    Doug-o! Was he talking to himself like a psych ward patient, because he’s probably doing a review. :rofl:

    I was watching him for a while and he wasn’t saying much. He made eye contact with me and I know his face when I see it. Plus who the hell is driving a McLaren in Hayward, California? Haha

    I tweeted at him and he ignored me (he replies to everyone) so it confirms my suspicions it could be a McLaren press car and he signed an NDA for the time being.

    1st Gen and 3rd Gen, I feel more adventurous while driving the 1st Gen. it’s weird! can’t wait til @little squirt help with me the lift kit. Stock 15” rims with 31x10.5. Think it’ll rub? if I put 2nd Gen 16” wheels with 285 75 16?

    Not enough to have a build thread.
    The 1st gen? Stock mine came with 265/70/16s (which if I remember correctly converts to 30.4 x 10.2) which didnt rub. Even with 2 - 2.5" of lift, my 285s still find places to rub, but it's not bad. A wise man once said, "rubbings racing". I just added taller bump stops, so we will have to see if that eliminates some of the rub.

    Anyone happen to have a PS4 for sale? Long story short, my son has been asking for LEGO Ghostbusters Dimensions for Xmas for awhile now. Wife bought him a bunch but we had no idea it was for a video game LOL. I guess he plays it at the neighbors house.

    I feel old :oops:

    At first I thought you were talking about my truck cause that's where im out of but nahhh. Seen that truck at Lowe's though

    Dude that blows. I'd be devastated... hope everything works out man and you can get your stuff replaced without too much issue. On the bright side you're safe.

    No. Dont. Fernys already regretting it. Unless you sas or long travel it. But those are significant, costly mods. If you want tundra brakes, go 285/75/16s or 285/70/17s. If you're fine with factory brakes, you go 33x12.5 on 15s.

    Jen just rolled her eyes when I mentioned renting a Tacoma, lol. (Didn't want to drive a turd gen anyway). Went with a Grand Cherokee Limited.

    Got a cabin at Lake Elmer Thomas recreation area on Ft. Sill, Lawton Oklahoma.
