    Very true...too bad when you are 40 Burry will be what, like 85?:p

    On a serious note, that is the way to do it. This way you are still young when they are grown, and you appreciate what you have when they are gone...:rolleyes:

    I choose Adtran over Cisco. They are a fraction of the price, have no licensing, and easy access. Arguable of which is faster. The Dell's are old...and we replace with Adtrans as they fail. Nowadays Dell's are just pretty Netgears! Very low end.

    My network is only a dozen years old. Went from 2 servers and a couple PC's on a switch to the global thing it is today. Most of it was done in a 5 year span... so technology and our department were evolving at rediculous speed. It has slowed dramatically the last few years after we completed all connections and systems... so now we just improve as old gear drops. I have a stack of Dell's I need to EBay!

    Just registered as a member after picking up my first Tacoma Monday. Figured I'd ask the Virginia area guys whether or not there are any mechanically inclined fellow Tacoma owners that could assist me in something.

    What do you guys think about the:

    TTHA-CK (3" lift kit with Bilstein 5100 Height adjustable Coilovers [$899.99]) vs. OME-TAK (OME Suspension lift kit [$734.99])

    On Toytec. I'm looking for great ride as I'll not be doing to much offroading. Less than 5 times a month usually, will be keeping stock wheels, and tires will stay skinny but become taller. Came from a 6" lifted Nissan Titan sooo... yeah, bit of a change. Thanks for any help you might have, searching hasn't helped me much at all because no one gives a straight-forward opinion about these similar kits.

    Welcome...:wave:

    To be completely honest...if you are going to spend that much on the Bilstein c/o lift, you might as well spend a couple hundred more an get the Icons. I had the 5100s (no coilovers) and they are no where near as nice of a ride as Icon, King, or Fox. The price difference isn't that much more. Buy once, cry once...:rolleyes:

    EDIT: Just about any of us in this thread, even joejoe, are capable of completing such a lift:thumbsup:
