1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

There’s that feeling again, need to go camping.

 

Where was that posted?

 

That's the kind of 40 I'd want as a beach cruiser. That thing had to have sold quick.

Listing's still up. Let me know when I should pick you up at the airport!

 

40 what?

 

Facebook - DFW Land Cruisers group. Do you want me to ask for an email address?

 

Looks badass. Did you put on the Delta sticker yet?

 

Wanted to keep it simple.

Unfortunately, you can't get a plate with a single round opening and I didn't need 4 USB ports so...got a dummy filler voltmeter.

Where'd you put your sticker? I haven't put any on my LC.

 

I think it's buried in the garage boxes somewhere. I hope I didn't lose it. The only stickers I have on are a couple of small Cruiser Outfitters in the rear side glasses.

If I find it, I think I'll put it in the rear center like this. They look good on 80 series..

 

Someone talk me out of giving up my 1st gen.

I currtnly drive my 99 taco, 2.7 4x4 5-speed with 330k miles. The paint is pure garbage but the body is straight and the interior is good. No big issues, a few oil seaps but a good truck overall.

Been eyes a 01 mustang gt or a cobalt ss. I drive a 90 mile round trip for work each day and I would like something with more power for the interstate.

I feel like the truck is safer...it's in the condition where I don't care about road rash..If I need the bed I have it...and living in the south weather matter and never know what kind of weather we will face.

I have a 97 silverado so I tell myself I don't need two trucks but I also feel I would get tired of driving a little car everyday.

 

This truck sure looks familiar. Is that parked by Museum Road?

 

Somebody will buy it.

 

That paint looks mint

My dad's bmw looked about as much... I wet sanded it lightly than clear coated it with some spray max 2k clear... Looks factory and since it's a 2 part paint it's just like automotive paint that comes out of a gun

Hasn't yellowed under Texas sun in a year

 

Get rid of the Silverado

 

Yup, sell the Silverado and buy the sports car

I mean, unless there's a reason the Silverado has to stay like to haul a big trailer/camper/boat or something

 

Your edit is worthless.

Sell the Silverado

 

figure there's some reason the Silverado is around and wasn't considered to sell, only reason I can think of is if he's got something to tow occasionally that a 2.7l 1st gen can't (which is basically anything amirite)


inb4 everyone with a 4 banger posts photos of themselves towing stuff, looking at you Tyler

 

Yeah, its the only reason I still have the nissan. That 6100lb tow rating is handy. I'll probably get rid of it though soon enough - Enterprise rents trucks that can tow.

 

It'll have a 4L60E though.

Those things barely survive being in a truck; you can rebuild one easily, or find that every transmission shop will get you a quick turn around on one. They're just not very stout in factory form.

Have a 4L80 done by Performabilt in my Corvette, but I'd launch that at 3k+ having a 3200 yank stall on it. The 700R4 in it before bit the dust on the track, and so did the one in my Silverado I had years back.

Overdrive is the first thing to go in those.
