    As someone who had to clean up vomit off a 3 yr old that rolled around in it at 2am and then got up at 5am because of the stupid time change, this is a fair question

    Are there any California Toyota FB pages I can post these UCAs on? They're not very winter friendly

    It's a blunt question but I think an important one. We were in your shoes, if it happens it happens, one day we may want them, blah blah blah. Scares were scary and not exciting. We came to the conclusion that since we didn't want kids, it wasn't the best plan to enter such responsibility. Just food for thought.
    Haha ouch!

    I was there once as well and when you know, and decide, that you don't want kids it can be a heavy decision, just like deciding to have them is.
    Either way, I think some people often approach the issue overly casually, especially when young.

    Oh it’s been a Thing I’ve wanted for a long time I’ve planned around it being within the 27-34 year old range. I don’t want to be too old and not to young. I’ve got a few more years. But I’m at the point where eh, fuck it lol. But ideally after marriage. And after w/e the hell I decide to buy to live in happens

    Yeah, and I don't think there are any full size trucks I wouldn't call ugly now.
    I guess the Ram 1500 at least has an acceptable grille instead of a wall.

    Never tried those ones, but I know if you're doing what they are doing in the pictures that you'll want to vent it well or it will build moisture inside from the exposed ground. Depending on where you are, they don't all handle snow load well.
