MARYLAND TACOMAS

I have to find the people who designed the 4.0 in my taco and thank them; easiest oil change ever! As you guys know by now: no jacks, no tire removal, no special tools, no plastic covers to be removed. I love it!

 

Even better with a fumoto valve! No tools required!

 

This is the second time I've seen this recommendation...I gotta look into this, oil change forthcoming!

 

Those valves scare me. Always feared they could get snagged on something offroad and broken off. Maybe i'm over thinking it like I do with most things lol.

 

I have one on all our cars. Well worth it. Though I will say I wouldn’t use one on a tacoma if you off-road, unless you have a proper skid plate.

 

I can not trust a valve down there because of different reasons; off roading, run over people, jump in the sand, rock crawling, and river crossing. I don't do none of those things but just in case

 

I don’t need to worry because I’ve got reinforced mobtown beef under there shameless plug

 

Am I the only one who is questioning the “run over people “ part of that shit ?!?..

 

This just means you’re next to get ran over. Anyone who questions him gets put on the hit list.

 

Never know when you may have to get through a bunch of jackass protestors blocking traffic solving absolutely nothing. Just sayin though...…..

 

I just had the power on my fingers to write what most of you guys think everyday in the morning and when going home after work. Bryan, if you lived/work in Baltimore you would understand

 

Neither do i, still, i will never put a switch on an internal combustion engine to compluetly starve it of all its life blood in seconds.

My ass will not ever fit that seat. Glad there are people out there that are made happy by it, but its not for me.

 

I had a stick come up and smash the fuel petcock on my motorcycle while trail riding once. Who is to say the same thing couldn’t happen to that valve on the bottom of your oil pan? <3

I hope that never happens to anyone! Ever! But I also won’t be retiring my 14mm to add myself into the fray lol

 

Well I will be there tomorrow downtown at Hopkins

 

@Mobtown Offroad made, locomotive style cow-catcher.

 

Have fun with the traffic! If I see you I wont run you over, you are a gentlemen and scholar

 

I’ll be in my daughters Ford Fiesta so please run me over,4runner is down for a while.

 

I understand your pain.

I think i’d rather be run over than to be seen in a Ford


<3

 

Obviously anything is possible, but it’s all about accepted risk. The hole on the bottom of the skid is maybe 3” diameter, and the fumoto valve is maybe 3” above that hole. Chances are realllll slim. Plus it’s not like I’m driving through a field of sticks, generally on fairly maintained trails.
