    Come on, your parents never gave you the ol "If *insert dumbass friend here* jumped off a cliff, would you do it too?" routine? I'm saying just because people do something doesn't mean it's right or ideal, it was such a piss poor argument to my statement I clowned you with my answer.

    There is a logic to that statement.

    I just don't want to live where I don't have access to the woods. Hiking, wheeling, hunting etc. Texas is just not a good place for any of that whn you're not "from there."

    Money isn't everything, but I also get where you're coming from, cause when you have none it is everything and I've been there too. That's how I ended up in AZ, and that's been one of the biggest life lessons I've ever had to learn.

    I wouldn’t do it as an adult but I know kids that went down and got a job working on drilling rigs and now they’re making 90k+ Right out of highschool

    I feel no desire to because I know I’ll be right up there with them and still be able to live where I want and not destroy myself either.

    You'd think it would be a one size fits all kinda deal, but it's like buying snap on stuff, you ain't shit until you have the whole set

    1st gen taco has an okay following but pretty lame part support. That's why you see so many suspension things made by members here. Jeep's and second gens have it all, we have diddly fucking squat and day by day more armor and suspension parts stop production.

    A month for tie rods, the factory must have actually run out. What are you going to do with them since the truck is wrecked

    So you ordered them for the 4Runner right? They aren’t interchangeable

    I guess they’re interchangeable if you change the LBJ and tie rods but you cant cross either one.

    I dont understand raccoons. They come into my yard, they get chased out my my yard. Over and over. Never get anything out of it. But yet they keep trying.

    You would think they would of given up by now

    They’re animals with a brain the size of a golf ball, can’t expect much.
