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

It probably would not be too hard to build one of these! There's a guy in Kansas who run's a YouTube channel called Hoovie's Garage, and he lifted a AWD 1991 Plymouth Voyager...

 

I drive a pickup truck with crank windows that's more than a decade old; Back in 2018, my dad offered me his 2013 Honda Pilot Touring (which had almost 20K more miles than my truck despite being 3 years newer) but was MINT. I would have had to sell the Tacoma because I don't need two vehicles and didn't want to pay for insurance on two vehicles (also, apparently the 3.5L V6 with cylinder shutdown that my dad's had was prone to using oil once it got past 100K miles). TRANSLATION: I am NOT picky about vehicles (just don't expect me to drive a Prius)! All I want is a vehicle that starts every time I turn the key, and has cold A/C, hot heat, and a great stereo. If one of those things breaks, I will go to the end of the earth to make it operational again!

 

Im guessing its optic yellow so that the rescue crews can see it from miles off when it breaks down far from a major road?

 

Hey now, the 3.3L is a good engine; If it has the Shitsubishi 3.0L then one should be worried!

 

If somebody gave me a Prius, I would take it because it's not only a free car, but a free Toyota; There's no denying that the Prius is a reliable vehicle. The guy who works for my mechanic drives a red 2012 Prius V with like 80K miles that be bought super cheap and paid cash; He loves the thing and says that it even has enough room for his rifles when he goes hunting! The Prius V is far better looking than the original Prius in my opinion! A Prius would be great for doing DoorDash because of the great fuel economy, but it's still a Prius...

 

The Dealer gave me one as a loaner one time, it felt kinda weird. Hard to describe the experience other than feeling disconnected.

 

I can’t stand the backup alarm that sounds inside the car whenever it’s in reverse! I was tasked with backing my aunt’s Prius out of the driveway so we could gain access to another vehicle, and I thought I’d forgotten to release the parking brake or something; Turns out all of these damn hybrids have this feature!

 

It would be a decent car for that Doordash stuff as it would get good MPG, but you would just have to adjust to the quirks.

 

I’ve told the story of my friend Tim who used to work at a haunted hayride, where his job was to dress up like a zombie and scare people; He decided to practice his “scare tactics” on me this one time in September or October of 2010 when we were hanging out in a third friend’s basement. The first time he did it, I was very polite and told him not to do it again...

The second time, I cussed at him and demanded that he not do it again..

The third time, I leapt over the couch, wrapped both of my hands around his throat, and slammed him against the wall. The third friend had to get between us; I should not have done that, but you know what? Tim never used his “zombie” scare tactics on me again!

 

I’ve also told me people that if they sneak up on or startle me, I won’t be held responsible if I punch them in the face out of reflex; To date, this warning has been taken seriously!

 

When I was younger, like under the age of 16, I lost count of how many people got punched or otherwise hit because they snuck up on me!

 

It’s snowing hardware?

 

Same, I tend to believe less is more in terms of power stuff etc..perhaps bc I drove so many vehicles that were 10 plus years old when I got them and had no real way to test those items

 

Forgot to post the pictures of how they look at night from the driver’s seat; I was on a secluded residential street with nobody around, so I turned off the headlights...

 

Also forgot to mention that I hit 124K while doing DoorDash yesterday!

 

New patch!

 

Your picture reminded me of this, lol.

 

There is a trucking yard behind my work, and these weird 1-passenger semis come and go all the time; I’ve seen 1-passenger cement trucks, but never anything like this...

 

Those are mover trucks (that's what I call them). They are usually relegated to warehouse parking lots and are used to move trailers around the lots. I usually see them at large distribution centers.
