Oregon and Washington BS thread

He he. I vote Bruce Willis but I'd pay to see Seth Rogan or John Goodman take a stab at a portly batperson too.

 

Went to tsf yesterday to test it out. did fb5, 3/4 of the rock garden after, and also did a small section on crushers.

 

Holy shit Gary! What numbers are you pullin travel wise? How is the rear?

 

is it even exciting any more? "Hey guys watch out for this rock" Gary's response "what rock? Oh you poor little IFS kids."

 

i can pull 48" without pulling a tire

 

If you can tolerate 8.5-9 months of rain a year...summer is amazing here, and we don't really get much (if ANY, just a hit or miss) snow in PDX-Metro area... I personally love Oregon and we have the Trail Blazers (NBA Team) to get us through the winters...Oregon is great for all outdoors, and Portland is pretty cool and quirky city..housing seems to be 'booming' lately, atleast in Wilsonville houses are being built like crazy and prices go up every time one is done so that's a good sign

 

lol, I didnt have a problem at all on the bottom of fb5. i was in 2wd half way up. ill be attemping more of crushers and airplane hill next time.

 

Rain doesn't bother me but we rarely get it down here so I'm honestly not sure. What's the worst time of the year, we want to see it at its worst. My girlfriend is pretty much the model citizen of portland from what I've read and I prefer outdoors stuff.

 

Yea! Well...dammit I'm jealous. I managed to put yet another dent in my bed this morning.

 

A portly batperson

Gary, you magnificent bastard. That looks incredible, better than most of the SAS swaps I've seen on here. You are on par with Demello's SAS now.

 

Since we're on the topic of batman.

 

Got my brakes sorted out. I guess my front calipers were pretty corroded so I got them replaced. Everything all good now. Tire factory in Tualatin is really great if anyone is wondering.

What kind of battery do you guys prefer. I think mines starting to go so gonna pick up a new one sometime this week.
I don't have any extra electronic stuff on my car. Main thing is starts when it's cold since I go up to the mountain alot

 

Anyone have an idea of what a Tacoma bed off craiglist or from a pull yard might go for? Haven't find any yet, but my bed is getting so raisined and then I go and look at all the clean trucks on here...

 

Shite man, they're spendy. The NEW ones go for $4k+, and used go for $2k+

Found a few here:

***Also found this one: http://bend.craigslist.org/pts/3945289263.html

 

Yea, I finally found a couple. $1700 was the lowest I found. Think I'll be rocking a chicks dig body damage sticker until I flatbed the sumabitch.

Getting read to place an order with OTRATTW. So far I need: front lights, roof light bar, rear light, siren, line lock, winch power and in/out switches. Contemplating rock light and dust light switches because those will happening at some point. May as well only pay for shipping once.

Saw this and laughed out loud. It would be perfect for my HID in the back.

 

Happy birthday Ben!
