    Pages 1 thru about 13,000 are mostly @Sperrunner posting nonstop back before he got into HVAC and all but disappeared lol

    I believe you could get a v6 4x4 Auto truck, not a v6 4x4 MT truck.

    From what I've read, the front diff will drop in and it's almost exactly the same drivetrain a a 5VZ Tacoma. Being a manual truck, there isn't even any electrical work needed if you stick with a j-shift transfer case and manual hubs.

    We moved around a bunch especially when I was older, by the time I got to my 3rd high school in 2 years I was worn out from trying to make friends and having to leave them behind but eventually found a welcoming group of friends in the drama/theater clique. Except I can't act for shit so I joined the stagecraft crew to stay involved lol.

    and lest we forget that George Lucas wrote in a part for a chunky pilot named General Porkins who was told to "eject" from his X wing into the vacuum of space after being shot down

    Definitely two accepting groups. I was at the art nerds table so we were all sort of adjacent. Certainly don't miss high school though lol and I don't envy you having to switch so much @eon_blue That had to suck

    one of those double edge swords kinda deals - definitely hated it at the time and I internalized a lot of it that led to some self destructive shit later on. But looking back, I got to see a lot of places and things that most kids didn't. @Kwikvette knows even better than me being an army brat. Though in my parent's case each time we moved was "the last time, we promise" lol.

    Will I ever subject my kids to it...helllll no, not if I can help it anyway.
