1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

There's a NV/CA one on FB for only 6500

Access cab 4x4 manual, but 2.7

Clean title and all with what 220k miles

Love the teal looking color but has a weird stripe on the tailgate

 

And off we goooo

 

Your new one bothers me. I'm not used to you having a Tacoma that doesn't have heavy body damage. It's not very Zane of you.

 

@eon_blue

I guess you guys soaked up all the rain because it's been pretty dry out here

Right around the corner we're getting hit with snow though

 

Word is the next atmospheric river system is going to arrive mid-Feb, around the 17th...hopefully be another biggun

 

Didn't know we were havibg an LT Meat

 

You can have mine for 7 obo

 

Nah, I'm set, next one is gonna be a second gen.

 

jesus christ if companies could not drag out the interview process over 6-8 weeks that would be great. 2 weeks between each round of interviews/feedback? c'mon that's some horseshit

 

Oh that’s interesting, I always had you figured for a diehard first gen guy. What spec would you be looking for - single cab 5 speed?

 

at a glance i almost thought that photo was taken near denver

 

So multiple companies pulling that shit huh? That's ridiculous

 

damn you too?

I've been contemplating a 4.0/6 speed as a platform

 

It’s ridiculous. I’ve heard of some jobs with up to 25 rounds of interviews! That doesn’t help anybody. My I reviews have progressed pretty quickly - only a week separated them, although it’s not exactly life changing money. I’m expecting to hear back today or early next week though.

 

You've seen how close the mountains are

Tons of awesome and beautiful trails here nearby

I never got stopped but they do have tire chain checkpoints (just making sure you got them with you) if you head up there before Shaver Lake

 

You guys interview?

 

shhhhhhhhhh

 

The consensus seems to be that the auto is better for the V6 second gen’s. The ratios are geared more towards the highway than the trail. IMO the sweet spot would be the second gen single cabs, since they still have the old 5 speed with the stronger IFS and improved version of the 3RZ, and are still light and small enough to be good woods trucks.

 

Not like I’ve been hitting them since I switched to dad mobile

 

My V6 DCLB does fine soooo
