What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

That's where 4mpg gone lmao my front bumper and winch.

 

Shipping is about $7

 

I had the same setup on my trip to mammoth in the bed minus the Kayaks but I have an RTT...was at 500lbs+ easy. Water and gas cans when full add a lot of weight. That was when I learned I needed to beef up my leafs with AALs, I was nearly on my bump stops the whole time.

 

A big give and take, just as anything in life.

Hard to find a fun car that gets good gas mileage, that's dependable that's cheap. You can only pick 3 if not only 2

 

Definitely, and sometimes add in things like firewood, chain saw and stuff like that. It adds up so quick lol

 

I just took a look at your Supra build, that sounds like a totally fun DD - but I also can't imagine that gets good gas mileage either.

 

Clock is free, Just pay for shipping.

 

Why im thinking of keeping a spare set of LBJ + tools when wheeling.

 

Better than the truck. So far the worst I've gotten is 22 mpg city and I was driving like an ass every other day haha. Only thing is it isn't a cheap car to fix usually. But haven't had the issues yet. It's pretty fun, decent MPG and so far it's reliable

 

I do, you never know

 

Thanks for the offer, but buckmaster243 beat you to it. If I would have known there would be this many people with spare clocks lying around I would have asked a long time ago. Mine quite working over 10 years ago. Have just been using a stick on clock since then.

 

Traded her in... Been a good almost exactly 10 years

 

What'd you get to replace it?

 

2015 Golf TDi. 80+ mile round trip commute everyday is a lot nicer when you're getting over 40mpg compared to 17 lol

 

Jobs are a dime a dozen. I bet if you would have looked you could have found one a lot closer to home, and then been able to keep your Taco.

 

so ... b4 I attempt this again... will the rear cross support come out by rotating it or just not enough clearance? It’s got 1/2” on each side towards the frame rails. I’m a bit OCD. Grinding/wire wheel day on the frame.

 

jobs are, careers aren't

Bed is rusted out, frame is close, something up front pops every time I turn slowly, both CV boots have been torn for awhile, valve cover gasket leaking, ac broken... I could either put thousands into it and get it back to decent condition, or put that money towards something new.

 

Naa, you're just being picky. I bet you are qualified for all kinds of other jobs.

The only thing you listed that's really a problem is a rusted frame. If the frame is toast, then you have a problem. But a Golf!

 

Don't be jealous of my dirty redhead
