    Shoot man old white dudes drove those where I lived growing up on the border. Takuaches just drive slammed single cab Silverados with illegally tinted windows and 22” wheels.

    My uncle in Louisiana had an F-350 dually similar to these. The OBS fords were even more commonly modified like that.

    Nobody wanted mine when I bought it because it didn't have A/C and had a 4-speed.. Though it did have PS and Power disc brakes. I might have paid $600 for it. It had 54,000 miles as I recall. LOL

    I've had a few other oddball cars as a kid and had no understanding of what I had.

    Stuff. Also things.
    Nah, I just look back and laugh. For every old Jeep moment, there are ten great memories of wheeling, good friends, and more than a few pretty girls :D

    She isn't confident with manual yet. Plan on trying to teach her more with the 4runner cause the clutch is way easier.

    Asked if the city could just do it, I consent or whatever but apparently they can't for liability reasons

    Sucker is leaning pretty good

    glad to see at least one of them gone, I hate those palm trees. They're the kind that drop thousands of huge seeds every spring that are hard as a fucking rock and will dent/set off car alarms

    I wish places like alignment and tire shops would just let you drive it into the bay yourself rather than making me listen to them revving it up to 4.5k in 1st gear with the clutch engaged

    Last time I was in the kid looked into my truck then looked at the owner and said "you'd better do this one".

    I gave him a hard time for it, but also told him I appreciated him not practicing on my truck.

    This is why I don't even take my cars to alignment shops anymore. Can't trust anyone.

    Everything done at home now.

    Every time I drive the 4runner and park it I end up punching the dash to the lower right of the steering wheel looking for the pimp cane e-brake that isn't there lol

    'the fuck?? oh yeah...'

    Pimp cane lmao. There are individuals out there that hate it so much they do a full 4Runner center console/e brake transplant.
