    My cousin and her husband live in the Wilkes-Barre area and an F2 tornado hit about a mile from their house a couple weeks ago!

    This is what's left of the local Barnes & Noble bookstore...

    if you need the radio code still, i can get it for you. turn the radio off, press and hold the presets 1 and 6, turn the power to radio on while holding them. should give you a 8 digit serial number. thats what i need to get the radio code. im a honda tech, so i have access, lol.

    Turns out that all Hondas without navigation have 5-digit codes!

    The point is that now I've got the radio working and I've retained the code in my files for future use in case this happens again!

    Justin actually offered the truck to me for $4,000 when it still had the "Swiss Cheese" frame, back before Toyota decided to reinstate the recall...

    If I didn't have my Taco, I'd have bought it! If I did buy it I'd give it the same ToyWerx grill but in white, black powder-coated 16-inch rims, a ground-pounding stereo system, and the complete WeatherTech deflector package...

    And that's just for starters!

    The biggest thing wrong with this particular truck that I'm aware of (now that the frame is replaced) is that the blower motor is bad and when you turn on the A/C or the heat, nothing happens...

    That's not a difficult fix though really.
