1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Did I ever tell you that I met him at a couple of technical presentations back when I was selling high-end audio equipment? He only lived like a couple of hours away. It was common to see him and his wife at events around Little Rock.

He was a very gifted and interesting person -- just down to earth. A walking audio encyclopedia. I soaked up every minute of that experience.

That was in a past life before I starting programming IBM computers -- a long time ago.

 

That’s awesome!

 

Some of the Klipsch philosophy and lectures stuck with me and for good benefit.

When presented with a technical problem and the conventional "by the book" approach seems kind of kludgey or convoluted, just say BULLSHIT and do the right thing.

 

How dare you forget to tag me

 

I think the dealer forgot to put the oil drain plug back on right when they did an oil change on the other one

 

Oof...that sucks. Good they are making it right though

 

Sorry. Tagged.

 

Lol no worries.

I've been long out of the audiophile world, but I've had the chance to meet and talk to Matt Polk back then to discuss SDA's, Stephen Sank and his mods on certain stereo gear, and more.

 

This thing might have legs. Ready to go Overlanding Rig. Jacked up. ICON wheels. Tent installed.

Engine options - venerable VK56 or a new TT version of the 3.8L. I can hear the tuners already starting to sing. Sumbitch will haul ass whatever it has.

 

Thinking about drilling some holes in my marker light housing and throwing some of these in for blinkers, just don't know if they'll be bright enough.

All those upgrades on a Toyota tin can frame = crunch lol

 

autozone have the 921 bulbs too i guess?

 

Yeah, I was able to get the bulbs and sockets from Autozone when I did the swap.

 

If only I had a drill

It can wait a couple weeks I guess.

 

I do to

 

I thought it was a new mod. Grasshopper lunge up the rocks.

 

Dealer didn’t tighten the drain plug after it’s first 7500 mile oil change. Leaked out an oil trail down the highway and lost oil pressure rolling into their neighborhood. 7510 miles.
