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

2 Baja Designs S1s.
4 BD S2 Pros
1 BD RTL-S

All hooked up to a sPod so I can strobe them if want to back up during a rave. I also have Triton V6 bulbs for my reverse lights

 

If you have a roof rack just get any style light and mount to them. Otherwise I’d say just mount some angle iron to the bed rail and bolt some lights to that.

 

More patches; I’m not buying any more, but my dad, my uncle, and a coworker are giving some to me for free!

 

Best battery l ever had was an Odyssey, that thing was an absolute beast! Used it for 11 years in the Mustang and still use it today for bench testing things in the garage.

 

used 6inch Hella led light bar and made simple bracket with angle iron .

 

Its 57 degrees right now so it seems like we should break into the 60s by afternoon, maybe some snow will melt!

 

I've asked this question before, but not quite this in-depth...

My truck has a little over 125K miles, I've had it since new, and it has been obsessively maintained; The highest MPG I've recently observed in around town/stop-and-go driving is 17, and the lowest is 14. I have a bit of a lead foot at times, and during the summer I'm a prolific A/C user. The highest I observed was 22 MPG on the PA Turnpike, last summer, at speeds of 70-75 MPH with the A/C cranked. My window sticker said 19 CITY/25 HIGHWAY; 17 CITY and 22 HIGHWAY is acceptable to me for an 11-year old truck with over 125K miles, but the issue lately is that at my few refueling stops, my calculations show that I've been averaging 14 MPG. This is consistent, but I feel like a well-maintained 4-cylinder truck should be getting at least 18-19 MPG on average, especially in the winter with the A/C not being used. One member on here said that ethanol-based gas always kills gas mileage in the winter.

 

SOOOOO wish these were still made.

 

My Uncle Jeff has owned so many pickup trucks (not including the other cars) that I’ve lost count! I can think of at least four Toyota pickups (including the red 1986 he gave my grandpa and the orange 1991 he taught me to drive stick in), and over half a dozen Ford Rangers ranging in year from 1994 to 2011! He’s also owned a couple of Mazda trucks and a Dodge D50.

 

Gonna have some fun driving through puddles!

 

Same here...

We are supposed to get 2 inches of rain over the weekend, certainly will be no shortage of puddles!

 

Percussive maintenance!
