    I impressed a few people a couple weeks ago squeezing it around some trails! There are times you say fuck it shit's gonna happen, and other times a little less skinny pedal keeps from tearing shit up too bad. I am jelly of the cooler though!

    And as far as the Tacoma...

    Needs a new y pipe. My doug thorley y pipe broke while driving on the highway to my bachelor party. One of the welds holding an exhaust hanger to the cat broke off and ripped a hole in the exhaust. There's now a piece of sheetmetal hose clamped over the hole.

    Needs new headlights. They were cloudy so I wet sander and polished them. Then today noticed a crack going all the way across one of them. Also I've been dealing with ddm tuning trying to get some new bulbs. My old hid kit couldnt be warrantied because it never failed completely. It would just shut off every time I hit a bump. They talked me into upgrading to the ultra hid kit and right out of the box one balast won't work. It's now been a month and a half since I ordered them and I still don't have working headlights.

    Needs new leaf springs. Might go the Chevy 63's route. We'll see.

    Congrats on getting married! I really wish I would have been able to attend :(

    Sucks to hear about the headlights and exhaust though. What happened with the leaf springs? Just completely rusted? I don't miss that Jersey salt at all.

    Was looking at the ATV’s in the shed earlier this week Josh. You got Bonnie wanting to get back into riding again with that wedding entrance. ;)
    Time to get them out of their cocoons and back into shape. :cool:

    Thanks Davis!

    The leaf springs are just worn out. About 6 years old, lots of weight in the bed, and shackle flip.

    That would be fun to go riding with you guys!

    Ant & Hunter came by to hang out yesterday afternoon- we peeked in the shed at the 4 & 3 wheelers.
    Been on my mind a lot more lately.
