    I know right!? Its like they looked at the ridgeline and were like... hmm, what does this have that the tacoma doesn't that might intice a buyer away from the tacoma? Hmmm, styling? Definitely not... comfort? No? Seat position? Nah couldn't be that :confused:. Man idk. Next guy, hey what about this trunk contraption, it has a drain plug for ice and you can lock it. Heck yeah! That's gotta be it, to the drawing board fellas, we have work to do!

    I've got a GoPro mount on my 18. I don't have a mechanical 4WD lever or a real front axle, but I got a GoPro mount.

    Greatest commercial and greatest slogan of all time. "Nothing soft gets in." That's as Australian as it gets right there.

    Sad part is someone probably got an ata boy for that idea when other great ideas were silenced. They should fix the problems that already exist with the truck instead of adding pointless accessories that maybe 3% of people will actually use.

    Don't you know you have to pass these checkpoints before you're admitted to the Outback? It's like a whole other country! (Or is that Texas?)

    I think Im going to wire my 6 probe cooking thermometer to various points in my engine tomorrow. I need to know if my engine gets up to pizza temps or if it stays at brisket temps like I suspect. Maybe I can toast a nice cuban torta for lunch.

    Or you know what might be a better use for it, remove the ice and add some water which will heat up during the day in the sun. Then before heading home, dump your dirty drawers in there with some laundry detergent. :washing:

    You're wife will never yell at you again for your filthy underpants!

    The best bit that I saw posted was that the factory used those locations as lift points in the factory. When the factory tooling was changed and those lift points were no longer needed, the pockets were deleted.

    It is common for most folks to not understand product development. How long it takes for a new model introduction, cycle refreshes, and MY updates. Not even considering feature releases and their planning through the concept, proposal, management, and production organizations.

    You add salt to lower the melting point and make the ice colder to make ice cream.
