    If the taco was named Norris, what did you name Tundra? Van Damme?

    The Tundie is known in our household as "Shadow". My kiddos are huge Sonic the Hedgehog fans and we purchased the Tundra shortly after watching Sonic 2, and they learned of "Project Shadow". :D

    Shadow sounds menacing. I like it.

    Whatever happened to the SxS?

    Only thread update I’ve got since the truck has sat for a month is that the battery is dead dead. Hooked up a trickle charger because I figured it was low but wasn’t expecting it to be this low. Probably a small parasitic draw of some sort, or maybe it’s the 10° nights we’ve been having, or maybe that the battery isn’t a spring chicken anymore and is 4 years old now.

    Same issue I have right now, not really holding a charge. I think that artic blast may have killed it.

    I wouldn’t be surprised because it was COLD. Saturday morning it was 11°, feels like -1°. No pipes froze in the house though so that’s good.

    It was 9 Saturday and the power company thought it was a good idea to do rolling blackouts due to the strain on the system.

    Luckily i didn't get hit with the power loss but I don't think my heat pump cut off for 4 straight days...lol


    Then it was 62 today, go figure.

    It does, I’ve driven less than 5k miles since then so my maintenance reminder light hasn’t triggered. First time I’m due for a change because of age vs miles driven.

    Is this some sort of fancy BMW like @Slow Internet ’s that only requires yearly or every 10k mile oil changes?

    @EatSleepTacos do you grasp backspacing and offset well? Trying to figure out new wheels for the Tundie and have been looking at Method 305's in 18x9 +25mm offset/6" backspacing. I want enough poke to be even with or slightly past a set of Bushwacker flares. I believe the stock 20s are 20x8 +60mm offset from what I can find online.

    https://www.methodracewheels.com/products/305-nv-titanium?variant=31913561423933

    Will these get me there or do I need a different spec wheel?

    Does OP still exist? Someone send out a search party! If he doesn't turn up, I nominate @Justanotherhemi for Captain.
