PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

I agree...

I just didn't feel like ruining the picture by blacking out the Rebel flag TRD logo...

I can black out the confederate flag license plates no problem, but the imagery with the flag intertwined, as well as the actual flags, are difficult. I've actually not taken pictures from certain angles because of the goddamn flag being in the background!

 

I don't have a problem with the rebel flag.

What specifically?

 

Should I just replace this interior panel?

 

Just past 11:30am...

 

Are you complaining of the heat?

 

Yes...

And the heat in itself is not bad. It's the fucking humidity! I've never lived in Texas, so cut me a break...

 

@ALI3N_123

Feels like a hundred degrees now!

 

The A/C at my friend's restaurant can't get it down to 70 due to the combination of the heat from the kitchen and the constant opening and closing of the front door...



However, 74 degrees is incredibly comfortable when it's in the 90s with a heat index of 100 degrees outside!

 

We're a semi cheapskate family, so we keep our thermostat at 75° during the summer.

 

We keep the upstairs thermostat at 68-70...

 

How do you feel about winter? You should come down here during late December, and early January. We're shivering to death in 45° weather while the winter texans are out and about in shorts.

 

Haha that’s like us. In January-February. 72 in the day time and 62 at night you see the tourist in shorts and T-shirt’s. You’ll see locals in jeans and hoodies. I don’t even like going in the water from November to March.

 

Shit I drive with the heat on when it gets below 70

 

45°F?!?!



That's warm by Pennsylvania winter standards! As in "roll one window down and turn on the heat " weather!

 

Same here, but only if I have windows down...

For me, windows down/heat on weather is 55-66 degrees...

 

I have to take a drug test and get a physical for this new detailing job, and I showed up at the company's doctor a bit early, so I'm sitting in the truck with the A/C going full throttle...




This is the current temperature and heat index in Doylestown...

 

That shift knob is tight yo.

 

I got it from a vendor here on TW, but I don't think he's active anymore...
