1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I had to reschedule it, was supposed to leave work early for it but had some stuff come up that day. It's on the 27th now

 

and yes, for covid...I do not want to find out that I have antibodies for HIV lol

 

Only issue with mentioning you're handy at work... Smh

 

It's crap compared to my LC, my taco and the 3rd gen runner I drove have good turning radius for a mid size truck (neither of them are one) but they're not super tight at all

 

reminds me when I used to have coworkers, they would always ask me to check stuff with their beat up cars that they always neglected.

There was the guy I worked with that seized his engine after the light came on and he drove around anyway, then there was the guy with a Lexus SUV (early 2000s one), wanted to know how to check his oil. So I pulled his dipstick and it was bone dry. He goes 'oh..yeah..I bought this like 3 years ago and have never gotten an oil change, that's why I wanted to know if I should or not"

My dad was not a DIY'er growing up and I never really learned anything about tools or cars, etc from him...but I took it upon myself to at least learn basic things as I got older and moved out on my own. I sincerely worry about a lot of people my age.

 

I'd have said, you're on a roll right now, why break a winning streak.

 

What are you waiting for really? Rona test?

 

That's interesting my 4 runner can u turn where my tacoma had to do 3pt turns both have lifetime alignments at firestone

 

Rona vacc

yeah he was basically relying solely on the reliability of Toyota/Lexus without having a clue that he was doing so. I told him to go down the street to the Vavoline drive through shop and just say 'yes' to whatever they offer you lol.

 

Fair enough, even if they bend him right over and shove the oil gun up his rectum it's still a bargain given how long he's put off maintenance

 

No, the Vaccine.

 

In another few months I'm sure it will be readily available anywhere, can probably get it from the Starbucks drive through eventually.

 

It's already ineffective against new mutation.

 

Well that sucks. I thought I had heard that they expected it to work against the more contagious strain. Unless there's another mutation I haven't read about.

The facts are always changing the longer this goes on so I don't put much stake in any new information anymore lol.

 

The cruiser can whip a pretty tight turn, nothing really in the way with solid axles I guess though and the birfield joint is supported internally so it can flex far.

 

whats yours at?

I can make a u turn on my neighborhood street by just fractions of an inch which not even my dad's car can do

I actually curbed it pretty bad my first time trying... rim guard tires saved my ass

I see what you're saying about the birfs I can't immagine tight turns are good for the that have play

 

Got a case of the I don't wanna's
