    I have a 4.88 in front, so was going to stick with that.

    but man let me math on how 4.56 will perform

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    With a manual and 35s it is quite nice I must say. Can cruise on the highway and not lose your mind or your MPG

    so I did the .69 5th gear...

    manual and 35's with good cruising and good offroad pep is exactly what I'm going for

    I find mine to be peppy, but every truck I have to compare to in my circle of friends is critically overloaded and mine is not. My truck feels quite stock as a driving experience until boost kicks in. 4.56 with 35s is essentially the same as 31s and 4.10

    Something similar happened in my tiny college town of Geneseo NY back in 2016.

    The Program

    That's the documentary; plenty of boarding schools like that still exist and are running in America

    It's crazy to see that many of the parents practically disowned their own children after the "confessions" their kids made (even though they were fabricated by the school)

    I saw that, and I was thinking the whole time: how about just parent instead of just dumping your kid when they drink a hard lemonade?

    I don't

    I don't dislike tattoos at all but most of the ones I see on other people are so stupid I never thought much about getting one.

    gotta watch out for those college kids

    But real talk, that kind of violence is too common and it's why we need to teach kids how embrace and work through emotional turmoil so they don't grow up to become abusive or worse.

    *raises hand*

    this ^^ also I just never really thought of or found something I feel I'd want put on me permanently. If such inspiration ever struck me, I wouldn't be opposed to doing it.

    Well, for starters you've got a shit ton of parents that didn't even want to be parents

    Then you've got people who thought they wanted to be parents, and find out it's hard

    Others just dont give a shit

    I mean tons of reasons

    Just ask James about the kids left at his work for ski lessons and how parents act like it's a freaking daycare; look at children in elementary school and after-school programs and whatnot, just ways to "dump their children onto someone else"

    Shit is way too common

    Well, sending your kid off to boarding school away from you and their home for most of their school years is probably a pretty good indication of the kind of parents that would do that.

    Real boarding school doesn't seem nearly as fun as anime told me it would be

    Oh yeah was more out of curiousity; some people are completely against them and others ink up their body like a fucking toddler with a set of crayons

    Then you've got the "my body is a temple"...bitch I saw you gobble down a glizzy so hard you should be censored

    Here is what I had for texas_ace's dyno from his turbo 5vz vs 2GR both with 4.56 and 35
    upload_2024-3-13_13-20-16.png
    here is vs 2GR with 4.88
    upload_2024-3-13_13-20-44.png

    really I guess an OE4.56 gearset would be pretty great

    I was waiting until I grew big and strong. I don't think that's happening at this point...
