    That would be awesome!
    If no one else grabs it from @Sccafire before you head up, it would be greatly appreciated.
    We’ll see what happens this week

    Haha not bad so far but just lost a 10 mm nut for the thermostat inlet and cannot see it anywhere. So annoyed. Have to see if I have a spare somewhere. I just want this thing gone.

    When's the next big mod day? I need to not be doing this shit in the gravel. I hurt and I'm getting old.
    Going for u bolt flip and CMC and if I get the brackets made in all my spare time I will do shackle flip too. Then of course the normal shit with hammer and beat in the old pinchweld.

    Nice!
    I've got some bits showing up tomorrow that I'll be putting on soon. I may be too impatient to wait the weekend though.

    I’d take the nailers, I gotta meet with @tacomgee anyway so easy peasy.

    As long as he shows up to the paternity test, anyway.

    I also just want my project car up and running. Still working on that supercharger...

    Been over 3 months now so I’m pretty sure the gas in the tank is about to go bad.

    How many of you Nor Cal Taco people of a personalized plate with TACO on it? Just tried a couple of combination and got not available. Tried TACO TRD and TRD TACO and a couple of other no luck. Don’t know if they are all take or if DMV censors are at work.

    Fresh back from a car camping trip to Pinecrest with some family friends.

    A few observations/experiences:

    Dispersed camping RUINS car camping. Our fire pit, their tent :mad:

    24CEDEF4-F2A4-447C-B8B7-4718666369EA.jpg





    If you wanna go night fishing, don’t drink margaritas all day. I thought I had a big one, but literally reeled in a sailboat (on 4lb test) :rofl::rofl::rofl:




    Saw @TK7692 rig driving by the Cold Springs gas station Friday night. Didn’t realize a rig was down, glad y’all got it worked out :thumbsup:



    Also, my kids are always the dirtiest ones in camp, I love it! ;)

    Some really cool shit
    Seems like camping anywhere in California that is any kind of a park is overrun by humanity. Utica was like downtown SF. Insane amount of people there. Same with Lake Alpine. Last week end at Ice House was like a zoo, as well.

    Not an overbrander.
    Thanks for the tag, Bret. Everything worked out for us. And yes, I agree; dispersed camping > car camping.

    Finally got around to installing all of my vinyl today. I did a hood decal to cover up some paint peeling and some custom SR5 bedside decals. The hood decal came out like shit, but I’m really liking the bedside decals.

    Lame. Dispersed camping is usually not allowed in or around developed campgrounds.
