PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

I really don't know what I was thinking with those 16" wheels. They looked cool at first, especially with the BFG all-terrains they came with from TireRack, but they were starting to fall apart within a few years; I couldn't get anybody to buy them on TW marketplace and ended up scrapping them because they were taking up space...

 

3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, just under 1,100 square feet; I would love to have a house like this as a first place!

 

Better than driving about a mile from your house with the parking brake engaged because you're blasting Guns 'N' Roses and you can't hear the warning chime...

 

My dad had been driving the truck the day before and set the parking brake out of reflex; I never use the parking brake unless I'm on a hill. I drove off with the parking brake set and only realized was something was up when I heard the alarm screaming at me between guitar riffs; I promptly called up my dad and screamed at him for setting the parking brake in our driveway, and that didn't go well.

The microwave is still working fine, but the clock isn't once again...

 

Oven is totally fine...

 

Just over six years old and it's crapping out!

 

Back in Pittsburgh there is a radio station WDVE that had a show called Paulson and Krenn. They made a bunch of parody songs, one was Welcome To McDonald's instead of Welcome To The Jungle, it was quite funny.

 

Ain't shit made to last. I had to replace the shift actuator on my washing machine last summer, bitch is 5 years old and 3-4 loads of laundry per week.

 

I rebuilt my clothes dryer a few years ago, think l spent about $150 for parts. Looked at new ones but everything that was reasonably priced seemed so cheap and not able to make it past 5 years.

 

Always check if the ebrake is set before driving off. It’s muscle memory at this point. Maybe a product of driving a stick shift for years, but I typically check even if I was the last to drive the vehicle.

 

My old set was either 13, 33, or 43 years old by the model number was the best I could find out. I know they weren't 13. Pretty good stuff.

 

Mine was about 20 when I rebuilt it, stuff today is not going to last that long unless its a fluke.

 

And it was also made in China...

 

Out of curiosity l checked where my dryer was made, it says Georgia, USA.

 

Either way I don't care where something is made, assembled, etc..long as it works and holds up.

Yes, this exactly what you think it is; I got it up to almost 150 MPH!
