    Yeah. I had a long commute when I bought the prerunner. I work in san ramon now and I had wanted a 4x4 for a long time. I put the prerunner back to stock and traded in for a 4x4.

    I like the area. I live in pleasanton so san ramon is a short commute for me. I was working in hayward for a long time and fought traffic for two and half hours a day. You truck looks good in your sig pic. Can wait for mine ot be that high up.

    Yea hayward is tough. My dad has been doing SR to silicon valley for 15 years now. idk how he does it.

    thanks. It's actually come down a bout an inch. I took the top plate spacer out so I'm just running OME 885x coils on billy 5100's. Rear is an AAL. It's a short term lift till I can afford a nice midtravel setup

    Yea he actually took a break from work. Company was restructuring and he told them he was leaving. haha. So he's enjoyed being the homemaker. My mom has the luxury of working in SR. right across the freeway from my parents place. He was doing SR to milpitas for a while, but the past few years have all been either San Jose or Santa Clara. He's not in a rush to get back to work haha

    He actually sold his Porsche and bought a 2012 Acura TSX wagon. guess it gets good mileage. haha I give him shit for it tho.

    Thank you for the invite. I have a charity bike race that day in napa. I'm still looking for sponsers.

    I was going to get BAMF sliders but i decided i couldnt wait to see if he does a black friday sale. I found some trail gear sliders on Craigslist for a good deal. Never installed. I'm picking them up tomorrow.
