The Lair

On the rocks with salt preferred..

In the paint booth. Everything looks pretty good. Canoe pics to come...

 

It depends on my mood. If I'm really in the fiesta mood then traditional 3, 2, 1 with some good tequila, rocks, salt.

Then there are variations to this. Sometimes I'll add a half ounce floater of mezcal. I also like to mince up some habanero and add about a 8th a teaspoon. The cold tequila and hot peppers work. If I'm eating chipotle which I always douse with some sort of hot sauce (ghost pepper is my fav) then to offset the heat I use Quervo Silver and Quervo's own liquid mix, and the strawberry lime is good. I have a Vitamix and a Blendtech but I recommend the Blendtech because it has preprogrammed settings and makes the perfect frozen margarita. Imagine a slurpee but alcohol.

So yea, I like margaritas but I would have to say the 3,2,1 is my fav.

 

An alcohol slurpee sounds great! And you're way fancier than me when it comes to margaritas. I just put some ice, mix and tequila in a cup and stir that bad boy.

 

Well, next time get fancy. 3 oz of your favorite tequila. 2 oz of fresh lime juice. 1 oz of triple sec. Ice.

But this is what I use when I'm in a hurry

And they sell it on the cheap at Walmart where I buy it.

 

I'm more Gin

 

So since I'll be replacing the idler pulley soon I decided to do an experiment.

I downloaded a db app for Android and measure the engine noise level with the hood closed. I just aimed the phone at the lower part of the grille and this is the result. I would be very interested to see other results, especially Randy's since he recently replaced a pulley. #saturdaymorningthoughts

Theres a small cocktail bar in Rota, Spain that makes the arguably the best gin and tonic in the world. If you ever make it there you'll have to look it up.

 

I just bought Castrol Edge oil for the truck. On the bottle it says 0W-20 U.S. what does the US means? All other grade has no us written beside the grade...

 

I would assume it means winter in US standards. Not sure why that would be so specific in motor oil.

 

Thats what I think also. Kinda funny

 

I definitely still have a bum idler so I wouldn’t be a good baseline! @twheat40 would probably be better since his 4Runner has the same engine but he’s newer.

US probably stands for United States

 

I'm averaging 72 in my 4Runner, BUT you can definitely hear the flowmaster 44 over the engine, so I'm probably not a good baseline either.

 

Dang, did you drop what you’re doing to run outside and do that?! That was quick.

 

Kinda hard to drop nothing. Lol. I'm just sitting here watching shark week and playing with the dog, so I just threw her leash on and went outside.

 

I run 5w-30 in mine.

 

If you’re bored, you’re welcome to go to work in my place tonight

 

You know, I would, but.....







No.

 

FTFY

 

I got it back buddy. Caus I'm cool like that.

 

I'm ghetto though. I run Chevron brand available at Costco and buy it only when on coupon. A case will change the oil in both vehicles once.
