy.

I had water touch the bottom of my sliders more than once while we wheeled around.

In this pic here we are standing on top of a double culvert section, there was so much water moving you could feel the ground vibrating.

 

Pfff, I will still get further than you all and just to show - this is E rated tire on a regular forest road:


Like I said, I don't plan on launching this truck like previous one, I'll take it slow and steady .

Let me know when you have water up to your cupholders , then you did some water crossing and not puddle crossing

 

Not the same.... That's a Toyo.....
