    I refinished my 2nd gen wheels. Never again. Those 4Runner wheels will sit until I save up the money.

    I don't mind as much since I am currently on my SR5 wheels - those 4Runner wheels are sitting in boxes and most likely will continue to wait for some time. Those god awful 2nd gens are waiting for a CL buyer.

    I shop around now. Sometimes I'll even give Amazon heads up on a better deal. I even chatted with them and said NO TAX + FREE SHIPPING. If I had to spell it out even more I'm just gonna cut the chat off before I get pissed.

    When your ready to do it, atleast pay to have them sandblasted. My paint job turned out fine. Its the corners and crevices where I couldnt get all the old finish off with the wire wheel that look bad. Most people dont notice, but it bothers me.

    I wont even chat with them online. I've been fortunate, no real issues with them other than the occasional missed prime delivery time frame. A simple quick call and they extend prime by a month and that's that.

    Dead in here, I'm assuming everyone went and traded their first jens in for a third jens. The labor days sales and all and newer jen smells better

    I'm hoping big time that by the 28th I can have it back. I'm running out of weather, by mid October it's likely to start getting too cold.

    Yes But mine has no original parts (seriously... by the time I’m done it’ll have new doors, new frame, new engine. Rebuilt trans, a bunch of 4Runner parts, some other random shit.)

    I was doing 2 more Job apps. Getting tired of doing them. Why on earth do they need to be so long for part time positions? Half the questions I'll end up answering again in the interview. They wonder why teens don't want to work...
