    I want to get one of the portable fridges. I've got a RTIC 65 that I got last year during one of their many sales. It works great. That Amazon branded cooler is a decent price for a 45, be great for day or overnight trips. They are all fairly equal in performance any more.

    Oh really? Even an Amazon one now? No way, boy have things changed or grown, in the Rv world Norcold Engel is what you liker for durability and reliability. Or I should say IN THE PAST, that's all you kinda had available. No market back then for the cheaper knock off stuff. Then going camping became trendy (all the normal people still camped, I mean like the glamping stuff lol:D) and now all this awesome way cheaper stuff man. How do you like that RTIC 65?

    Been really happy with it. It's huge for what I need but works great, keeps shit cold long enough for me so far and takes a beating since it's one of the roto-molded ones.

    Dude, that just gave me an idea. Open something like that but I can be on site, and charge more, to help DIY'ers if they wanna pay to have an experienced hand around while they DIY and learn! Dude I could be so passionate for that!!



    I'm being serious man

    what is their hourly rate?
    the DIY lift here is about $40 an hour
    which is kinda high for me since i move slow as molasses :(
    i moved it as fast as i could and it still cost me like $70 to put on the lower fuel shield after i had it powdercoated + plus a few little peeking around at the fuel filter

    Okay I definitely see the difference lolol I thought it might be the pic and not truck just by looking at red in Toyota logo sign in the building. It looked a little off red too. But that pic just confirmed. And I like the red one a lot more too. :D Though that orange would kick ass with a bunch of black accents like front and rear bars, black softopper(with the sides and back rolled up:Dyou know me:rofl:) and some meats under it. :D
    That red would look good too. You see that pic I got of an eon blue copycat here where I live? Looked likt it was built right:cool:

    We offer a Mechanic Assisted rate of $50/hour.
    This is perfect for those who need any extra pair of hands or want to
    learn how to work on their vehicle.

    not too bad, i think that rate is less than the one here locally, not sure i trust the mechanic on duty to know the old Toyota inside and out, however
    he did like my truck a lot since he had to drive it into the shop

    Don't see a whole lot of any 70 series Cruiser in the states! Very cool. Tells me he appreciates the most reliable and most durable mass produced 4x4 the world will ever know:cool:
