    So I have had my alignment done 3-4 times since I bought the truck in February. Never had to do it besides when I had a lift installed on my ford. Ford had 50k when I got rid of it, this taco has 12k.

    What might be causing this? Was my aftermarket suspension saving my alignment on the Ford? Are the Taco parts soft as baby shit? Not looking to bash my taco because I really like it, just wondering what I can do to avoid it.

    That said, the dealer has realigned for free every time.

    An alignment every three to four thousand miles is a problem.

    Your dealer should be making track of what changes has to keep being made.

    Either something is coming loose, or failing.

    That is just bad troubleshooting on their part

    Agree! Someone is messing up somewhere.

    Panel's wired and closed up! I just need to finish running two lines (the heavier gauge ones that are just kind of hanging there). And also hope that nothing bad happens when I turn the breaker on in the main panel!

    Boy that 2 gauge service entry wire was a bear to work with!

    They should be able to just look at the pre/post alignment data and see exactly what needs to be changed every time...Like Camber -3.4 to +2.1

    Morning all!
    Had a great trip this weekend. Had great weather the entire time, except for some thundershowers on Monday evening. And those were cool too, since we could see the lightning strikes on all of the peaks around where we were camping.

    But, this morning I woke up with plugged sinuses, a headache, and had to go back to work...

    Sometimes you see shit out there that you just say WTF. RT3 this morning heading north. I snapped the photo when we hit traffic. However, a minute earlier she passed me in the high speed lane doing 70+....... look

    Driving on the South Shore is brutal (Assuming that's RT3 South which looks like it is). I grew up driving RT3 and it just sucks.

    It look like an omelette, maybe. Home fries and veggies I think. Lol.

    I bet she probably brushed her teeth and floss after, then did her make up before reaching her exit. That’s one efficient person.
