    yeah here too. Supposed to hit us Saturday. We were gonna take a drive up the mountains after my sister's baby shower to see all the snowfall but with Dex now there's no way we can take my truck. And I really don't want to drive a FWD Rav up the mountain during a snowstorm and have to deal with chains and shit so...guess we'll wait.

    That's absurd. Even adjusted for inflation, that's more than it sold for new!

    Not to mention it's a bare-bones bade model with a distributor and no tachometer with that horrible bench seat lol. I'm pretty sure that kind of undercoating can accelerate rust if anything. It is a sweet looking little truck but anything over 15k is just irresponsible IMO.

    Yeah agreed. And most have been going down lately, this is an outlier for sure. Weird choice but I guess someone must want this exact spec and color pretty badly.

    I’ve been running without a sway bar for over a year now. Only time I miss it is if I’m changing lanes in a hurry, gets a little squirrelly. Other than that it seems fine.

    My ABS fuse burnt out and haven't bothered bc I like it without, now the sway bar removal seems to have made the front have more articulation with bumps. (even tho i have maybe a half inch of downtravel now loooool)


    the body rolls a bit but truck seems to respond better than putting all the force on suspension in the front. glad you had similar results!

    I've had old friends sending me pics, freaking 101 is crazy flooded.

    Worse than it was when the area by Gilroy was flooded some years ago.

    I remember posting a pic sometime back of the road at the end of my house being completely flooded and having helped yank people with my Taco.

    Is she good though?

    Mods should add a "DELETE THIS POST" where it's deleted if enough people click.
