1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

My buddy's gardening business is taking off, and he tasked me with look for a truck for him. His budget is $3-5k.

Every Tacoma I've looked at has like 200-300k, a salvage title, or some terrible collision damage.

It's a shame I can't sell him the 5-Lug.

 

Scotty may as well instruct people not to buy cars, or even drive at this point.
Shouldnt buy new, shouldnt buy certified, no European, no sports cars. Guess craigslist scam ads are the only way to safely buy a car.

 

This guy is on drugs.

IMO YouTube channels are a lot like TV shows sooner of later you just tune out. I can't watch Scotty or Eric the Car Guy

 

I would drive that, if I could drive stick

and didn't live in Utah.


I like the color.

 

I wont watch scotty. ETCG is aight, but Eric O. at South Main Auto is my favorite automotive youtuber, he shows the real, uncut stuff. And he demonstrates all the ways to combat rusty parts.

 

The wheels, however, are disgusting.

 

He said "I don't want 4x4"

 

I liked Eric the Car Guy up until he started milking the ever living shit out of the Fairmont build. I can understand Bad Obsession Motorsport taking a long time to build a Mini, but a Eric and his Fairmont not so much. There were certain baisc parts of that build that dragged on for multiple videos.

 

I mean, it's going to be a gardener's truck that'll be mainly cutting grass and pulling weeds in middle class track housing subdivisions.

 

Those are delicious

 

What i miss

 

Please, do show me where there is a logging road in metropolitan Bay Area. Haha.

 

Yeah I never really followed him that much, Ill just watch some of his ETCG1 vlogs. I was waiting patiently for Chrisfix's del sol series to start, but I dont think thats happening anytime soon, kinda getting bored of the driftcar stuff. MotorCity Mechanic's $300 PT cruiser series isnt bad for a short series. The Cougar House garage guys, well I just dont think they know what theyre doing. I got sick of that SAS 5th gen 4Runner build quick.

 

You were gone?

 

Idk was i?

 

Thanks for remimding me.


(only blinking emoticon I could find)

 

I dunno, wasn't really paying attention.

 

South Main is where it's at. It's about the only auto tech channel I still watch

 

Man, @sperunner is catching up to @BartMaster1234's post count. Only been a member a quarter if the time he has too.
