4LO fitty.

Chapter 3-The Taco never had a chance.

So I take my left foot off the brakes and go WOT. And then that’s when the motor went sky high. Absolutely no traction! Fuck! I tried it 10 times, and even a different location, but it was the same outcome each time. Two wheels spinning, probably 4 the way TRAC works. I’m wondering if the rains had helped as last time I went a day or two after the rains. I recall seeing a video where a YouTuber purchased land next to his to do his YouTube stuff testing cars. He mentioned it aided in traction. I think I believe him, lol.

So…next time I’m going to air down AND go balls to the wall with the locker engagement. I’m kidding! I’ll give it one more shot, but no locker engagement. I ain’t that loco!

1st gear off WOT in the photo before it changed to 2nd gear…sliding all the way…10 times.

 

Chapter 4, picture heavy! I needs to take a break though

Edit:Stills taken from video. You don’t hear the motor in the video, just a crazy sound from the low gears.

Sorry for the fakie fake TW hometowns! We’ll get ‘em next time!

 

We were bamboozled

 

Well, you can also see it as the 3rd Gen has a tough powertrain! Sorry Torque Geners! But you’ll get there.

 

You're in a MT or auto? If it's an auto we'd love to see some trans temps next experiment


Some nice pictures too btw! Super low angle is cool

 

Chapter 5-The Dreaded Phone Call.

Feeling bummed I was not successful, I made the call to my nephew but he didn’t answer. The last time I wheeled with him, he broke the tube step on the 4R and the wife said it’s mall crawling from now on:0(

I wish Gordo was with me today. You too Brain RIP.

So I put U2’s channel on the XM as I feel their Joshua Tree encircles what the desert means to me. They got it so spot on.

 

Chapter 7-The Wind Talked All Day

Heading towards the Kelso Valley I believe. I didn’t have extra gas, so I had to tell this wonderful scenery goodbye. Such a gorgeous day. Mild temps and a beautiful strong breeze.

 

Chapter 8-I’ll Be Back

:0)

 

TOYOTA…

 

Auto, and hear hear. Particularly when I found out the trans doesn’t have the cooler. They probably swapped the weight of the AT cooler system for the weight of the radar, lol!!

 

sigh

 

We're on MrToads wild ride and there's no stopping

 

Wooooo, this made me laugh uncontrollably just now!

 

That’s right hater…you won’t be working on this taco :0)
