    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Nice truck for sure, smaller 4.6 (2UR) is a plus I think since you aren't towing really. But still if you're not on the highway a lot the MPG will be abysmal. I don't daily the LC because of that anymore

    I probably got about 6 inches total, but when I was shoveling there were windblown areas with at least a foot.

    I thought you were not too worried about MPG, if you were light on the throttle it probably wouldn't be too hateful.

    I'd pay five grand more for 20K fewer miles. It used to be that higher mileage was a major bargaining point. Now even the certified preowned vehicles seems to have 70K miles or more...

    Definitely seems harder to find low mileage ones that are not priced through the roof.

    Just found a 2019 AC SR 2.7L/auto 4x4 for like $19K, but while it was in great shape, it had almost 90K miles...

    I picked up something to scrap today; I'm not 100% sure, but I think that in a a past life it was one of those spring-loaded playground things for kids to ride on; very heavy, so it should add some $$$ to my bottom line!

    Some of you may remember that I got an unopened special edition pack of Ketel One for free when I helped a couple clear out their recently purchased own house in exchange for getting to scrap stuff; we drank some of it last night...

    :drunk:

    Yeah, I won’t drink that anymore.
    No Vodka for me. The drunkest I’ve ever been was drinking Vodka.
    I was 19 and made a complete fool of myself. Puke everywhere.
    Waking up in a pool of vomit is never fun. Neither is cleaning it up.

    I don’t drink anymore, mostly because I don’t know when to stop.
    Not starting is my best stopping point. Unfortunately it took me a good while to figure that out.

    I've never puked from drinking too much; I've gotten a really bad hangover before, but I've never puked...

    I can’t say I ever had a hang over.
    I’m either drunk, or I’m fine. :rofl:

    The story above, the next day I help my mom and her husband move.
    I wasn’t even late. Jumped in the shower to wash off. Then threw the bedsheets and clothes in the shower to deal with later. Took that stuff to the laundromat after I got back home.
