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

@Just_A_Guy

And dammit, I want an AC TRD OR with a 6-speed stick! They don't make those anymore...

 

Unpopular opinion here, but I’m not a fan of the stick shift in the Tacoma’s. Go buy a sports car for your manual fix.

 

So you dropped a mortgage payment on tires

Nice though.

 

That’s not bad. Cheaper than 4 A/T Wildpeaks for a Tacoma.

 

I paid like $600 for my Cooper Discoverer AT/3s...

 

Funny shit, though I wonder if it was the radio or a transmission issue from the station. I've seen those happen occasionally, though I don't use the radio much versus CD or USB.

I'm kinda partial to All Jacked Up from Gretchen myself, or the version of Picture she did with Kid Rock.

I forgot to say that the oil thing is probably better now, plus it's good that your mileage crept back up.

Though you know I'll never shut up about it, I bet using a scanner for fuel readouts will improve it more if you use it. Shoot, I got 30mpg from the Rav4 the other night.

 

This after just a day of driving all over creation in the Poconos, and I have a feeling my original frame would have looked a lot worse if I actually lived there; I'm glad that I don't live there!

 

Current odometer reading...

 

So that's just over 3,000 miles in less than a month and a half! Pete is changing the oil on Monday...

 

Nice and clean!

 

After going to the gas station and the car wash, then driving to work...

 

That truck would have made a great Pizza Planet truck!

 

Toyota is so strange by the way they configure Tacoma's. They still make the Off Road Manual in Access Cab but they only sell it in Canada, and then we get Manual Configurations that they dont.

 

thats great! Where you get them?

 

Let me guess. They “fell off a truck.”

 

Does this really surprise you? It took them 25 years to make intermittent wipers standard!

 

True but they were kinda playing to the market for that config...people who put a lot of miles on quick and drive em rather hard, so the company wanted cheapness. That said it's puzzling they wouldn't find another method
