    You could feel the weight back there to get rolling but once at speed it handled extremely well. I think I averaged 12mpg going up. I did out the numbers and I wasn't overweight actually had 1100lbs to spare before maxing out gcwr

    No, mine either. But, living out of a seabag, and having vehicles broken into, stolen, shitbag roommates, blah blah blah....

    I'm not even sure exactly what I have anymore.

    Between SXM and Pandora... I'm good.

    That’s fucking awesome. I’ve never towed with my 17 Tacoma besides a small utility trailer for leaves. It handed well yes. But gas sucked haha

    Lol this was my first time towing :anonymous: 200miles into the mountains, 4th & 3rd we're good friends for 4 hours; also really convenient with the M/T to keep it were you want.

    Also it felt like I was shedding weighted vests each time I lost an item.

    I have about 1500 CDs now. 2 of them are originally from iTunes


    Dope DOD's first album
    Black Flag's double live album

    only because they weren't sold in a physical copy at the time (probably still aren't in the case of the Flag disc).

    Glad everything went well. My truck would’ve totally struggled because I have an automatic. I swear to God I get on the highway and this thing is so sluggish but I love the truck nonetheless

    There’s a super beat non-turbo with some awful FnF mods for under a grand in CT that’s calling my name.

    From what I remember from @crashnburn80 ‘s testing the Morimotos were the worst.

    FreeRip is what I use. The have a database to populate the ID3 tags as well as multiple output formats for the file.

    Bosch Toyota South online has decent pricing and let’s you pick up for a flat $6.95. You get stuck with sales tax but it’s under shipping charges most elsewhere. They were running a buy 3 get one tire sale so I did the whole truck there with good results.

    Price is right at least. I've long lusted after the first run of 300..I had a Datsun 280ZX as a kid.

    The Z31 did nothing for me honestly but it wasn’t my generation car though. I liked the early Z cars until they got fat and then the Z32.

    . I was looking on their site. I can pick it up at their store for 6.95 will call and not pay for shipping. But then they add $45 for sales tax so it’s almost the same amount of money if I buy it online :(. Didn’t know if anyone can give me a discount

    Yep. Check out the thread below, not only is the Morimoto beam half the height of KC with a narrower side angle projection, Morimoto is also second lowest in output compared to the competition while KC is one of the best. So if you think Morimotos are good, you'd really love KC.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/the-led-sae-j583-fog-pod-fog-light-review.554813/

    And for the amber Morimotos, I have those coming likely next week to compare to the amber KCs.

    Hey my 6 cylinders did just fine climbing those hills :luvya: I think technically I drove it more how it likes cause I was in the 3-3.5k range on the tach the whole ride which is the 3g powerband :facepalm:

    I like the Z32, I would just never work on one due to how the engine fits. God forbid its the TT cause that makes it even worse. When in doubt, LS Swap.

    Also I could probably never get over the fact that Top Gear calls it the "Pornographers Car"

    That's just it, the first 300 was basically the 280 in terms of appearance and I always wanted another one.

    This one worked great for me; faster than winamp and it recognized the Album titles and song titles which winamp also was not doing. Ripped about 40 discs last night directly to the flash drive (which winamp also wasn't doing, for some reason).
