    hmm...4Runner guy's phone number is linked to some weird looking Appliance business in San Diego that comes off like a front for something lol. Google reviews (only 2) both say it's a scam business *sigh*

    hunt continues I guess

    I haven’t seen it yet but I plan to tonight. Funnily enough, Cordyceps is supposed to have a lot of health benefits. You see it and other mushrooms in a lot of trendy health drinks nowadays.

    I do also hear about fungal infections causing a lot of weird health issues though, especially in people with compromised immune systems. I guess it’s really a double edged sword.

    It's got heavy second gen 4runner vibes haha. But the interior is very clean.

    yeah I'm sure the whole notion of how easily it could happen is greatly exaggerated for the storyline, but I never liked mushrooms anyway so this just gives me another reason to put on the list

    Why does the guitar riff from Mrs. Robinson have to slap so hard. It's stupid simple and it hits hard, maybe it's how raw the recording is, it clips the mic in some parts.

    Well you would know, never seen someone with such an intimate study of the color of red all on one vehicle

    I want to say yes but tbh Dex hasn't been that crazy in the house, it's mostly when he's outside that he goes nuts. He crates well when we're not home (we did try not crating him once, checked the nanny cams and he had both cats cornered in the kitchen lol).

    I think it's just more do you have the energy to give him when you are home, that's been the biggest change up for us is having to slice out a good amount of time for walks and dog parks, backyard fetch, etc to make sure he's getting his daily zoomies out. But I think that's probably true for any dog unless they're a sleepy senior.

    at 5 years old too he may be a bit more relaxed, actually I just read the description and he sounds like a gem

    I've been avoiding FB marketplace just because I hear so many horror stories but Craigslist is not much better it seems lol

    thanks for the link, I'll look into it a bit more. Elk Grove isn't too far from my wife's parents

    weird that's the 3rd lower mileage 5spd 4runner I've seen that says it's had a 'new' transmission put in. Makes me wonder how many probably just needed a new shifter bushing or something but the mechanic sold them on a whole new trans. Not like it's that easy to ruin the manuals unless they're absolutely terrible at driving it.

    @eon_blue Would you take your SC, headers off and put em on the runner first? The runners are 183 hp, even less than a stock tacoma... just sayin :evil:

    But our "American" based supplier assured us they shipped red frames!


    It's a frame and equipment style originally made by the Stanley Infrastructure company and the patent ran out so everyone and their mother in this industry has these frames made by the same factory in China lol. Looking through our competitors with minimal google-fu shows em in red(our color) yellow (stanley), black (ICS), and white (made by a couple people) but I can't find any in blue
