For Stock Rigs Only

And the other stock ride that I drove today. It’s a 2003 as well and has 163k miles. I rarely drive it.

 

I told my wife it’s easier to describe to someone if I’m meeting them somewhere

 

Any chance this is the 8.1L ?

 

This was me. When I was a young father and husband and couldn't afford a mechanic. I had a pretty good set. Then my rollaway tool chest....rolled away. From a garage in Chicago. My own fault. At that point I was buying better cars and needed less. Now I approach tools like I approach mods to my truck...when I NEED X, I buy X, and try to leave Y and Z on the shelf til next time. I was a machinist in an earlier life and had access to good tools, now as joe consumer, most stuff is sh*t it seems.

where do you find 'em?

 

I'm a machinist, I've been here in the same shop for almost 26 years.

There's a MAC tool salesman who lives a few miles from me, I can send him a message and if he doesn't have what I need on his truck he'll get it for me. I also do some welding for him from time to time and we trade my work for tools, it's a win win for both of us.

 

Right on! I often wished I'd stayed on the bench and left the schmoozing and administering to others. I miss those days. Fortunately my Kennedy did NOT roll away and I still have my precision measurement tools.

 

Anybody need a good laugh, or want to see just how some people with 4x4's are? Read this thread. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/4x4-hi-low-what-is-ok-and-what-isnt.704336/page-3#post-24983561

 

I dig it

 

I seem to be buying more Kobalt these days

 

We'll allow it.

 

OP approved

 

I know, it's a party foul but it is what it is

 

It's the 6.6L Duramax. I can't imagine what kind of mileage the 8.1L gets. I get 16-17 around town in it, same thing with my Tacoma

It passed the algorithm.

 

Not really brand specific, just sorta see what I need and wait for a decent option to go on sale
