    And as the third example of falling apart as you age...recently I had to go to the chiropractor because I had my teeth cleaned. 45 minutes with my neck turned to the same side and I was cooked.

    From personal experience as I'm a couple of days older than most of the people on here when you get out of bed in the morning, And you hear the poppin and squeaken, it's not the floor.

    The Jeep that I fixed the light on was back multiple times for other stuff. It’s back again and another tech tells me that it needs lifters.

    Jeeps are garbage.

    and we have a GX550 that might have a broken timing chain. :eek:

    Yes. Not sure how many miles. It got towed as a crank no start. Chain is broken. Engine has to come out.

    I'm not sure. I haven't looked into the technical aspects of those yet. I've only changed the oil on two of them.

    @CTSpruceMica

    yes, but not much riding in 2024 as I'm a caregiver for my wife.

    Things are looking up for 2025, but life got in the way.

    Juggling a lot of plates in the air right now but things should be better by March-April

    On my way back from a quick work trip to Dallas. Saw some cool Toyotas around.

    Typing this from 32,000 feet. Eager to get back on the ground, and back home to the family.
