South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I swear this thread is full of peeps who regret selling their Tacoma's

 

Don’t mind me though I bought it back!

 

& I’m the oddball who just bought one, & not for offroading ...

& am making a 24 year old one into a street sports truck- calling it a “sports cart” rather than a “sports car”

 

How much extra HP with the broke u joint.

 

Me?
Don’t have a broken u-joint ...
Or is it something I’m missed?

 

I’ll send you my neat and intact front bumper for your cut bumper with that sos steel attached.

 

Yeah easier just to send it out how it is. My tacoma has all the lift and stuff on it when I traded in. Didn’t feel like swapping anything.

 

Great day. Already fertilized the grass and planted some trees

 

Couple pages back tuned Ford 2.7 snapped a u joint with a broke drive shaft.

 

Mine has been great. no issues whatsoever. there is a higher percentage than normal of engine failures on these motors. A lot has to do with the emissions crap, but also there are a large number of main bearing / lower end failures. Happens without warning. low mileage trucks, high mileage truck, no rhyme or reason. It starts knocking, pukes oil and fluids and leaves you stranded waiting on a tow truck. These issues get magnified on the forums, kind of like the turd gen forums on here. most are happy, and will be fine....maybe. So there has been a class action lawsuit in the works for some time, and it settled on May 5. Eligible trucks (generally 2014-2016 models) need to get in and get the AEM update (approved emissions modification) which is a reflash of your ecm. wipes out my tune and goes back to stock configuration. The main thing I like about the tune is it turns off the EGR, the exhaust gas recirculation, which pumps the sooty shit back through the intake for a reburn to clean it up a bit. The intake gets caked up over time and fouls up the valves in there. Payout is up to $3000, or $2400 if the former owner makes a claim within 90 days of the settlement date. (he would get $600 as a former owner) The payment is to cover diminished value we believe. So I will get it done and take the money and run, most likely.

 

I dont know what a Tacoma SX's is

 

Most of the newer diesels from big rigs to the smaller ones in cars and trucks have been having issues since all the emissions stuff came about. It sucks.

Glad I wasn't the only one that saw that and didn't comprehend.

 

Yeah its a shame, I like the diesel but the emissions crap has really make them irrelevant these days.

 

Yea the EGR and DEF systems are always messing up on the new diesels

 

Dang you hate it that much jkjk

 

Red bull please.
