FTFY

 

Que? Blind spots are no worse in the Ferd than they were with the Tacoma. The chin dragger I'll give you. That air deflector thing up front hangs down pretty low. BUT, it least is doesn't drag it's ass every time I put a couple hundred lbs in the bed...

A couple hundred pounds in the back of my truck is like that poor pooch at 1:07 that can't scoot along...

 

How many cars did you back into with the Tacoma?

Definitely give you the butt scooting, though. 500lbs in the back and the Tacoma gets that baja stance. 500lbs in the back of the Dodge and it just smooths out the ride a little.

 

Nothing to do with blind spots on that one. Unfortunately, that falls squarely on operator error

 

Just remove the air dam up front. Things just gets in the way.

 

Yeah... I probably should just yank it off and be done with it. I don't mind it deflecting some of the road salt away from the front end though.

 

It comes off with two bolts, When I have a decent road trip or such I just put it back on. Can be done in <5 min. I didnt put it back on for the winter, but may now after you saying that.

 

I may or may not be removing it at every oil change

 

Yes, I know I am an ass, but after a long day and a ton of traffic this made my day. Rt 93 traffic was horrible so I jumped off and on all the way down to the rotary by Shea rink. The traffic in the rink direction was awful so I went up onto 93 just before the split. I had my directional on to merge when a pickup three spots up decided he would use both lanes so no one could pass him, mind you there was alot of merge lane left. This is one of the things that drive me nuts when people block traffic. I drove up behind him and then merged, then I drove up next to him. He wanted the merge lane well now he had it. He was screaming and swearing as I drove away. I was laughing to the point I was crying. In the end he was an ass also cause he drove down and cut off everyone headed to Rt3.

 

Ah I see, I let the monkeys at Westborough Ford take care of that one for me. For $40 with a fluid top off and tire rotation, I can't really lose. Granted they can mess it up, but it's easy enough to mark my tires, oil filter, and ensure it looks like new oil in the truck.

 

A kid I work with just got a clutch done on his evo... I couldn't believe it when he was telling me the time and price involved......

 

But was good is that if you have no brakes?

 

Thanks @MikeyMcFly for the bumper and putting it on. Eleanor's face is back in action

 

Looks perfect. Glad at least some part of my truck will live on!

Side note.

I have a quart and a half of Toyota WS if anyone wants it. The half quart has a pump in it and the full quart is well, full and unopened.

 

I think I have some also if someone is looking for more. I'll get a count of what I have if someone wants it.

 

What's WS? Is that the transmission fluid?

 

Yes.

 

Brakes are overrated!

Lately, I've been doing the same. The dealerships change the oil cheaper way than I can even buy the stuff on my own. I did my own tonight though, I wanted it done before the trip and I put new rear pads on also.

 

Mikey, i'll take it at your leisure
