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

If they are going to try and scam you would think they could at least list it correctly, its a Sport Double Cab.

 

I sold my original wheels to a guy with a Speedway Blue 2nd Gen Sport.

 

Ad is well written for someone probably outside the USA.

“Encumbrance” lol

 

That’s a big word for someone that owns and drives a Tacoma.
I’m not going to lie, I don’t even know what that word means?
And I’m not going to look it up either, words like that can be dangerois in my vocabulary.
I wouldn’t want people thinking I am smarter than I really am.

 

I am presently drooling over a station wagon in a 1987 Oldsmobile brochure...

I am presently discussing cars with my friend in Hong Kong, specifically handling and turning radius; I told him that my truck has a tighter turning radius than the 2008 Acura TL my dad used to have, and he asked what the turning radius was. I told him that I did not know, and he actually looked it up. Turns out that the turning circle is 40.7 feet, while a long wheelbase 1972 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow has a turning radius of 39.3 feet...

 

I remember the Nissan Frontier having a bad turn radius, it was like turning a battleship.

 

I think you got that from me, though my comparison was to an aircraft carrier...

 

Interesting fact.

 

This is my experience though I thought it might be the configuration of DCLB versus my usual truck. Never paid it much mind.

 

My saying about my 77 Malibu..I don't park it, I dock it

 

Ha. Try driving one of those super duty dually American trucks. Might as well be driving a school bus with those things.

 

I did that too in my days as a detailer at a dealership, a white 2017-2018 Ford F350 regular cab dually with an aluminum flatbed; I believe it was a 2017 because it was not long after I started working at the place in late 2018, and I seem to remember that it was the previous model year. It only had 300 miles on it, but the CEL was on because it had been sitting for months; I have no idea why it sat for so long, because commercial trucks generally go pretty fast at that dealer. It ran fine, but it had no backup camera and it was an absolute bitch to drive!

 

@Stitchgirl90 and I went to yet another pet expo, this one at the Great Philadelphia Expo Center in Oaks; 7-week old Cocker Spaniel puppies!

 

Turkey!
