1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Two of my coworkers tested positive for COVID. They want me to remote in to work tomorrow. Debating on lying and getting tested for COVID to go back sooner. I hate working remotely.

 

Their customer service has always impressed me.

 

i love it when i call a place and i get someone from America on the phone. that right there was confidence inspiring

 

No. Prices are fair.

 

Well then Tacomaworld is full of cheap asses cause I had a ton of inquiries but no actual buyers here.

Post up on another forum and bam -

 

The washer bottle on my and my buddies sr5 4 runner is smaller and higher up than the limited 4 runners and tacomas ... Worth looking Into if your tires are 285/33" or taller

 

Yeah you wouldve sold it quicker splitting it up, but somebody will take it all eventually. Recent events dont point to that stuff getting any cheaper or more available.

 

Bruh had me in the first half

Morning. GDIFM!
God Damnit It's Fucking Monday

 

Silly...

Why cut up the body which makes a perfectly good house just to put a pop up on it?

I would drive the new econo-F250 tho

 

She's not a real latina tho... he didn't get chancla attacked

 

I'd immagine having less fender to look past at intersections when seeing if right hand turns are clear is a game changer

 

Looks like a modern version of the ones Winnebago came up with in the 80s... the Ford Centurion



My neighbor has one actually. It uh, well its a Ford so it's weak. The 460 is a turd.

 

Holy cow i can't believe a real company would commission such a monster

The one I posted i pulled from the internet and was reported as being a custom project for some customer. Noone in their right mind aside from us van lovers would ever think it to be a good idea

 

The centurion was very real, this is a rather stripped version too, they came with full on sleeper interiors (the rear seats folded into a bed), the captains chairs could be swiveled to address a table in the rear. They were all dually, some had the weak Windsor engine and some had the weak 460 big block. They both made zero power and had a three speed non lockup torque converter, so MPG was nada. I don't think there was ever a 4WD version.

 

They have to be 40”AT’s though

True van life lol

 

Love it when a pos European VFD craps out on a Monday morning.


@Abeyancer ever deal with Eurotherm drives? This is our second one to burn out in 6 months.

 

@Empty_Lord and all.

A friend and past co-worker recently had his family 2005 Civic totaled. He is looking to buy some older "reliable" import. He is posting on FB about possibly buying or considering a Volvo C30 or C130. I stopped paying attention to Volvo after the 242, 244, 245 tank series ended. He is semi retired and should be budget conscious.

I cringe when I see regular folk considering a car that, around here, can be expensive to have repaired. I consider budget and Euro car to be mutually exclusive.

I think a Toyota Corolla would be a better fit. Can you recommend a good "simple" year Corolla for me to recommend?
