    I didn't even believe this was fully possible. I have a friend in taxes (Ryan you met Cyla) who keeps telling me to GTFO or get a real deduction at least buy a house or something. The rape is real.

    Yeah I can see how not having any deductions and getting raise means you get jack shit.

    I have a condo and two kids so that helps.

    Even if you wanted to buy a place you need money to do that.
    Get a raise so you can save for a house.
    Cant save for a house because .gov steals your raise.

    Big old fuck you.

    Yup, been talking to my friend that moved to Post Falls, ID a few years ago and it's looking so much more appealing than here. Just have to figure out my career situation because my current one is so heavily anchored to LA (and cities like it).

    Anyway back on topic, sort of...hit up Rowher today to test out my Dakars and brakes after fucking with them for the past few weeks. Couldn't figure out a clunk I've had since putting the AALs in but turned out to be over-torqued clamps on the springs (go figure). Loosening them a few turns on both sides solved it entirely.

    There are probably places to wheel. I haven't done any research on it though.

    I did tell the wife if we move the Tacoma has to come with us.

    What did you end up torquing the ubolts to?

    90 ft lbs for the u-bolts, 67 ft lbs on the front hangars and 117 ft lbs on the shackles.

    I've read the 2nd gens have an unclear u-bolt torque spec, doesn't the FSM for you guys say 37 ft lbs or something like that?

    Why do you hurt me?

    That's when I leave to go grab the rest of my shit. =(

    It's a 2-3 year stint out here for work. The irony is not lost on me. I have a Form 1 stamp on my SBR and all types of fun shit that would make Feinstien die of a coronary. Wheeling and camping is my only consolation while my other stuff lives in a safe a few states over.

    Seen the talk 'bout the Mojave? Soon you'll be able to camp next to fat Inbred Empire types on concrete slabs in RV parks and nowhere else.

    That is until they ban those, too. 'Cause "nature" yknow?

    Think it was around 1030 when we drove by Holcomb, bunch of idiot Jeepers blocking the main road...absolutely no reason they couldn’t have pulled to the side to allow people thru. They eventually did but it was annoying. It was 330 when we rolled thru Fawnskin.

    Ya the motorcycles were out in force. There was some kind of rally going on we saw a checkpoint in Big Pine Flats. I got more than one dirty look from them on the trail at times but it seemed I always met them in a curve and well...I may have been over the speed limit. ;)

    Help a brother out.

    Need more street cred. What's going to withstand the potholes on the 5 fwy, curb rash, and the occasional miss-balanced tire.

    Looking to raise my mall status to the next level

    Another highlight from Yesterday was watching @tetten run out of talent on Holcomb.
