2024 Fuckery Thread

You won't

 

It’s that time of the season

 

Favorite 108 moment this year: watching the burning man exodus parade down the 395 at the 108 junction. Solid never ending line of vehicles ranging from stuff straight out of a Dr. Seuss book to million dollar overlanders and motor homes. They all had one thing in common though - they all had the windows and vents tarped and or hefty bagged sealed. It was a seen reminiscent of a Mad Max movie.

 

Don’t forget the U-Haul trucks that totally weren’t driven off road and will absolutely be cleaned before the next customer rents them.

 

There's some uncertainty with regard to weather this week. I know 120 was closed around 6pm last night but would be reevaluated once the risk of snowfall had past. I did hear today that the remainder of the week is predicted to be "unsettled". Here is the Bay Area.

 

Yea. It is apparently

 

They have about 2.5 inches at the top of the pass right now

 

i want to go so bad before snowfall. No skids yet tho.

ahh. Home sweet home

 

skids, what’s that

 

Let's go! I think there's some snow up there though.

 

I may end up without my 4th Gen 4Runner after Sand Mountain collision. If I give it back to insurance, I will have a set of skids to trade for cheap.

 

No toilet or shower? If not both, that's a deal breaker for the wife. How does it sleep in cold weather or in windy conditions?

 

Cold and windy

 

@Fernando & @techfinsoup can fight for the add-ons that insurance isn't giving me credit for. I have a rusty front Coastal Offroad bumper (for 1" body lift) and skid plates (for 1" diff drop), a rear locker third member with 4.56 gears, matching gears in the front diff, Fox 2.0 rear shocks, Tundra rear coil springs, FJ80 front coil-overs, and a lot more. Its a great truck that just needs a new radiator, headlights, power steering cooler, water pump (the shaft that holds the fan is sheared), and hard transmission line. To be pretty, it will need a grille, hood, and a lot of metal forming of the front cowl. Insurance is charging less than $3,000 for it, so you can have the whole thing cheap.

 

I just want to know what you hit!?

 

I only saw lights; my passenger saw it in daylight. It was a white Tacoma built enough that it was no longer street-legal and didn't have plates or insurance. The driver was drunk and turned into me. Sand Mountain Fuckery at its finest.

 

At least you walked away from it...

 

Yeah, the other guy had a passenger and I had two. Out of the five of us, no one was hurt. I am very thankful for that.
I was trying to stop, but that's not easy downhill on a dune. I thing I was going about 20 mph.

 

I hope they cited him.
