1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

The Silo vibes






reminds me, I think the new season is out

 

I've got a 96 and I'd really like a better mount for my phone (currently RAM mounted to the windshield) and my VHF mic (in the shift boot). I see that teqoffroad.com has a mount for 3rd gen 4Runners and one for 98-on Tacomas. I've swapped a few messages with the owner about a mount for 95-97 trucks, and he said, "eventually" most of a year ago.

It looks like the 3rd gen 4Runner center dash panel is basically the same as the 95-97 Tacoma, only difference being that they only have one cup holder. If I don't care about having cup holders, do you guys think the mount for the 3rd gen 4R would fit my 96? Anybody own a 4Runner and can measure?

 

It's been nice to move to a company that doesn't have a stock price to manage...

 

That's how ours is, too. Owner is a bit of a megalomaniac though so that's primarily the reason. But it does have its advantages.

 

Communism you say... reported!

 

Considering what I build, it's about as 'Murica as it gets.

 

@Kwikvette the fields need optimization

 

The farm must grow

 

Profit margins are life

 

But corn stalks are up

 

I thought the same thing. I'll work for a city government so I don't have to worry about the bottom line so much. Nope! budgets got slashed this summer and we are going to be working on half the staff.

 

I work for DoD contractors, it's constant money once you get the contracts so pretty sustainable long term.

 

@Kwikvette 3 hours to cut and chip some trees to start building a house. Need better ways to automate this

 

Glad I skipped out

I'm piecing out an Axial SCX24, custom build, or Redcat Ascent...

 

On a real note. fS25 on console isn’t that fun yet. Base game selection of stuff is small, probably in 6 months when its full of mods it will be better. They did carry over alot of fs22 DLC features over into fs25 base game

 

A friends winch died on him last week. The replacement motor shipped quick. Installed it tonight in 30° temps. Good times.
