    For a Tundra, I'd want a 3rd Gen access cab long bed SR5 4x4 with TRD package. I am not too picky about color, though red would be nice!

    Means not to much interior wear and minimal maintenance to keep it going.

    Well you said you had two girlfriends in there so maybe that tear is from doing you business. Bench seats are really good for that

    Long beds suck honestly. If the access cabs, and regular cabs came with a 5" bed, they'd look 200% better.

    Some drunk asshole took a piss just steps away from my truck, in the parking lot at work. The truck was running because it's freezing and I have the heater on, and I was just relaxing and listening to Christmas music. I cracked up...

    About 3 months or so. She only weights 15 lbs so she doesnt eat much. I cant imagine having to spend that for a big dog that eats alot.

    My grandma's house was built in 1957. She and my late grandpa bought it in 1975, and installed central air in 1987.

    This Rheem Classic X air-conditioner provided almost 30 years of trouble-free service, and then it developed a freon leak in about 2016. My Grandma had it charged and it worked fine for the rest of the summer. In 2017, it had to be charged again, but it again worked just fine when charged.

    This year, it was blowing warm again, and the tech could not get it to hold a charge. It was deemed to be "completely shot" and my Grandma made due with window units this summer because she didn't feel like dropping $6,000 on a new system right away; It gets replaced next year.

    If a house that clearly has central air has a window A/C unit, then you know something is wrong...

    Yes very legal. I have been riding vintage Vespas and Lambrettas for 30+ years. Granted, in the US you don't often see them on the freeway. But we are out there. All over the UK you will see scooterist traveling to rallies throughout the summer months from the north of Scotland to the south of England. Some traveling a 1000 miles round trip. The vintage scooter culture in the UK is well documented. There are some great documentaries on the subject. See youtube if your interested. Over here, a wee bit less so. There are scooter rallies here in the states and there are many "hardcore" enthusiasts certainly in the vintage crowd. Google Scooter cannonball run. Though you are more likely to see the occasional hauler/carrier at rallies here. I have a 57 Allstate 200cc Vespa with mallosi 210, hp4 flywheel, vortex carb etc. It flys! I've traveled down to. Boston, NYC, RI many times it's funny to see folks reaction being passed on the freeway by an old Vespa!

    Had a Grom. Ohio. NOT legal on the highway. This is not fact but I don’t believe speed is the determining factor for legality. DOT doesn’t want you to die so small vehicles may not be legal depending on the states laws. 55 is a speed limit. You can drive down the highway slower if you want. (Although I believe some states have made minimum speeds a law).
