    The ones I have are so comfortable, It's feels like walking around in socks on sand. I like to drive with them on the sim but they don't work as good as the Vans or Sambas for grip.

    Oh for sure, I wouldn't wear them at all for anything important

    Just perfect for going to the park, running some errands, etc

    That's the fucking worst when your shoes don't have grip and you go to switch gears and inadvertently do a huge clutch dump in the middle of an intersection

    Happens to me more in the 4runner than on the Tacoma, pedal is probably more wore down. I put some sandpaper grip tape on them but that lasted all of 2 days, just have to be careful especially if raining and my shoes are wet.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    You can buy the clutch/brake pedal pad replacements at Oriellys in the HELP! section for like $6

    Sorry those dogs need to be put down. As a dog person, the reality is they can be extremely dangerous if raised wrong and clearly those are. Better to put em down than waiting for national headlines when they kill a kid.

    I think PITA should be the ones to hand catch them though, it's only right.

    They prefer to snatch well-cared for pets out of people's backyards in the name of "freeing" them from captivity*



    * I realize this is an exaggerated half-truth

    Our neighborhood is having a big problem with mail/package theft, worse than where we were before. I think it's because we are more isolated now in a smaller gated neighborhood and they know any police response, if it happens at all will take long enough for them to get away.

    The whole neighborhood has so many cameras you'd think there was a sitcom or Truman Show type thing going on, but of course cameras don't deter anyone anymore. Just gives you proof that your shit got stolen and not lost. Need to legalize booby traps

    This is how you deal with the problem.
