1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

much fluff

 

Now that you're done with that side you're ready to do that side again

 

For real, haven't done the other yet and I just decided to stop on that one. It just keeps coming off, I sincerely believe the stuff just regenerates automatically

 

Theo got a little photoshoot; crazy how good he was throughout the whole thing

Dude is just chill in general so that was good

 

What the biggest lift I can get and what size tires should I run. Also where's the best place to get raptor lights... (Not being serious)

 

You guys vehicle shopping huh?

 

Done shopping now

 

Oh nice, you guys buy something new?

 

Yeah the black 4Runner in the picture

 

Nice!

Congrats; you know Jaxon is gonna give you shit for buying a black vehicle

 

Ha, he can all he wants. He doesn't have to drive it. Now if I can just get my uppers back from @BartMaster1234

 

wrenched for the longest I have in 6+ months today lol. got the TREs, LBJ, LCA bushings, and everything back in place on the pass side. just need to do UBJ and add limit strap and this side is "done"

 

And now you're sore with busted knuckles

 

my hip is definitely killing me

I've gone soft

 

@Ozark_RegCab are you taking any actions to prepare for the total eclipse on the 8th?

I suspect the following:

1) Fill your vehicles with fuel in case there is a shortage from 2.4 million visitors. Let's exhaust the fuel supply and create a shortage on Sunday the 7th. Also, expect fuel prices to hit record highs earlier in the week due to the shortages from locals hoarding fuel.

2) Buy extra amounts of milk. Fuel shortages and traffic congestion from the Eclipse watchers will impact delivery.

3) Buy extra amounts of bread to keep on hand after the eclipse watchers raid the grocery stores.

4) Wrecks from the extra traffic may knock down power poles and cause power outages. Buy a generator to keep your aquarium running if you lose power.

5) Stock up on toilet paper. Just because you should do your part to create another shortage.

6) Eat like a royal when traveling during that time. You don't want eating shellfish to give you the shits that would require more of #5.

7) Fill your bathtub with water in the event the power outage causes water systems to fail. You need a place to hoard water -- just because you can.

 

Is this legit?

 

I've been seeing a lot of articles talking about the massive tourism expected in areas along the eclipse path....I don't get it but apparently it's a big enough thing to warrant some small towns that never see much tourism to become flooded with people, which will cause problems in those areas

Read somewhere that they're actually deploying the National Guard to some areas for it

 

That's gonna be a shit ton of coffee orders for @Ozark_RegCab to fulfill

 

The eclipse is. I just made the other shit up from watching people during other non-events that cause panic.

 

Test drove a like 2014 2 door wrangler standard trans earlier... I really liked it

Talk me out of it
