    I've been good. Busy with a qualification at work, which kind of took over my life the past couple weeks, but thats done now. I'll PM you my email address now.

    And I've barely touched the Jack. We have so much alcohol left over from the wedding that I've kinda just been switching back and forth between several different whiskeys.

    John,
    They are sharper than they've ever been. Nice choice, if it works for him.
    He could save on gas money as long as he never wants to go off road, and if it can fit everyone in there.

    I have your physical address, so if you haven't seen my Lexus yet then I am doing the stalking thing correctly.

    No, I'm pretty sure I stated email addresses. :rofl:

    By the way, Tyler sent his ASAP. Of course he's not a big time movie star yet.

    Thats good to hear! I'm glad you're enjoying it!

    @08TRDOFFROAD Buy a 4R. I know of a blue 17 with some mods and minor scratches. I swear its never ever been offroad in the history of ever.

    My next vehicle will definitely maybe be an Acura RDX, or a BMW X3, or maybe an Audi A5. Although if I were to buy an overpriced unreliable vehicle it would be a Range Rover Evoque or its twin in a Jaguar E-Pace.

    i'd say trade the truck in. I thought the same lately since my gf Honda Fit don't even have 60k miles and is more family friendly, and the Taco may worth more (if I don't get trough it before) in trade in value for another vehicle. T4R or Tahoe are great choice imo. Don't know much about the Tahoe, but maybe 4R is more reliable in the long run? Here we also all like Toyota's, so most will lean on the 4R side haha

    If you want to keep the truck you can also consider a cap to get more dry storage. When its going to be time to trade the access cab i'll look seriously into DCLB, with a cap. Life with a cap is awesome

    My hi lift base didn’t fit in the safe jack system, so I made it fit. Cut up the base and welded it to a new, 1/4” thick base thanks to @Skierrichy. Did a few passes and blended it together a bit. Gonna paint it tomorrow!

    Ok, I'll bite, what is it and what does it do?

    Edit, never mind, somehow I missed the description at the top of the pics. Duh. Blonde moment.

    Yeah the 2nd and 3rd pics are on my tailgate! It’s got the smooth mobtown reinforcement plate and the outer steel cap (two separate pieces). Really makes it feel stout.

    Ha! We all have blonde moments. This is the system I was making it fit in. Check out the video in that page.

    Well shit that guy that paints the scenery in the low monotone voice gives it a thumbs up so I am sold!!!

    Actually that's pretty bad ass. I gotta learn how to weld some day. I'm sure I would suck at it but I will never know if I never try.

    Another quality #RandyFab project.
