    I also remember almost putting a rock wall through my door (about 1" clearance) so that squeeze might not be Ram 2500 compliant. Also, isn't that run "built rig only"? Still think it would be fun to ride shotgun to watch how fast the pro's can fly through.

    So quick back story as I shouldn't copy/pasta my CR on this incident from work...

    Last Tuesday one of our anchor store Target LP guys contacted us reference a bomb threat..LP manager advised it was heard over their FRS radios. He described the accent as middle-eastern in nature with "bomb is set to explode in 5 minutes"

    Our staff divided up the parking lot and cleared the appropriate areas (trash receptacles, planters, made contact w/ individuals in vehicles, etc etc)

    After doing so, I met with the Department Commander and offered to assist on the search of the interior of the building....

    all 6 - 10 of us teamed up with Target employees and searched every nook and crannie to no avail. (thankfully)

    We cleared the building and determined it was probably an individual sitting in the parking lot watching, and laughing at this event unfolded...

    Fast forward to today....their same LP manager contacted us and advised the same middle-eastern accent was on their radios using explicit language, and then turned into an American accent....he advised the person on their radio was being specific to which employee was doing what so they knew they had to be in the area...


    So, I grabbed our vehicles and entered through a parking lot through Macys which is just east of Target....

    I observed a white Toyota pick-up occupied by at least 1 with what appeared to be an FRS radio in his hands. The object he was holding was close to his mouth, round in shape, and darker in color.

    The truck began to exit...I exited the vehicle and contacted the driver and observed a second male juvenile in the passenger seat.

    The driver occupant displayed signs of nervousness. These symptoms were heavy breathing, and fast twitching of his right leg.

    Upon questioning why he was on our property, loitering the driver advised it was "senior ditch day" (truant) I questioned the device he had, and he and the passenger occupant claimed it was a vaporizer and displayed it to me.....i called him out on bs and continued questioning him....psngr occupant asked if i was detaining them...i declined and advised they are to exit our property and will be considered trespassing if back on property....i noted the plate.

    PD arrived (Target was RP) a few after....

    I gave PD the back story on it, and I called my SRO buddy at a local high school as I believe they were students of the school hes an SRO at....

    long story short- shortly after, they located and impounded the vehicle that was suddenly now at their high school, and have two in custody....I feel pretty fucking good knowing these fucking shit heads will probably be charged with false reporting of an explosive device, expelled from high school, amongst other charges..

    Oh, heres the kicker...the driver is an Target employee of a nearby city....which shows how he got their radio....

    I just got my frame rust safety bulletin in the mail. Has anyone on here had their frame checked and if so has anyone had any major rust damage? My truck was born and raised in the metro area. Should I be concerned?

    Interesting. I will have to check my mail when I get home. I am sure Toyota is sending it to all owners not just coastal based trucks. I will in my recent crawls under my truck I am seeing a bit more rust. But it is all surface rust from what I can see.

    No worries really, it has to do with states that used salt for road maintenance in the winter. Colorado uses very little salts and is a very dry climate most of the time, so rust perforations are not normal. Keep in mind, any frame welding voids the corrosion warranty. Look for rust perforations (holes larger then 10mm) not surface rust. Surface rust is normal and should be treated like you would your sliders/bumpers if you care about such things.

    The worst place for perforations is next to the catalytic converters, excessive heat from loading can burn the pain off.

    I it is a free to you inspection, so take it in at your leisure.

    Ok, can someone else try the multi quote. Or tell me how it changed from the last site.

    I would click the multi-quote on the 1st quote and then quote on the second. Then I would write my reply. Both quotes would show up. It does not seem to be working that way now.

    Brian,
    I noticed the same thing....

    The way I did this one was to hit "multiquote" on both of your messages and then there was an "insert quotes" button just below the reply box that I hit. Then I had to confirm.
