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

Congratulations on the new frame Charlie

 

The salesman was a young Indian guy who drove a Lexus, my truck had 20 miles on the clock when we drove it off the lot, and the first time I plugged my iPod into the AUX input before we even drove it off the lot the sound system was so weak that I thought I'd blown the speakers; That's all I really remember...

 

Well, I got hired! Filling out the paperwork right now...

 

Have you thought about buying a 3mm magnetic sheet and sticking the decal to those and cutting out?

 

I have had two jobs where my uniform consisted of an apron that I wore at all times when I wasn't on break, and then when I was working at Puck as a barback I'd wear a waterproof apron when in the prep kitchen whenever I made fruit juice for the bar or helped wash the dishes; I never thought I'd be working at a place where my uniform was purple (apron or otherwise; I found these pictures online to show you what my new uniform will look like)...

 

I am about 6 feet tall, at least 270 pounds, and built like a brick shithouse, so I hope they have an apron in my size that doesn't look like a kindergartener's painting smock when I'm wearing it!

 

Yeah, someone else suggested something like that; I'm not particularly precise with that sort of thing though...

If worst comes to worst, I will just apply them directly to the paint and remove them on November 1st using a plastic razorblade and my mom's hairdryer; I was able to remove my factory chrome emblems with just the hairdryer...

 

One Halloween I decided to have a zombie theme on my Tacoma. Some friends and I covered our hands in red plasti dip then smeared it all over my truck to make it look like I had been running them over.

Got a lot of attention and everyone loved it, although it was a real pain in the ass to remove

 

Yeah, I am never putting PlastiDip on my truck again! NEVER!



Seriously though, your zombie apocalypse theme sounds like it was awesome!

 

Found a old photo from Insta. I meannn I might have done it again… but I doubt it’s a good idea now that my current taco is bedlined

 

Joel Miller from The Last of Us would be proud!

 

Got a little bored at work, had an idea, and requisitioned some zip ties during my lunch break...

 

My Tacoma , my previous Tacoma and my Corrolla all have crank windows. Not much of an issue to me being with EZ Pass and A/C on the vehicles. By the way thats a nice grill Penn Silver.

 

Looks like something off the old zombiesquad website. http://www.zombiehunters.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=45&sid=4099197ff4d1b333d33a8374d52a61c7

 

September went by pretty quickly

 

Pros and cons of my truck; First the pros...

• Incredibly reliable.
• A/C that will literally numb your skin and allow you to see your breath even when the outside temperature is above 90 degrees.
• Has an impressive payload for a 4-cylinder.
• Really good turning radius.
• Good build quality.
• Highly customizable.

 

Now, the cons...

• The frame, but I'm kinda glad it's getting replaced...
• The gas mileage sucks!!!
• Labors a little bit when accelerating up a hill.
• Rear drum brakes.
• Bench seat.
• Aftermarket Bluetooth handsfree phone system rarely works properly, but strangely works fine when I'm streaming music.
• Rear fenders incredibly prone to dents.

 

Thanks! This now means that I don't have to worry about a new vehicle for at least another decade!
