That is acceptable.

 

He was executed long ago.

 

Wise choice probably

 

Debatable.

 

Going to be selling my stock rear bumper, receiver hitch, and tonneau cover off my 1st gen Tacoma if anyone here is interested before I list them.

Bumper has some small dents, but it's not bad, ok chrome, but has black Plastidip. $30

Hitch is 2 yrs old, Kurt or Reese I think, I don't remember. Has 2" ball drop hitch and locking pin. $50

Tonneau cover is fiberglass, gray but faded clearcoat, no damage. Don't know the brand. Could use shocks and weatherstrip, but I've been rocking it as is. Easy to install with clamps, locking latch with key. $200 only fits single cabs and extended cabs, not 4-doors.

May trade for other 1st gen Tacoma parts.


EDIT: I also have a brand new electric winch that I never used. It's one of those bumper pull things that you slip over a hitch ball and connect to the battery. I think it's a Reese brand 2000lb. Was going to use as a backup winch for those oddball winching situations, or to hoist a deer for dressing, pull an engine, etc. but I never used it. Paid $75 for it 6 months ago, $60 takes it.

 

The truck Lives. Got her back right before the holidays. Continental collision took forever and weren't very professional. forgot to put my skid plate back on and wouldn't have told me if I hadn't noticed, and alot of other issues. repairs ended up being around 14k, which was luckily handled by insurance. long story short i didn't learn my lesson and got her nice and muddy on Christmas day

 

Somehow I've been so busy that I didn't look at the forecast... going to get all my shit done today before this cold snap hits and hopefully not leave the house until Wednesday.

 

This is TX this shit needs to stay North, waaaaay North of here.

 

No doubt

 

That hitch mount winch, how long is the rope?

 

I only took Monday off from work, now I'm re thinking that maybe I call da boss and tell him I need PTO for Tuesday too.

 

This is where I'm at too.

 

Even worse here. Some ice on roads right now.

 

My 4runner was lifted and skids put on one year ago today. A lot can change in a year!

 

hey yall! been working round the clock then was gifted the past 2 nights, worked til 20 mins before opening, got the hook up on some Kevin Fowler tickets friday night, then last night got a call with some free 1st row seats beer, an no line waits to the texas Stars hockey game! they lost but high contact an alot of fights directly inn front of me was sick.
nice to finally get away from the shop. since ill be spending all day in it yet again.
whats everyone doing tonight?

 

It’s like Nebraska wants to remind y’all what you’re missing. I’ve never been so cold as I have in Nebraska at 33 degrees and humid. That wind with nothing to stop it? Brutal.

I am so glad I brought my crap with me. I can work from home Tuesday if I need to, and I may need to.

 

So I saw the remains of a late model 2nd gen access cab that got destroyed at the Slaughter and Manchaca intersection. Trying to pull stills off the new dash cam but it keeps killing the computer.

WTF?

Anyway, driver looked to be okay and was talking with the cops. And if the owner is here on TW, sorry about your truck.

 

I was too far away to get anything better. I would have slewed the view left to get a better look but the light was green.

 

I think its only 25'-30' or so.
