1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

ECGS gave me some great customer service the little I dealt with them.

 

so do I


I just let her eat an ol italian tuneup

 

This

 

you coming to the BBQ?

 

If nothing else i definitely want to run their front diff bushing and I like the idea of solid spacers in place of the crush sleeves .. but you said your harrop was 1100 and they want 1350 so I probably won't get 3rds fully built by them

 

The secret is to be tougher than you look so you take people by surprise


found a few pics, This was back in 2014 I think. Was called the Lava Shot challenge, blurred out my ex so it doesn't come back to haunt me


got to make hand rolled Nicaraguan cigars and go boarding down the side of an active volcano, was good times. Except we stayed in different hostels for 2 weeks which was pretty damn sketchy at certain points.




Nicaragua is basically the poor man's Costa Rica, but you fare a lot better if you tell everyone you're Canadian. The US's involvement with Nicaragua is kind of a controversial topic there lol.

 

you haven't heard about the BBQ?

 

you're not coming to the BBQ?

 

sounds like a pretty solid trip!

 

@Wulf

 

we basically went up and down the Pacific side, were there for 2 weeks and stayed in each town a few days. The eastern side of the country is where the drug cartels travel through so you want to avoid that area, lol. Although that's the side that's mostly jungle and would be cool to see, IMO at least.

They have a giant lake in the middle of the country with a bunch of islands full of monkeys, we rented a kayak and got out to one of them but those monkeys are mean AF. When you get close to the island they start to throw shit at you from the trees

Nicest town was San Juan Del Sur, which is pretty much on the border of Costa Rica. I also got food poisoning there on the last leg of our trip and it ruined the last few days, Montezuma got his revenge on me good.

 

NO!!

 

Ridgelines have a nicer interior and better build quality than 3rd gen Tacomas. Fight me

 

Ridglines aren't trucks. Fight me.

 

I think the older ones actually have a real 4wd system too don't they? I know newer ones have AWD instead, but the older ones have 4wd tags on them

 

You should go it'll be fun

 

I don’t think he knows why you’re talking about

 

OTOH they are part time 4wd so it is AWD until you lock the center diff for 4WD high. no 4low

 

the BBQ?

 

Ah, boo on that then...no 4lo, no real 4wd
