    Took me a minute to catch up. Let me get back on the real topic.


    Whataburger's #6 Avocado patty melt FTW. Its a good sandwich.

    Back in my high school days we had a waffle house that would do all-you-can-eat patty melts for 5 bucks. My buddies and I would do our best to make them regret that price. Then we would go home and eat dinner.

    Yeah now I'm hungry too. Being a Yankee there are No What a Burger's here, I hear I'm missing out. Even The nearest Waffle House is in Harrisburg 25 miles away.

    Back to topic. I think Raptor lights are way over done and silly. the Pro Heritage grill isn't far behind though it is good looking. I thought I wanted both when I joined here before getting my own Tacoma. I came to my senses sometime later and settled for the Stock 2020 SR5 grille only I replaced the chrome trim ring with black. I think only the 2020 OR grille looks better and not by much since I would rather not be a TRD Bro

    Waffle House is where you go when you need to reevaluate your life choices. It is the physical manifestation of rock bottom.









    Good patty melts tho.

    Raptor lights are stoopid because the are on the raptor for legal purposes. No such need on the Tacoma, so it’s fucking ricer.

    The Heritage grill is like anything else, open to your taste and interpretation. Some like it some don’t. I think it’s clean AF.

    I would call a person “TRD BRO” for purposely trying to pass their truck as a Pro. Seen bunch posers here that will actually put on a Pro badge on their truck. Lol

    Ford raptor lights are a legal requirement not a Ford design. The raptor is over 80 inches wide. 5 lights across says "I'm wide" and the two outer most lights say "this is how wide I am" for oncoming vehicles. Anything over 80 inches wide (including a trailer being towed behind a vehicle that isn't itself) needs them.

    In and out was a huuuuge disappoint. People talked it up and was about as tasty as the fumes inside a 110*+ temperature porta potty.

    BUT DID YOU GET IT ANIMAL STYLE YOU DID IT WROOOOOOONG.

    I got both. Standard and the "not menu" style. They were both meh. I feel like I was able to be pretty objective not growing up with attachments to either. If anything I would give my personal edge to in n out because of the fantasy we all have out here of so Cal and the mystifying alure of it.

    It was a mediocre fast food burger. Not that Whataburger is this gift from God but still, it was eh.

    Now. Dairy Queen. That was the absolute worst I've ever had. Good ice cream horrible burgers.

    The twist ons in my dome light are not out in the environment so corrosion will not be an issue if it were the terminals themselves would be a problem. They are secured in the dome with the cover on and vibration is no more than you feel as you drive the truck, they aren’t just “swinging around”. They also have a metal insert the wires are screwed into, the wires were well twisted in this insert and are mechanically secure, they will not come loose.
    Sounds like a totally different environment and perhaps the wires were not properly twisted and inserted in your experiences, and if exposed to the environment twist ons are the wrong application in the first place.
    As I said, I’m good, my twist ons will last longer than my truck as applied. :)

    5 guys is the Ridgeline of burgers. It isnt fast food, but it isnt hipster gourmet either. Its somewhere in between. It's just that weird "sans categorie" type of burger that is such an anomolous bastard that you don't really know what it is.

    Its that perfect burger that I want to take home and enjoy with a nice beer while binging Doom Patrol. I'm not sitting down in a five guys restaurant, and I'm not scarfing it in my car or at my desk.

    You summed up how I feel about the Heritage grille and adding TRD pro bits pretty well.. I like the Grille it is a nice clean design. I just don't want to be a Poser. If I want lights there are plenty of other lights to add to make my truck look cool or stoopid. Now were I live they put Raptor lights on any truck or suv, I even seen it on a Honda Crv.

    Heritage grill does not make you a poser. Heritage grill and TRD Pro badge does....
