    Haha that’s what made me post! We just finished the last episode too. What a crazy plot but it’s so good so far.

    Yup. I look forward to it every week. It’s literally the only show I watch on tv unless it’s a sporting event. My kids take over the tv 99% of the time.

    Dobinsons suspension
    We have been running Dobinsons on both the Tacoma and 4runner of close to 3 years. I can't remember the details of what coils and springs I got are. The rear springs have a constant load rating of (if remember correctly) close to 600# before it drops 1". I can say I have had over 1200# in the bed several times and same much as 1400#one time. It handled the weight without a problem. Rode better than any luxury car that I've rode in. The front coils, I should have gotten a long coil. The spring rate feels good, I just like to have less of a rake. I've have somewhere around 90,000+ miles on the setup, and have had zero issues. Drive it at lease 5 days a week with between 450#-600# in the bed and about 200# in the access cab area.

    As for the 4runner, I don't get to drive it much. But when I do, it ride smooth and the handling is super responsive.

    Overall we have been happy with Dobinsons suspension, and plan to do it on my next truck. When I find the right one.

    Another positive feedback on Dobinsons, thanks Jeff! From what I gather, most folks have been really happy with their Dobinsons suspension. This just solidifies my decision even more!

    Dobinsons suspension

    I have worn out 2 sets of Toyotas rear springs, and broken 3 sets of shopper springs before I switched to Dobinsons suspension. Have you ever heard the saying; "load the wagon, and do t worry about the mule"? I have loaded the crap out of my truck and these rears springs have held everything I should have not put in the bed.

    Huntsville is booming. I have been recruited twice in 1 year. I'm close to doubling my engineering salary in 10 months. Even my boss just looked at me and said yeah I'd leave for that kind of money too.

    Only the best.
    Whats the amp hour rating on that. Can you run a laptop and projector off it for 8+ hours? Will it charge cell phones, tablets, cameras, laptops all at the same time several times each before needing recharged? Will it run a truck fridge for a few days at a time? Thats the big difference about these 2. Its actually a small generator, but instead of filling it with gas every so often you have to recharge it.

    But it would be badass if it had jumper cables lol.
