Colorado B.S. Thread

@YamaDirtrider sent you a PM. Want to fix up my front suspension.

 

Hey y'all,

I bought my 21 Tacoma OR to get me to trailheads in Colorado. Couple of tire related questions for those of you that hike the 14ers here: is an upgrade to 265/75/16 really worth it over the stock tires? And, if it is, is SL load range fine or do I really need E? I don't do any crazy wheeling. Just want to get to trails and it's also my daily driver. Truck is completely stock now but do have RCI sliders on the way. Thanks for any info!

 

I’ve been out all weekend.

 

Hem-hawing about the 6112. I bought my Tacoma in 2019 with 148k. 2010 dcsb OR 4x4. The original shocks were shot so I had 5100s put on shortly after purchasing. What says everyone on getting some 6112s?

 

Sounds like you'll be just fine with the stock size in SL.

Most of the 14er trailheads don't even need 4WD. Spend your money on fancy shocks to smooth out the washboarded dirt roads instead

 

Stock highway tires on my SR haven’t failed to get me to a TH yet. Also, 6P4’s comment about shocks is very, very true.

 

Clean up your camp sites folks, even if the trash isn't yours. Found a whole bunch of trash at a really nice camp site yesterday with @johntoyota @Littles and @YamaDirtrider .

 

Yeah, I'm planning on replacing 8-gallon action packers that are in my truck now - one has spare fluids, tire chains and recovery gear that I'd like to split into two separate bins. Then my camp kitchen would go into the 3rd.

Casa Bonita files for bankruptcy after 47 years in business

 

That just means they are trying to get out of some debts and not necessarily going out of business, right? Where's our resident tax code people?

 

It's Chapter 11 (Re-organize) so they want to continue the business, chapter 7 is liquidation of business.

 

With 11, can they get out of the back pay they owe their employees?

 

No, regular employee wages can not be discharged, Commission/ Bonus's are a grey area.

 

The unmentionable person responsible for this should have to buy all their remaining "food" inventory with the money going to the employees. Then said person should be forced to eat it. And maybe then jump off the cliff.

Forgot the microwave "cooking"

 

I'm more interested in that $3500 frontier

 

I briefly thought about it... How hard would be to replace the clutch anyway?

 

I'd rate it at a 12 pack or less
