Always been one for a palm ranch style hat. What kind are you getting to match the ford?

 

Its whats for dinner.

 

Mexican word of the day. July


July'er

 

Yeah?

 

I think i did that wrong. But you know what i mean ese

 

At least you kept a tacoma I need a tow rig like that
Nice truck

 

Oh, we didn't get rid of any Tacomas.

Wasn't (and isn't) for sale; seriously.

I was thinking maybe a Kangol or British driving hat.

Mexican? It's called Spanish!




Seriously though, we don't need a $70k truck right now, or probably ever. It kinda goes against everything we've been working toward. Maybe one day we'll actually get a more tow-capable rig in our collection, but it'll be older for sure. This is my dad's truck, but we've got it for the next couple weeks. I've driven this thing across the country and back, and most times forgot there was even a trailer behind me. Triple digits no problem, and it's got all the fancy toys inside!

ahhh gotcha. Lol I was under the assumption when you said mall crawler wasn’t cutting it that you got a new truck. Silly me

 

Have you tried towing 5,000lbs + in a mall crawler Tacoma on 33"s for 1,000 miles each way, over lots of passes? It's not exactly fun.
Maybe I was trolling a bit, but it was legit.

In fact, it was so legit, that one must not quit.

 

I know, we talked once, I remembered what the plan was but had to give you some shit. It would almost fit the Montana cowboy scene!

 

Needs more chrome. And running lights.

 

You fooled me cabron!!

 

Currently sitting at Livermore Toyota for attempt number three at diagnosing a noise coming from under the truck that seems to happen primarily when beginning to move from a standing start on an incline. Something I have to do frequently where I live, in the Oakland Hills.

Livermore Toyota has already replaced my transmission, which I’m thinking may have been a mistake. I still have the noise. When I brought it back after the tranny replacement they found the carrier bearing on my drive line was toast. Pulled drive line. Took it back to Southbay Driveline. They couldn’t understand why a four month old shaft carrier bearing would fail. It was replaced, no charge. Put shaft back in. Still making noise. Straining, hopping kind of feel. Almost as though the rear was locked in 4 wheel drive, but not the front. Very weird. All I know is I’ve not had use of my truck for over a month, and it sucks.
