    Probably tires. Plus FJ has more tq so it's easy to break them loose at slower speeds. But I don't think it needs sand bags, it's got a decent amount of weight on the back half.

    Yeah, and your news organizations gleefully try to prove how unenforceable the laws are so that she'll pass more.

    I don't care what side of the fence you're on, that mop is pretty epic.

    my sister and i had a huge fight last christmas and haven't spoken since. i didn't know if i was expected to get her a present this year, so i got her emotional intelligence for dummies, and a passive aggressive reminder pad. this is going to either be really good or really bad

    Sibling disagreements are not fun.
    Find the middle, sooner then later.

    we've never been close, every christmas usually ends in a fight. but this is the worst it's been. my parents had to cancel the first family trip since i was in high school because they don't trust us together

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    I had a big fight with my sister last Christmas as well. We have never been close either but the next time I saw her I figured I'd be the bigger person and start talking to her right away.
    Listen to Jeff. Family is family and you didn't get to choose who they are so you just need to deal with them. It's not worth making the rest of your family uncomfortable about the situation

    Hey, you put up with us and we put up with you and we all have Fun.
    So looking from this side you being happy is not making her happy?
    Do you know what makes her happy?
    But We only know this side.
    You need to try to look at what is not working for you and her.

    Did that make any, sorry all just thinking in black and white.....

    the biggest issue is that she moved out of the house when i was 13, and has treated me the same ever since. even down to still calling shotgun when we ride in the car. i always give in give in give in and then snap and it turns into a blow out

    Not to go full-Doctor Phil,but I would say it is worth it to try and sit down with her, outside of a family party, and tell her how her actions/words affect you and be responsive when/if she does the same. People can be ignorant to how they are and the subsequent consequences. I have a little sister and we aren't like super close like some siblings are, but I couldn't imagine having a troubled relationship with her.
