    Messing with the small display on my keyboard. You can have it do certain things. It’s a touch screen so you can make a button or widget.
    I made a button for tacomaworld.com

    It’s a pretty handy device.

    Little basic maintenance this evening. Engine and cabin air filters changed, along with a oil change. Sitting at 153,138.

    Will need to do brakes all around soon. Contemplating on bringing it in to be done just because I haven’t had much free time to do any truck stuff.

    Had a suspension clunk going on with the Pius. Ignored it a little bit, but then thought - I don't want to buy tires too.
    Dropped it at the mechanic, report came back not struts but end links, oh & front brakes.
    Went to pickup the car, didn't feel like walking, so took the Taco & left it for an oil change.
    Wow, new end links made a big difference in the driver experience. Brakes, eh - sure, better, why not.
    No waffling on those links though - noticeably better driving experience.

    New oil in the Taco is a good thing. Told him to check out the lower ball joints while he was under it, because - Toyota Truck.

    Left the house around 7am this morning to bring the Mrs to a small procedure she is having done, and it was AMAZING outside.

    A bit cool, a small breeze, and no humidity.

    Love it. And I think the humidity is supposed to be gone for a few days from what I saw.

    Absolutely beautiful out there. Got out this am for a quick run to the reservoir up our road. 3.5 miles.

    Been working on getting back in shape a bit, and the exercise is very impactful with decompressing.

    What a weekend. Man it was busy but my god were those some nice mornings weather wise!!! Work was insane. We did a 1 year anniversary celebration at the store so I basically spent the weekend outside...no complaints really. Although there were a few modded Tacoma's that came in, actually met one guy but said he wasnt on the forums. :crazy:
