    That answers that! I figured that could've been the case, but you never know...it seems we get a lot of eyes here.

    Another forum I'm on has at least one uber-PC mod that merely typing 'church' in a comment will get your post hidden. I haven't seen anyone on TW that's that trigger happy...yet.

    I leave you guys alone for just a couple days... :rofl:

    I took a photo inspired by @Thatbassguy last week. The dash indicators on the right were never activated in 30 years. Itching to try them out late spring and into the summer.

    We really shouldn't be left unsupervised.

    Gotta get out and hit some trails, too.
    Scratch that itch.

    Well... the head light issue IS a relay. However, it is a corroded relay that broke a tab off. Looks like no easy fix other than to replace-for money...- the harness. Only a couple hundred. Alls good. Low beam me for a while. Two trips to Arkansas has been hard on my wiring. Don't think KenTWuky25 is going to be any drier (or fewer water crossings...) I see the wisdom of the desert oh mighty @Supr4Lo!

    Like a grammar Nazi? :anonymous:

    Except in the "roast my Tacoma threads"

    :nuclear:

    I could name fingers and point names at certain higher ups here, but then I would get another 30 day vacation (probably) :D

    Just cut the wiring and splice a new relay in. Voila.

    What rubs me.... is not using proper grammer


    Wrong, not using proper grammer is being the douche. I like @CygnusX191 being the resident grammer Nazi. (so I don't have to)

    just chop it off and put on a new one. most are just soldered on or just use the slide on terminals. shouldn't be that hard to replace without doing the whole harness.

    That's implying you're better than the person using improper grammar. Aint no 1 person better than another.
    Not knowing that person's story.
    Foreign? Special needs? Could care less?
    Regardless, if the message was understood, I don't see where the problem is.

    Ya know, you're right. I don't know your story. The one time we met you seemed to be a natjve, not a foreigner, and if you do have special needs, you hid it well.

    Also, it's "couldn't care less".

    Well grammer and speling arn't necessarily indicative of intelligince. Sumtimes its just a tipe-o.

    :D I'll remember that the next time I speak at the White House.
    Edit: Oops ^ questionably political.
    I meant, speaking in front of a large group.
