San Diego BS Thread.

I have been thinking of doing the same. How much does a roll cost

 

What's wrong with red?
Long travel 1st gen is a lot of fun! @MadTaco461 ruined my life giving me a ride in his truck Kidding, it was waaaaaay too much fun though

^ I've never done a vinyl wrap, but have done lots of dirt bike graphics and have been patiently waiting to wrap my own truck. I have a heat gun that has yet to be used, I'd be happy to lend a hand.

A full roll costs ~600 but you only need a few yards for the roof (maybe 50-100 bucks depending on where you get it)

 

I just realized it's a 4runner roof. Pretty challenging for amateurs because of the large surface area to cover. Gotta stretch it like crazy. Show is a pic of your roof when you get a chance. @chilidogrc

 

I got a 5x9 roll for $60

 

Damn!

 

I'm coo with red. Ive had a couple red trucks in the past. A Ram and a Ranger. I'm just not feeling roja. There can be only 1 cherry popper. And that's you my good man. Haha. Ideally I would like white or silver. I've learned my pin stripe lesson. Haha

 

But the blue looked so good!
Cherry Popper will be in someone else's hands in the next few months. Going 4x4 2nd gen taco. Just need to clean her up and make her ready for the next enthusiast.

White or silver would be the best for the hell you put your truck through! Tree branch scratches up and down both sides. Where's the build thread for the new rig?! Sub'd

 

I'm actually in talks with this guy. I would have to fly out and trailer back.

That's a loooooong trip, looks like a cool truck though. haven't found anything better you like closer? I'll keep my eyes peeled. Regular cab only, no xtra cab?

 

If he'll take 1500 ill do it. I have friends from the Navy sprinkled along the way so ill make a fun reunion trip out of it. I've found a few single cabs closer but they either sell quick and also involve a road trip or the mileage isn't right for the asking price. Yeah, man, I want that single cab. Ill stand fast and wait for the right situation.

 

Oh nice! That would make for a fun trip. I'll keep my eyes open if something solid pops up.

 

Thanks, brother. I've also been looking at Tijuana Craigslist. Mostly for fun. Check this scammer out:

* beautiful truck though

 

Got pulled over by two muscle heads yesterday infront of mission valley mall. I was going 75 in the fast lane while they were doing about 70. I passed them and they decided to hold back before they sped up on my ass lit me up and pulled me over. I didn't have any anxiety about getting pulled over because I knew I wasn't doing anything wrong. Had my license registration and insurance ready before they got to my passenger window. The officer asked where's the emergency and if I knew why he stoped me and I said no. He left and came back after a short while and asked me what the speed limit on the freeway was. I said 65 then he asked me why he had to do 80mph to catch up to me. This is when my smartass came out of me as I responded "obviously you would have to to 80 to catch up to someone infront of you but that doesn't negate the fact that my speedometer was at 75 and my cruise control was set" he then responds oh excuse me 5 mph less then I said that's still speeding and I can give you a ticket. Then my smart ass said. "Oh yeah I'm sure my dad would LOVE to come represent me to dispute a ticket for a speed that was practical for the set driving conditions as a Prius passed us most likely doing 80+. I get they have a job to do as a emt I know how what it's like having a professional job and a unifor that stands out. But seriously? end rant. Thanks for your service every other day

 

jk jk..... I've been in that situation too- fucking keeping up with the traffic but they pull you over and give you shit as a prius passes going 80+

 

I said that even though my parents have been divorced for 12 years and I haven't spoken to him for at least 8 years now lol but yeah a Prius passed us in the fast lane when I was getting pulled over

 

I don't like it. I would go with the 22RE engine if you could. That model has the IFS, so it is limited in travel. Even though the frame has been coated, the rest of the truck parts and cab are going to be rusty. Save the shipping cost for a west coast truck.

 

Even if it had the RE I would still swap the engine. But you're right about the rust. He doesn't wanna budge off his price so no deal anyhow. Sell me yours.
