    That sounds about right, every Tacoma I have owned do worse by about 2 MPG on the highway than what they get in everyday driving so go figure.

    Twenty bucks for the snowblower; However, I've consumed enough of my other neighbor's beer and eaten enough of his food that I think he deserved a freebie, not to mention I've made use of his swimming pool!

    I FINALLY saw the new Pixar movie Onward and I have to say that Barley's van "Guinevere" is probably my favorite character...

    Barley sacrifices his beloved van near the end of the movie, in order to keep the police from stopping their quest...

    I rode my mountain bike yesterday for the first time this year and quickly found out I was out of riding shape, lol. Spent a lot of time gasping for air, leg cramps, and pushing my bike up some of the hills on the trails.

    The other night I heard a really loud bang and then a few seconds later sounded like glass exploding, looked out the window and could see Chevy Truck tail lights and a guy standing beside it, he had a tow truck out there in about 5 minutes and got out of here pretty quickly. Last Summer a Chevy Truck had the lower control arm shear off and crashed into the ditch next to my driveway, seems like this must be a bad spot for Chevy Trucks to drive, lol.

    I think the guy lived back in behind me, several of those families back there have old fashioned tow trucks. I dont know what happened the other night, not sure what blew up on that truck

    It’s out in the open, so I hardly think it’s unsafe...

    @shakerhood

    Air intake filter is not clean, but it’s hardly clogged with dirt, so I don’t think it’s causing my 4-banger truck to get worse gas mileage than some bigger V8 trucks...
