1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I was busy last night



Jk. I just saw it on tundras and thought it was interesting seeing how mines the same color

 

Nice! To be completely honest I've never seen a toyota with that type of seat belt .. all my experience with that style has been with american made sedans from the 80s, I've done side jobs on 2 different buicks with that seatbelt and both were stuck in the open position

 

Hrm, this one looks interesting.

Cant go wrong if you ask me

 

For a beater I think you'd be better off with the older Corolla

 

I have a tail gate... But it's bright red

 

it would really make some black/white "STUDENT DRIVER" decals pop

 

Maybe go with a Scion - https://sandiego.craigslist.org/ssd/cto/d/national-city-toyota-scion-2005/7154581519.html

 

have you considered a Honda Fit? They are pretty fun and spacious enough that I can comfortably drive one and I am 6'3" and fat

 

Nah, fuck Honda. Toyota for lyfe babee!

 

I had two Scion tC's before my truck. First one was the original model like that one, drove it completely problem free for 160k miles before trading it in on a 2012 one that I had for 70k before getting my truck. They are good cars

I see the trunk latch has been replaced on it... That was a huge issue for the first tC's lol, mine included. They would snap off like balsa wood. Almost every one of them you see now has one replaced or taped back on. For some reason Toyota never issued a service bulletin for it

The 4 banger doesn't put out a ton of power but it scoots behind the manual trans

 

I was looking at those too, they seem pretty decent. Not sure how they are on the interstate though.

 

you sound like James

 

@xtremewlr go get me the mr2 and I’ll forgive your lack of driving in cod

 

My sister has had two of those, also good cars and they scoot along pretty well. The tC feels more sporty though imo

 

2006 corolla.

mines unkillable

I'm just browsing right now. See what happens with getting the t-case fixed (leak free) and get shit paid off and then worry about finding a beater. So probably in a couple weeks I'll look a little more seriously. Maybe. I always have the bike but it's kinda hard to carry bigger parts on that.

 

For that money, I'll stick with my early 80's Stihl. Can't leave bar oil in the reservoir, otherwise it leaks out into the case, but beside that, it's a good old saw!!

 

sounds like you just need a bigger backpack
