PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

My coworker's new 2018 DCLB TRD Sport 4x4!




Factory JBL stereo!

 

Does that come with the tech package?

 

Out of your taco friends group, who has the beefiest taco?

 

Do you have any Jordan Retros? I would buy some, but my feet are size 8.5 and I have really skinny legs.

 

Yup!

 

I wish the TRD Off Road also came equipped with a scoop.

 

11 on me and my Jordan collection has never touched pavement.

 

There’s way to many lol

 

Are they Deadstock? My favorite Jordan shoe is the Black Cat 4

 

If it was my truck and I had no insurance and did all the work myself, already paid for, paying only for aftermarket parts and needed it to go to work, i'd prob fix it. Otherwise... hell no!

 

The bed looks like its toast and one of the pictures is screaming frame damage

 

I only collect the original runs so I have from one to whatever at this point. My dad started my collection back in 1986 when I was born. He is a size 11 so he assumed I would be too. My favorite are the 3’s and the Barcelona dream team ones. I have a few of the reruns in different colors that I wear but that’s when I wear sneakers lol.

 

The dream team ones where the hardest for me to get. I found an untouched pair in a trip to Malaysia. It was the luckiest find for me. I also have a bunch of air max 95 color ways that I wear on a regular bases.

 

Untrue!!!

I'm am an adjuster who fights tooth and nail for my clients against these Mudduq insurance companies like Allstate, Geiko, GoAuto and ESPECIALLY!!!!!! AARP They . . . . . . . . . . Will F* you! It's sad that they prey on our heroes

F* AARP, if you have insurance with them, I have 2 things to say....

#1 I deeply appreciate your service with all of my heart!

#2 They will F* you and especially anyone you are involved in an accident.

Anyway, this is what those Mudduq companies do to save money. They 'total loss' cars! They apply depreciation before damages and do not include updates. So if you have a Toyota Tacoma TRD Offroad Ed. They value it at a same year model base. And only accept estimates from their local shops who inflate repair costs!!!!



So, if you have a 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Limited Ed., brand new, and you installed a $20,000 lift kit and $3,000 wheels and 2,000 tires, but some idiots put 10 door dings in your truck... your kid spilled juice on a seat, after work you didn't check your boots, got grease on the carpet.... etc

They estimate as follows...

Price of the truck, $40,000

Fix door dings, seats, carpet = new paint job, new seats, new carpet, subtract $10,000

It's now a used truck, subtract $8,000

So, starting value of a $40,000 brand new truck, which the owner has approx. $65,000 invested, is now... $22,000.

It only takes about on average, 70% to total a vehicle.

$15,400 will total your vehicle.

And they WILL do it if you let them! Most people NEVER CALL THEIR OWN INSURANCE AGENT and ask for help!!!! They argue for months and give up


Other end of the spectrum, a smart neighbor didn't accept the AARP total offer of $7,000 for his 2006 Tacoma with 3" lift, $3,000 tires and rims, $3,000 stereo, etc.... Trade In Book value $9,000.

Filed with his insurance, state farm, got $19,000 (this was last year) and state farm sued those assholes at AARP for the difference!!!!

Does that give perspective?

You can't look at it like insurance companies do not want to total loss a car because it costs them more money! You have to look at what company you are dealing with! Mudduq companies WANT to depreciate and total loss the vehicle low, it costs less!

Honest insurance companies pay what is owed.

 

I mostly like the bandwagon retros: Gamma Blue 11, Concord 11, Bred 4, Bred 11, ETC.

 

I would have a nice shoe collection, If I weren't 5'5 and weighed 105 pounds (not exaggerating). I mostly wear thin shoes like Nike Free Flyknit and I wear some Vans style Polo shoes.

 

I do play baseball, and I have some nice gloves, bats, and some MLB caps.

 

I collect hats too lol

 

This is true.

They write the estimate if it is at 50% of value it throws a red flag on most estimating applications CCC, Mitchel, etc..

They add 5-10% for supplemental repairs if its over 65-70% value at that point it will most likely be totaled.

Just by the looks of that vehicle there are at least 10% supplemental damages on it.

For a toyota it most likely is less than 70% as auction values are high at least here in Hawaii they are.

 

Overslept by about an hour and a half and woke up to my boss blowing up my phone. Told her I could make it in by 1:30, took the Taco through the car wash because I'm showing it at an autism benefit car show, and still made it it with like 2 minutes to spare!
