Are your wires seating entirely and do you wash the engine ever?

 

They better they're brand new ngks, maybe once or twice (not with a pressure washer)

 

Well I feel dumb. AC guy came out and found a duct that had slipped off a register box under the house. That fixed a good part of my problem with it running non stop. Well it still runs a lot more than it should even after that. I poke my head up in the attic and see that probably a third of the house has zero insulation. Also a good amount missing under the floor. Guess I know what Im doing this weekend.

 

I gotta make way more $

3700 bucks an acre doesn't seem bad

 

I have a new Harrison rad. From Toyota. Should I charge $2000 for it?

 

Fuck I’m looking at 20 acres for 220k… 11k an acre was a deal I thought

 

I know that company can't figure out how to make an AC compressor I'm going to guess the radiators aren't too much better I've never had a Tacoma that still had one

 

They might just rust anyway because they're cheap American plugs and don't have any nickel coating. These cheapo plugs are the reason why most people feel the need to slather their spark plugs in anti-seize

 

I come to that conclusion after a while too

 

It just hit me, we sold my grandpa's 2 acres for 70k cash outside of city limits.... I though Texas was supposed to be cheap

The county appraised it at 70 it sold for 70 a week after putting a for sale sign up

 

Not bad per acre, but the total isn't what you'd call budget friendly.

But also not easy to find property in Ferndale

 

Imagine the bank you'd make subdividing that

 

Gimme the coast acreage, divide the rest.
Though it'd be nice having it all haha.

 

Eh. 300k out of the old one before it sprung a leak. They seemed to be of ok quality.


Aluminum is all I’ll run in the trucks now though. The tundras rad has been wonderful (until you lean on it hot)

 

I haven't heard much lately about the aluminum ones for our trucks. I remember a few people here had some issues but I think that was with some early ones.

 

the champions are an issue. koyo looks promissing. but i think someones sprung a leak recently too.

i've got a custom one from radiator supply house out of Oregon. its been flawless in the tundra. fit great and all. hell they've called a few times to make sure everything is good! $$$ though

 

My first house had zero insulation in the walls. I had never heard of such a thing. It only had a little bit of blown in the attack.

 

There are a number of 100 owners on Mud who have all started switching to Morimoto aluminum. It was a little late for me to make that switch. Remembering some of the aluminum issues that we've seen here, I was initially hesitant.
