1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah it's awful how fast it deteriorates a person into a shell of a human being once it's in full swing. We have plans to go up there to OR to visit my dad and grandparents later this month, was hoping he and my grandma could meet River (she still will). But with how my grandfather's condition was, it wouldn't have been much of an introduction anyway.

Sofia got to meet him a couple times before it got really bad this past year.

I told my dad I would come up before our planned trip for the service but I guess my grandfather told him awhile back that he didn't want one (sounds just like him tbh). So they're going to wait on doing any kind of memorial service until after my grandmother passes and they are interred together at the VA cemetery in Missouri

I wonder what houses in Iceland cost

 

Bro I could buy a decade old Maserati

 

better set aside another 13k for repairs lol

 

I can't take any Maserati seriously, every time I see one I just assume the owner bought it for 10k instead of an old Camry that they should've got

 

don't do that to yourself

 

This came up for sale nearby. Lots of recent maintenance. Unfortunately he said no trades, and I feel too deep into fixing my truck to immediately sell it and try to flip it for this.

 

sorry to hear that, it's bittersweet but I'm glad that he and the rest of the family didn't have to suffer for many years

 

oh man I forgot about this 90s movie...what are these feels

Why do you get your shit wadded up over trades/no trades

Bring cash my dude or don't inquire

 

I'd say if he doesn't want to front the cash until the tacoma is sold, get a personal loan, but the guy has very little to no credit

 

Just not inquire at all about any vehicle

Most people want to sell their shit; could be to make room in the driveway, kid went off to college, money for another project whether home or personal, maybe saving up for a house, tons of reasons

But I wouldn't even dare have a recently serviced, clean 100 series and trade for a shitbox truck that the owner is too afraid of himself

 

We are all with you my friend!

 

Speaking of expenses

 

I like that one. Slap an Eaton eLocker with 4-pinion front diff and have one hell of a triple locked ride.

 

Our friends in CA might see a decrease in traffic this weekend. Everybody is coming here for the eclipse.

 

Texas too

 

I didn’t enquire, it just said no trades in the ad. I’m not sure how many people are just rolling around with 8 grand in cash though. I’m not Bobby Shmurda over here.

 

It's called a bank, a lot of people would have more than that set aside but it doesn't necessarily mean it's just to purchase a vehicle

 

I wonder how many Californians will buy land on their visit to see the eclipse? Hey, land is cheap let's buy some. I do like all of the good food that the Californians are bringing to the area.
