Oregon and Washington BS thread

Look at the link. Its a clean link. The truck is bad ass

 

But for 24K???

 

A little steep, but its got a shit load of stuff on it

 

Ahh I see

I didn't notice the link at first. Looks stock and clean but yeah..24k is a bit high IMO

 

AT EASE THERE SERGEANT!! ...or how Marines pronounce it.."sar-ent"

 

coming up to rockfest this weekend

 

haha thats funny...very true

doesnt hurt to try!

I'm going to Pain in the Grass this weekend...

 

Ohh but it has a "heated washer fluid unit"!


why?



On another note, my truck is eating at my wallet again.

I have a stain on the rear seats that I need to clean off (isn't very visible, but needs some attention), so I decided it's past time to finally get seat covers. Went with the Coverking through Costco. Spendy, but I've had cheap covers in the Honda and hated it.

Next I jumped over and bought a Cobra 19 to replace my busted Midland. I found out that the Metra dash kits have a smaller pocket than the Scoshe dash kits, so I'm going to need a new dash kit, too

I get done with work, jump in the truck, and notice that I'm only getting audio out of my front left speaker At least it's not an amp. I've wanted a better HU... but wasn't going to do it NOW!

 

I have a head unit if you need one

 

I also have the stock HU sitting in a closet.

 

Silence is better than stock

Well, I'm going to try the reset button on the HU first, but if that fails, there's some things I want the new unit to do.

Musts
-easy iPod control with pretty quick searching
-front/sub preouts at 4V or better
-DIN-1. I need a place for that new CB, lol

Nice-to-haves
-bluetooth
-pandora controls
-i prefer rear USB

I've got the following contenders:

Pioneer MVH-P8300BT bluetooth, pandora. Not sure what I think about the 3" screen that plays divx, seems useless. Negs are front USB only and I need a PAC SWI steering wheel adapter
Pioneer DEH-P8300UB Pandora. Negs are front USB only, display is blue, and I need a PAC SWI steering wheel adapter
Kenwood KDC-X995 bluetooth, pandora, HD radio
JVC KD-A925BT. Front and rear USB, pandora, 5V preouts (all those others are 4V)

I'm thinking the Kenwood and JVC are contenders. My gut says the Kenwood will win out, but that JVC seems to have good offerings. I didn't think JVC was on par in the past, probably due to being fed misinformation, but I'm interested in giving them a new look.

 

Why you not giving Alpine any love? I've had multiple Alpines in my history of vehicles and one JVC. I would much prefer the Alpine. I have also witnessed systems of other brand in friends rigs - still want my Alpines.

 

Jason, with your Toytec kit, do you ever regret not getting the new full leaf pack in the rear? Do you have TSB springs already?

 

I saw a chick in the same exact color/tires as her taco yesterday on the off ramp for hwy99 sb and went 99e the same way I did! She didn't look over once though and her truck was higher than mine :/ so I'm assuming she had the full 3". I was getting a mouse for my lizard at the reptile store..

 

nope, cant say that I do, unless I dont remember that little road trip...haha so wasnt me!

 

haha mines better!...because IM in it!

 

Gold is in one hell of a bubble right now. Real late in the curve to safely invest, unless our economy and/or the world's collapses. In that case lead is a much better investment because people will give you gold just so you don't give them lead

These trucks are a pure expense lol. Not an investment at all.

 

I'll be joining you guys soon!


Hopefully by the end of September, if not sooner.

 

Nice! You're coming up here for school, right?

 

Yep.


I was hoping to start this semester but I couldn't get up there in time, so I'll be starting the Spring 2012 semester at the PCC Cascade campus.
