Got any Bilstein decals?

 

Comedian nice

 

I'll take that as a no.

 

No but I have a bunch of KING Stickers that came with these if you want some?

 

Actually I do but thought you were breaking the balls

 

Ah fuck it, I'll take em.












I can't even afford the cheapest King setup.

 

Why did you end up putting those beautiful Kings for sale?

 

Never sold them I still have them

 

Wish I had the money to pick them up. If you still have them in a couple years, I'll take them.

 

Now that's funny

 

57 degrees and rainy right now...

 

Cold, and rain is not a good mix.

That's some Swedish weather, were in AMERICA.

 

There is a guy out there with an 08 Tundra that put over 1 million miles on his truck too. His stopped at 999,999 as well. Toyota traded him even for a new truck though. The guy in NC has almost 300,000 more miles on his.

Yes I am,
About to hit 175k never left me stranded 8yrs and 130k done by me.
I get that a vehicle is a object but some things you would just hate to be without!
I spend more time in my truck than I do the wife!
I enjoy spending time tinkering on it and even my time doing jobs that suck!
It just got a new frame along with body mounts, rack and tie rods both inner and outter, lower intermediate shaft and rear billistien shocks.

If you don’t love it you don’t take care of it.
If you don’t take care of it you replace it!

 

Its a truck. I have no feelings whatsoever with it. I take care of it, I like driving it and I hope it lasts for a long time. But, if it gets totaled or something happens to it, oh well.

 

I get it. My Taco is new to me, but the 07 4runner which I refuse to sell has been the best vehicle I've ever owned. I've owned probably a dozen cars and none of them have made it over a hundred thousand. [Read as US based autos.] My 4Runner is the first Japanese vehicle I've ever owned and it has been there rain or shine snow sleet or hail. Currently at 131000 miles still runs like the day I bought it. It truly is an impressive machine.

 

i was totally attached till my wife said hey you should get a 4 runner...and that just what i got...never second guess the wife

 

Well, my Tacoma just reached the 300,000 mile mark and, like it or not I am 'attached' to it. We all get attached to inanimate objects in our lives. My wife and I built our house, if it were destroyed tears would be shed. I lost the hammer I framed our house with, I almost cried. Yes, I would 'mourn' over the Tacoma if it were totaled. It survived two deer collisions and a few other accidents. Sure, I would move on and get another truck, but I would definitely miss this one

 

I'm definitely attached to mine. As my neighbors can attest, I'm always outside doing SOMETHING to my truck. My neighbor to the left always says im going to wash the paint off my truck (jokingly - and I don't even wash it THAT much). I've customized it how I want it and made it mine and appreciate the work I've put in to it. With that said (as I learned after totaling my last Tacoma), all of that work can disappear in the blink of an eye, so that's always a perspective I keep in mind -- a YOLO mentality, if you will. In the relatively short time I'll have the truck, I want to enjoy it.
