    I jumped on your build thread to check out your truck after your advice on the Fox shocks. I was sad to hear about your truck, it looked great, but glad to hear you were not badly injured. I am excited to watch your progress and I am looking into some more info on the suspension setup you mentioned. I will follow along with your build. Thanks again for the advice on the suspension.

    Thanks man, welcome to TW. The build will be moving along rather quickly at first and then take a dramatic slow down and the BS will then pick up from there! Lol

    I love my Fox set up, but it all depends on what you’ll be using your truck for and how much you’re willing to spend. There are many great brands to choose from and plenty of options (Fox, Icon and King at the top of the list imo). What will you be using your truck for primarily?

    Not sure if the stripes are going to stay this time around, waiting on my Pro grille to see if I like it or not...

    Before you make an ass of yourself, the Raptor decal was made and designed by my cousin. It’s ok that you guys don’t like it and that you all cannot control yourself with all of your immature comments. However, this is one that I’d ask you to stay away from please. My cousin had a little baby girl that was born with a lot of health issues and therefore I offered to try and sell a decal to help in anyway I possibly can. It has actually brought in a lot of money for her and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve also donated a lot of my time in many ways to try and help my cousin with her families recent loss of their baby girl. It’s been a very long grieving process and a huge loss for my family. So I please ask that for once, you back off my case just a little. I really don’t try to affect anyone or stir up issues. I’m pretty easy to get along with and I usually go with the flow. I’m just on Tacoma World to learn new things and share what things I’ve done. As for your comment about my truck and the transmission issues, you have no idea what is going on with it so please just stop. The sad thing is, in the beginning I thought your group had some pretty respectable guys. I guess first impressions aren’t always long lasting. Sorry about your truck, but Good luck with your new build!

    Truely sorry for your family’s loss.

    We are a good group of guys just having fun bullshitting online that’s all. We like certain things and dislike others. Ignore is a useful tool.

    I just think I’ve taken it long enough. Having fun is one thing. I respect that and get it. I too like to have fun and I’m a pretty sarcastic person that enjoys a good time, but maybe you should think whether it’s fun for the other person too after so long. I haven’t decided to ignore any of you because I felt like god forbid there is something I might need to know from one of you in the future that could help me out. I guess I can start to use that if you cannot respect me asking this of you guys. It’s also not about having to tip toe around me because I’m sensitive and need a participation award for everything I’ve done in my life. I’ve worked damn hard to achieve everything in my life just like I’m sure you guys have as well. I’m not from the generation that gets everything handed to them. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if you guys would just back off a little of having your fun. Also, thank you. A loss is never easy. Losing an elderly person is one thing because at least you can say they lived a long and healthy life. Losing a baby that had such an amazing personally and was one of the happiest babies with all of her health issues is another. Makes it twice as hard. So again, Thank You!
