PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

The last few years I’ve always secured the wreaths directly to the grille with zipties; This year’s wreath has a circular metal brace that made it impossible to fit...

Looks a little off-kilter with it so low to the ground, but it looks a hell of a lot better lit up at night (might end up relocating back upward though)!

 

I wonder if you could buy some Velcro and secure them to the bed floor perhaps..or use 2 cleats and shim them to the side, then ratchet strap

 

Outside my friend’s house...

 

One of my favorite cartoons as a kid!

Indeed it is! Decided it was more cost-effective to trade the Toro for something that actually runs and pay the difference, instead of paying who-knows-how-much to get the Toro running! I even made a five dollar profit on the Toro!

 

Added lights to the trike, as well as a candy cane; Don’t think I’m gonna keep the hitch-hauler on though because it’s turning out to be a bit of a hassle...

 

Also added another strand above the windshield!

 

View from the backup camera at about 40 MPH; Both of the camera shots were taken after the tree fell down and I had to put new zip ties on...

 

At about 60 MPH...

 

@disconnected

How you doing?

 

Amazingly enough, this little parking lot encounter has not appeared on my truck's Carfax report; I think it might have something to with the fact that police were not called, and thus a police report was not filed...

 

Carfax is pretty much a joke, you can find some useful info but l dont trust them.

 

The March 2015 accident where I got rear-ended and the October 2015 accident where I got hit by a drunk driver are listed...

 

My 1st Gen Tacoma that honestly should have been totaled had a clean Carfax, also had been shopping used cars that had obvious accident repairs but still showed clean.

 

I have kind of a sore spot with Carfax do to a shady car lot from years ago when l was with my ex fiance'. She saw a Ford Focus MT she wanted me to go look at so the guy gives us the keys and l popped the hood. First thing l noticed was an aftermarket radiator and then the VIN Tags were missing from the hood and drivers fender. I politely pointed out to the guy that the car had been in an accident, he angered quickly and responded with no it hasn't! I pointed out the missing VIN Tags and the Radiator and his response was "It has a clean Carfax"! I looked underneath and mentioned the lower control arm had paint markings from a Junkyard, his response again was "It has a clean Carfax"! There was overspray on the drivers side rocker panel, "It has a clean Carfax"! There is freaking shattered glass under the drivers seat, "It has a clean Carfax"! The damaged wheel from the drivers front was moved to the passenger side rear, "It has a clean Carfax"! I pointed out everything l could find and that guy would never admit that it had been in a serious accident.

 

You can use Carfax as a tool to help you with purchases because more info is always a great thing, just don't rely on one completely without doing other inspections.

 

And the Car Fox and all his friends are pretty funny...

There's one commercial where he has bass (as in the fish) with Bluetooth headsets logging VINs of flooded cars!

 

LOL, l think l remember that one.
