    #wifey wanted me to point out that the main purpose of this piece was/is to hold our tall booze bottles. Our "bar" has been this hutch (which also came from CL, but like 10 years ago):

    ...and the taller bottles just don't fit on the shelves. She's currently setting things up in the new buffet how she wants it, so things are mid-design for her right now.
    I snagged a couple pics anyway. Here's the current center of the new buffet:

    LC Engineering header, URD short throw shifter, and Injen Intake. Its no S/C, but it definitely hasn't hurt performance. Wheels, tires, and lift next on the list.

    That's great! Keep it up, and you'll spend less in interest, which means more mods!

    My plan is to have mine paid off in 18 months. It's a 4-year loan, at only 2.99%, but it's also the only non-mortgage debt we have. I've got $1k payment scheduled each month to make it happen.

    Felt bad doing it but I couldn't justify a nice gas powered rig. Especially since it would be over kill. So.. I bought a 1600 psi electric pressure washer strictly for the ole girl. No more getting hosed at the self serve. Washed the truck down, put a coat of jet seal on the headlights, and detailed the inside. Also purchased 280lbs of tube sand for the back. Afterwards washed the ole ladies corolla and while ding both vehicles created an ice rink in the drive way.

    Installed my rci gas tank skid plate on my taco. Hopefully some other asshole won’t drill my gas tank again. Well at least not on the side where it’s still accessible.

    Led pod fog light inserts, kn cold air intake, Bilstein 5100 with 2 inch coil combo and progressive AAL. Touchscreen pioneer stereo and infinity components with 2 kicker comp r10's and jones turbine exhaust
    trying to decide to either go with a single AAL or a Progressive AAL, I don't do much offroading except maybe the occasional mine road or gas well trails, I know for sure I'm getting headstrong 2" coils and 5100 all around but cant decide what to do for the rear. Thoughts? Suggestions?:thumbsup:

    Buddy and I did some maintenance yesterday on both our trucks
    • Changed oil
    • Installed fumoto valve
    • Washed and fluid filmed
    • Cleaned and respooled my winch line (just wiped it down with WD-40)
    • Rotated tires
    I also installed this back up camera. It is AMAZING being able to see behind me now. The quality and packaging is fantastic, and I have no doubt this will last me a long time. Install was a breeze.

    And since everyone likes pics, here’s one of my skid. Had to drop it to tighten the fumoto. Man this thing takes a beating.
