    That's what used car dealers do, they find a car they like, get it for as little as possible, then turn around and try to double sometimes triple their investment

    I get that's what used dealers do... Issue is the guy represented himself as a wheeler who was looking for a rig and not as a dealer. Either way he'd have gotten fucked but one way he'd have at least known what to expect.

    I dont think Floor understands the value of integrity like you are implying. I know what you mean keith and if i could find some time i would def go screw with the guy, but cant sadly. but it just goes to show, that unless its a personal friend, dont believe nor instill trust unto them and try to "do right" by them to help them out. even watch out sometimes if it is a friend this day in age.

    Yep, he still has it. He was waiting to see if there was a solid interest before he bought out the lease. Let me know.

    Been a while guys but anybody know a good shop in Alabama or nearby that does good diff/gear work. I'm trying to replace my front diff bearing with the bushing from East Coast Gear supply and was wondering if anyone had suggestions?

    He is located here in Marion. He is still driving it daily, so if he wants to come take a look at it we will have to get the timing right. I will try and get some pictures ASAP.

    Hey guys, I am looking at the electrical upgrade system to design and build for the 2nd gen. If anyone has a 2nd gen Tacoma and wants to consider this upgrade, let me know. I need a vehicle to make all of my measurements and calculations on. If you want the Stage 1 kit, I will install it free of charge. It will cost you nothing. Not even parts. I will just need your truck for about a week. If you want the high output alternator (Stage 2 system) then you will need to pay for the alternator however. If you are interested then let me know.
