    :( Your carb transaction is turning into quite the "CHARLIE FOXTROT!" Hope it works out and you get the right carb, in working order! :)
    :thumbsup: Best wishes for your patience (weak spot for me sometimes--I'm getting better, but wife would disagree :eek:) -- and a successful result next week.
    :laugh: I like the way you think! :D

    :wave:Congrats on the new Taco and Welcome
    ... although not officially qualified for this thread...I hang out because I like the way these folks think...hoping it'll rub off on me a little! :)
    ... and I guess I'll be hearing that "oh, grow up"! for at least another 15 years! :thumbsup::laughing:

    Thanks everyone!! I think I need to change the batteries on my wireless keyboard - looking back at my post it seems that my space bar is not working all the time...and what the hell is "wen't?" Must be the stress.

    Welcome to the forum, Paul and I look forward to seeing pics of the new Taco. I found my way here after buying a 2004 Taco last summer with only 27,000 miles on it. You're going to love the truck!!

    It's a great bunch of people who even tolerate some of us youngsters and don't yell at us too much.

    Thanks 6, I really like this man he is always the first to help out new folks at our field events. He's a non smoker and always eats good stuff. He's the last I would say out of our pals to get something like this. Really a kick in the ball's to think he might not make it. Hope you get the Job. The young need someone with pride, to look up to. Fingers crossed for you.... Jim:)

    Beware of the mod bug. It is pretty easy to do a lot of custom modifications to make the Tacoma mone comfortable and suit your needs. :anonymous:

    :wave: Morning Folks!

    Ken, I remember those "snow is coming clean out the supermarket scenes" as a kid growing up in Richmond, VA. Living here now, it kind of makes me smile.:) Enjoy the snow and I hope it's not so much that it messes things up!

    Continuing prayers, Jim. :pray::pray:

    however, being this old, I can't remember if I've already posted here before:confused: :D


    I LOVE to work [exterminator self employed 9 years], and I bow hunt for deer here in Georgia. Do I 'need' 4 wheel drive? YES, and I love having it.

    Hi Alan, Glad you found us. My dad was born in Macon so I have 50% Ga blood. Get up there to quail hunt when I can. There is something timeless about walking a good bird dog in the backwoods. Jim:)
