1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

lol. I miss being close to sheltons and now that I can literally waste money on fireworks I'm FAR FAR FAR away in a baby town that's having a stupid drone show.

 

I'm in NM myself - lots of stands but not good places to go to blow stuff up. At least it's rained a bit. You up in CO?

 

Ship USPS enough in the last ~10 months and you're guaranteed to have a bad time. UPS and FedEx never give me issues.

 

My UPS dudes treat me well here - one of them has actually bought stuff from me

USPS throughout the nation though? Man, luck of the draw

 

I've never had a problem with usps, FedEx has delivered an empty crate with what should've been a transfer case to me though

 

AZ, I’d swing in down by Lordsburg on the 10

 

I just shipped 2 things through ups today. Never use usps because its like 2min father than ups lol

 

our UPS driver looks like a full Viking with a hawk and literally carries big heavy thing like they are nothing.

our fedex guy likes to put things in front of the garage instead of the front door for some reason.

usps - it's hit and miss but our latest drive likes us so tends to actually try -- though so does our little local post office; I got sparco's delivered from ireland and they asked me to come look at one of them before delivering so they could send it back damaged since the box looked like it fell into the ocean...turns out it was fine and we opened it at the office together for a good laugh.

 

This fucking tundra man... new water pump, new oem thermostat, new aisin fan clutch, new clean red coolant, a clean newish looking radiator, no leaks, no bubbles in the coolant while running, no leaks according to pressure test, passes block test

221°f cruising at 70mph 230°F cruising at 80

Everything I've done helps a little bit but there's an underlying issue I havnt found

 

ah yeah - you're WAY south.

I was just in Scottsdale in May for a hockey tourney -- was a 9 hour drive....ewwww and SOOOO HAWT.

 

Sounds like they swapped in an LT1

 

At first it was just an autozone thermostat that failed shut less than a block from stone cold and it would be boiling over... I though this one would be easy

 

I get ya but please don’t judge all of AZ based on Scottsdale! That’s more like @time623 ‘s crowd We’re A LOT more chill in Tucson

 

She ain't bubbling in the overflow tank either with the good thermostat right?

 

Isn't he in Tempe?

I've met some people from Scottsdale, a lot of racists there

An old friend from the Marine Corps is from there so I've been through the area with him

 

Nope, can drive around town all day and on the highway at 70 without going over 221 at the sensor needle smack dab in the middle of the guage

Turn off cruise so you're on and off the gas more erratically or cruise faster and it gets hot

 

@turboTacoMonkey Did you play at the Ice Den off Bell rd, in my few times recreationally skating (more like falling) as a kid that’s where we’d always go

 

I mean I can go from Chandler to Mesa to Tempe to Scottsdale in a total of like 6 minutes lol
But yeah Tempe is definitely better than Snobbsdale, especially if you’re not a millionaire

 

lol. I'll try. Most of my trips to AZ have been short and focused on something else...

Hockey in Scottsdale.

Bought my Miata from Ebay and picked it up in Pheonix? It was a day trip; suuuuuuucked bawls -- great price for some good parts on an easy car someone couldn't make run. lulz.

 

wtf lol
