    So, I thought I would never do a build thread, but now I have a reason to do it. My story is an interesting one and you might know it. You know, that truck that was taken out by a huge Sycamore tree in Turkey Creek, AZ with bunch of TW friends on Saturday, November 7, 2015 at about 7:30am.

    The question has been answered. Does a tree in the forest make noise? Yes it does, and it's a loud and scary one.
    My 2006 OR Prerunner. Purchased July 10, 2006.
    January 2007!

    Moving back from Indiana to Arizona. June 2009.

    East 2010. Putting up chairs for the Mormon East Pagent in Mesa, Arizona.

    July 2011. Got hitched!

    November 2011. Hit 100k

    Thanks Sherlock! I have been busy all day and haven't had a chance to fix them. At this rate, it won't be until tomorrow night until I can get to it. Have someone coming over to help me swap tires. Bfg ko2 on the old truck to the new truck.
