1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

All this Jimny talk reminds me of this guy I wheeled with once. Dude was on 31's, open/open and was following me everywhere on 35's double locked.

Funny seeing the dude sit in it cause he was like 6'4". Now it's on 35's double locked on Toyota mini truck axles IIRC.

 

No stomach related stuff from it thankfully.

 

That's crazy. They're like little mountain goats.

 

That's good to hear.

 

WTF is this world coming to? I had 3 of those at one time and a 94 explorer (essentially an updated version of the same platform)

I think in total I paid 1500 for all of them?

 

FML so much shit I used to own being sold for beaucoup bucks

 

Right? Before I was born my folks had a Scout and a Mustang. If only they'd kept em. Not to mention my moms early Suburban we had. (Not to sell just to enjoy. Well maybe sell the Mustang, not my thing ha)

 

I've saw a guy put one on a RC car to chase it in the snow. Also, see them on snowmobile handlebars.

Damn.

I can work at Wendy's now

 

A friend of mine had an '84 (I think) Bronco II when we were in high school. It looked great. Battleship gray, CB whips from the mirrors, moon visor over the windshield. It had the carbureted engine and would occasionally stall while waiting at red lights.

I like them.

I used to think they'd be a great vehicle for driving around Chicago. Small, so easy to park. 4x4 so you don't have to spend as much time digging out after a snowfall. Manual so you don't have to loan it to your friends. Unassuming enough that it probably won't get messed with. In other words, I liked them because they were cheap, just barely good enough, and not far from disposable.

Nostalgia is a powerful drug.

 

I'm still under qualified, all the guys at my local Wendy's have face tats and I don't

 

I loved the Dirt Every Day Samurai.

I had a 94 Explorer as well.
Tranny blew on the side of I-40 outside of Barstow when I was on a road trip with a friend. We were 16/17. Fun stuff.

 

I thought for sure I was going to click that and it would be a childrens pack of those water transfer tattoos..... I didnt think they could sell that shot to just anyone.

 

I had a 97 Explorer, best vehicle ever until the trans went out at 180k

 

I really liked mine...besides that part. Don't see em anymore. (For good reasons I'm sure, your generation was the last of the good Explorers I think)
