AZ BS Thread 4²0

Put on 570 miles round trip today and saw some gorgeous country down in the Chiricahuas that I want to go back and explore when I’m not in the work truck.

 

Was in a hurry to get out of the house fucking tipped the knee scooter and out of instinct put all my weight on the bad ankle to catch myself. Not sure I've ever yelled so loud in my life.

 

Not I. It's still on jackstands in the garage.

 

so you smashed one, and the other is still stuck at home? Bummer man! no fun.

 

Wife and I are thinking of taking the toddler up north to play in the snow tomorrow. How's it looking up there in Flag guys?

 

Got a few inches of the fresh stuff and it's supposed to stay cold so it won't melt.

 

exactly.. its my own doing tho. just had to "upgrade while I was in there"...

 

nice! it is a good feeling when you knock out a bunch of maintenance items. trucks feels better too. spent the last year or two doing all that to the Taco.. now its the Minitruck's turn.

 

checked out the Taco yesterday at the repair shop. one small bracket behind the bumper/headlight that needs to be replaced, all other damage was cosmetic. bumper and fender will be painted and the driver side door partially blended as well. ordered my new headlights and fog lights out of pocket since I wanted specific ones and to swap them both at the same time to keep the pair matching.. and they will reimburse me with deducting the amount from my 250 deductible. tierod is the only thing wrong steering/suspension wise. The gussets definitely saved it. steering rack seems ok minus a slight leak at the hose. Only thing I need to watch out for is the driver side wheel bearing/hub. sucks.. cus those are relatively new as well.. along with the steering rack, tierods, etc. oh well.. now it will be new new. lol

 

Wait, what happened to the taco? Were you playing ken block and ran out of talent?

 

I’m the spirit of giving -

My sister brought this kick ass viral sinus cold with her from the East coast and I am willing to pass it on to any willing TW participants!

 

Sounds like extra time off work. Hell yes!

 

Might be what I have been fighting for about a week and a half now. My sinuses have calmed down such that my face isn’t swollen under my eyes and painful but the nose is still running incessantly.

 

Might be, pressure is so intense my eyes are water constantly all while my nose is running yet I cannot breath through my nose at all

 

Got into a little fender bender last Wednesday morning. Traffic was fucked.. came up over the RR tracks to it being dead stopped on the other side.. and just couldnt stop in time. locked em up and swerved to avoid most of it. stuffed the front driver corner. about 2500 in damage.. pretty much all cosmetic.

 

Ahh well that sucks. Good excuse for armor though. Cash that check and fix it yourself

 

yeah yeah.. lol I know. I would love to get shit goin.. but for the sake of time and ease.. I'm just having it all replaced. Definitely motivates me to get one sooner though.

 

Wow. 1.5 days and not a single post in here. Some fucked it up real good all because they couldnt appreciate some harmless jokes...
