    Both of you need to stop being thread police. It’s getting very aggravating to see person after person try to herd us cats. It’s never gonna happen :)

    The reason this thread gets off track is because the keys that spell “is 1.05 out yet” dont work on their keyboards anymore.

    Try to herd cats, see how far you get. They’re just gonna keep going in random directions just like this thread. You’re new here, you’ll understand eventually

    Ever try to push rope? Make a soup sandwich?

    Easier than trying to keep any TW thread on topic. I gave up a long time ago.

    Lol, I bet a few ignore lists are getting quite long :notsure:

    This summer we were coming back from Yellowstone, and it took 4.5 hours to get from Ft. Collins to Denver. I'm glad we don't have that in ABQ.

    Don't kid yourself, the job might get done faster, but the workers are paid less, treated shittier and the private company will make a hefty profit margin which won't be any cheaper than the gov doing the work in the long term.

    Gov/union workers just need to have consequences imposed, there's no incentive in the union's when you'd have to plow a car through a bus full of choir boys to get shit-canned. I've seen guys show up visibly still drunk, and the super will have a cab take them home and they still get a full day's pay. :eek:

    We're $80 here in NM, but the salaries are 1/3 to 1/2 Californias.

    I've seen the same thing where I work. Union guy has to pretty much kill someone to be canned. Most supervisors/managers don't have the balls/fortitude to take them on. You have to get your ducks all in a row, that's for sure.
    The complaining is what gets to me the most. The smallest thing sets some of these guys off, and it makes the work environment toxic at times.

    Based on my similar question here, I bought a RCA Cambio for around the same price. Brand new. It worked great.

    Still no TSB? I saw a big improvement from 1.04 to 1.04R. It sounds like it should be a bigger improvement yet with 1.05. The truck really should have come with 4.30s and a different 5th gear ratio.

    4.30s or a 4.56 with a 265/75R16 option in the off road models & above like they use to have the bigger tire options in the pickups.

    Yeah I remember my 01 off road had 4:10's, but the other option was 3.73 I think?

    I have an 18 Camry se to and it's nothing like that. I actually wish my Tacoma had the 8 speed tranny like my Camry.
