    When they plow the parking lot at work a few of us park partially on the piles cause most just avoid the spot but it's closer and we don't care.

    Next best day to go out and hit the trails is on Superbowl weekend/Sunday when everyone else is at home drooling over sportsball

    Last year when I kept trying to take my daughter up to see the snow on weekends the traffic was abysmal, we finally went on Superbowl Sunday and the roads were clear.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Worked on the Chevy tonight, got the direct drum apart and found out the trans was super healthy... Even though I'm rebuilding it all. Also found out the rear end is a 2.73... so I'll have the MPH and all the MPG a big block can offer but uh, well we will see if it works or not

    Working on an 87 Brat right now while waiting on parts for my 04... It's pretty terrifying trolling the Subaru forums watching parts for these dry up slowly over the last 3-4 years. The Brat stayed on the older chassis until 1987 when it was discontinued. While the Leone(or simply GL/DL/Wagon) went on to a new chassis in 1985. Front struts are officially no longer being made for the older chassis style.

    Woah he pulled the LT1 to put that in. A lot of people end up doing the opposite after getting fed up with their 2UZ/1UZ swaps. Meanwhile that frat guy I met in Oklahoma is ripping around in his 2JZ-GTE 80 series.

    Nice.
    I’m seriously debating the 2002 taco going 3uz with an r150f. Granted a couple years from now.. but still it’s on my mind

    Craziest thing I might do is R150F swap the 04. I'd need to snag an ECU that wasn't $800 on eBay though.

    I just have the urge to v8 swap a taco. Lol

    seems the mounts exist. A bellhousing exists to bolt the r150 up, and gs430 or ls430 parts cars can be had cheap. The hardest part is making it emissions legal

    They released the 95 officially so I should see it this week or next. Debating aluminium flat bed or toss a stock bed on it. Hmm

    this trucks just going to be used for hauling things that don’t require a trailer.. tundras gas mileage is.. bad
