    Yeah it didnt make a difference really. The problem is the shitty computer on the tranny and of course the engine having no balls. Made the miada they had there look like a damn racecar.

    Oh. I test drove one a few years back and the traction control made a huge difference. The sales guy was not pleased.

    So I made a new best friend today! This year I refused to pay an arm and a leg to park in the structure at unm so I decided to park at south lot. I've been super nervous about my truck parked there all day. Today when I got back to my truck the security guard was parked blocking me in. I thoughti was getting a ticket but instead, he told me he was guarding it hahahaha. I told him my schedule so now he'll find my truck and hang out there. So thank you Paul the security guard for keeping my truck and belongings safe! hahahaha

    Hey, guys. What do you think I should pay for this 89 celica, MAX?http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/cto/3207031558.html


    Bad:
    Interior is torn to shreds (I don't care), sunroof controls don't work, antenna needs to be replaced if I want to listen to FM, dents in a couple places (don't care), paint is crap (don't care), cv boot is torn (but joint is not clicking), it has 165k miles.


    Good:
    Engine sounds great, exhaust looks new, clutch feels fine, it's a 5 speed 2.0l 4 banger :D lol

    Whats up guys.. I'd like to get a little more involved in the local scene here as soon as my 04 gets a little more up to standards.. I got it in June, just got tint yesterday and am installing my first ever audio set-up tomorrow... it's a pretty slow process but would love to get more involved

    So im thinking I want to go on the 22nd. I wont do all the trails but simply race around the ones that I will get hung up on. You guys bob and dove tail your rigs but I extended mine a foot for the rear spares. And I really wasnt to try out the new rear end. I am gpoing to finish it next weekend. O and here is a motivation pic i took tonight. Anyone notice what i'm missing?????? Damn UPS only dropped off one leaf and said the other one was still on the truck for delivery, WTF??? I guess I have a lazy UPS driver.

    Did not :spy: Thanks for the support buddy.

    Ya definitely come out on the 22nd. It is an off-road meet so I don't know how well the xrunner would hold up?? But you can ride with someone.

    Come on out and see what it is all about.

    Dude Dezert.........you'll be able to clear pretty much every trail that there is out there. You'll be fine. And White Toy.......I've seen Dezert's rig. It is freaking sweet.
