    My last garage was also under the house and I had a difficult time fitting a Neon or a stock Jeep YJ into it. The Tacoma didn't stand a chance.

    I used a friends lift one time to do a tire rotation. It changes things....I want one so bad now. Especially with the tacoma vs the old mazda! Having a hi-lift and rock sliders might help a bit, that's a lot easier to work with for tire rotations.

    Sounds like you need a sledge hammer and a saw-zall and you have plenty of room for a lift :D All the room I need is just to get the truck unsprung. Beyond that, whatever, I am fine to slide under it and whatnot, it's the lifting part that's a PITA.

    My wife took a couple of the process. It's a pretty underwhelming process. Clean, clean, clean, clean, boil, throw some crap in the pot, boil some more, cool it down, throw in some more crap and wait for 2 weeks to find out if you did it all correctly. I'm a little skeptical, all the videos I watched said be careful of boilovers. I guess they're really common but I hardly had any foam on mine at all. I'll keep an eye on the air lock over the weekend, if I don't see any bubbles then I'll know I done messed up.

    And the end result, I got 5 gallons of something!

    Nah, you needed the space.

    My little 6 pound cat Pumpkin I had for about 20 years got a broken paw in about 2008..Cupcake dropped a jar off the counter and it landed right on her paw, had to be in a cast for 8 weeks.

    2 weeks in she calls me on my way to work all mad..Pumpkin walked on her chest and whacked her in the face with the cast!!!

    We bought them for my brother in laws bachelor party. The back says, “before I met her, I was a tyrannosaurus wreck” and at the bottom “dinosaur puns are pterrible”. That shirt doesn’t get worn in public, haha. And yes, i’m still rocking flannel pants at 5 in the evening.

    Hey All,
    So we are looking to get some no-touch thermometers. I think that they are going to require them at places with larger gatherings, and we want to be ahead of the curve and have them before they are all gone.

    I'm having one hell of a time finding a made in America one, hell, I'll accept ANYWHERE except China. Guess where everyone on Amazon and walmart etc... are made?

    Anyone got any ideas? Best I can see are super expensive spy thermal readers that aren't allowed out of the U.S. for security reasons :rolleyes:

    Thanks! :hattip:

    It sort of is, but lately I've had to dress a little nicer. The higher ups are trying to start a 'thing' where it's encourage to use your camera to make the meetings feel more personal. I held out for a while, but I'm slowly getting pressured into showing my bring, smiling face. So, I try not to wear pun shirts on the days I have client meetings.

    We just picked up a few, I'll find out where we got them. We may have bought in bulk and distributed throughout the country which won't help, but we got them locally, I'll let you know where.

    Sweet deal! Glad to see someone will use it. We have a ton of stuff to start pawning off. Fortunately nothing Tacoma size needed but I’m sure there will be some bicycle deliveries in my future.

    At first glance, I thought you had made a trebuchet! Then, I read the post and was much less excited...
