what do you mean??

but were down sizing big time in the home loan department cause were not getting shit for loans. i know alot of people are jumping ship already. but they just gave my team over time (special project, if we dont finish our job by the end of the year we lose our buisness license, then there is no more bank of america) so they need the team im on to stay alive. but they usually fire the contractors and bring the perm associates down to take our position since they are already perm.

but overtime is time and a half so im just going to work 60-66 hours a week, bring home giant checks and save them up incase i do get laid off then i will have something to fall back on till i find another job.

 

^ that's a smart guy.

 

Good to hear you are still alive, and I'll cross my fingers for ya

 

Well let me know, even if its temp. my parts manager is looking for warehouse workers and parts delivery driver w/ clean dmv.

 

how clean, one speeding ticket six months ago...

 

Yeah I try haha..

Thanks for the support man

Dude thanks so much for the offer, that means a lot!

And my dmv isn't that clean... I have 1 speeding ticket like over a year ago

 

Ooh!

 

Got some BFG all terrains in a 315/75/16 FINALLY guys! They are on the truck as a temp to see how the trucks 2.7L handles with the 4.56 gears. I will get pics up soon. The truck seems to do just fine around town, by just fine I mean how it was when I had the 255's and 4.10's. The overall extra weight is about 60-80 pounds with the wheels/tires I am looking to get.

Driving up to Flag tomorrow because with that uphill stretch to sunset point, seems like a great test for the truck. Hopefully the diff will not grenade on me and I make it home safely. Truck looks freaking AMAZING with the 315's and I will get pics up for comparison tomorrow sometime!

I am thinking now that I will keep the 255's as well for great gas mileage and when I feel like being "winning" I will throw on the spare set. In any case, point of the story.......my truck and 315's look so good haha

 

A turbo will solve all your power problems

 

Prefer supercharger due to the driving style I have! lol

I love keeping rpm's down and getting my power over a period of time rather than instant.....I know it is contrary to what I have/had/believed in the past but with a Tacoma and what its use is for, much better off with a supercharger IMHO


If you look at my sig pic haha the 315's are honestly basically 2x as wide bad ass!

 

You can run twins and get the power down low also, just say'n lol. Superchargers are fine too (hell I want the TRD on mine) but they aren't as efficient

 

Yes and no. I meant turbo's FTMFW but my manager runs a TRD with some tweeks, while having fun driving he is getting about 18-19 mpg...for always being on the gas and enjoying the supercharger and power than really is not all that bad. His wheels and tires on currently on my truck, 315's, stock intake with a TRD filter, injectors IIRC getting that kind of mileage is amazing! I mean getting 24 with a 4 cylinder and knowing how he drives his truck....i am tempted getting rid of mine for a supercharger V6 because I know for a fact that I am no where near as skinny pedal happy as he is on a very conservative day!

Ya TT would be nice, but in a 4 banger...there is no where near enough exhaust gas to get those puppies turning and way more money invested than EVER worth it! I honestly do not think I will ever supercharge my truck. Knowing what I know now, the results for the penny is not worth it to me, I would rather spend that money towards suspension any day of the week. Sure they can hit 120 mph quicker than I ever will....but can they take some nasty terrain at 60-80 mph? maybe if they have the best of both worlds but most likely not.

end result for me: my suspension and handling is way more important than my 0-60 time. that is all my preference and i know many people feel the opposite.

EDIT: they arent as efficient as you build the system to be lol

 

Dude... how can he possibly be getting 18-19mpg with those tires and a supercharger? I couldn't even get that STOCK, hell I'm lucky to pull 13's now. Yea I'm in the skinny a lot, but also mostly highway.

 

IDK Jake, I drove his truck today and looked at his gas gauge/tank, then looked at his ultra-gauge and asked him after looking at both a few questions....they all match up to the numbers, I was shocked lol

Sorry I totally FORGOT he is also at 4.56 gears

 

I dunno still sounds sketch... those are all performance mods not eco mods. Hell I think my ultragauge says I'm doing like 99mpg right now because I never set it... lol

 

He only bought it for fuel trims and consumption. Fuel trims acted up and the numbers were crazy, what the truck actually was reading. Now he fixed some fuel issues he was having and fuel trims looking normal and gas was looking normal, do not know what to say amigo...looks good from all reading stand points!

 

By chance are you an IT nerd? (yes, i'm recruiting )

 

Sorry Curt lol

 

What time you driving up to Flag today Oli? I'm right here off the 69 and 17 junction. Visiting family. I'm gonna do my locker anytime mod and go test it out. terrain out here is the same as the front way to crown king. actually, its part of the front way.. lol let me know and maybe we can make a little run around the backroads.
