1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yeah, member #31, but I've been away for many years, just came back this month.

 

That’s insane. You have to be one of the original members who are still active. How did you find this forum? I can’t even imagine what this place looked like in 2006.

Fuck me I was 6 years old when you joined here for the first time.

 

Lol, wtf! Fuck I feel old. I just turned 40 a couple months ago but I still feel like I'm 30, well mentally, not physically. Haha.

Bought my 01 in 04. I bought the Tacoma wanting a vehicle that I wouldn't spend money on, then I found about lifts & stuff & I was back where I started.

When I was a teen I got into imports when the whole Honda thing started. Worked at a performance shop doing installs & motor swaps. I was a advid racer back then. Import stuff started getting out of hand so I got out of it in 2003.

Yeah, it wasn't much when I first joined. Like any forum that starts up, never know if it's gonna be a good one or not. Glad TW turned into a good one. Look at it now, pretty much the only Toyota forum I go on.

Before TW I was on customtacos & ttora, mostly CT. Ttora was more for the serious offroaders. Yotatech I never hung around much. Customtacos had cool peeps, wasn't just for offroad guys, minis were very welcome too. Then CT started dying out & then eventually got bought out by autoguide or something like that. I hate when forums get bought out by groups like that, they usually turn to shit or already have before then.

 

This makes me feel old...

 

Yup they'll be bankrupt by next year

I think they're trying to push some reservation holders to either shit or get off the pot.

The $35k Model 3 is not coming out anytime soon and they want firm orders

 

Just left my Cruiser at the exhaust shop. Quoted $370 to do the whole thing. That's a lot less than I was expecting for all that pipe work.

 

If it makes you feel older then i was 8 in 2006 and @JKO1998 was 7 lol

 

Shit, I was only 11. That was half my life ago

 

I figured you were like mid 30’s haha

 

Damn thats crazy. 06 doesn’t even sound/feel that long ago but yet 06 was like half are life ago

 

Not yet, barely even mid 20s

In my mind I still think cars from the mid 90s aren't that old. Yet when I see one on the road they are usually beat to shit.

 

Well that’s good

 

I don't think they are either. I grew up in them. My family didn't have a car from the new millennium until 2012.

 

I guess it's official, I'm old... had to happen eventually. LOL
