You should post in here so I can like/reply

 

i have no reason to comment in here anymore im only in the motorcycle thread really or the ranger forum about it anymore

 

Selling the Tacoma doesn't revoke your TW pass

 

i know im just on the motorcycle thread lol i have nothing to add in here so i talk with those guys about every day tbh its pretty active in that thread

 

To be fair, this thread is almost 1600 pages of nothing

 

yuuuup and i have nothing to add to it anymore really so i dont bother i stay over with those guys because well its fun talking about bikes, trips, mods and so on and so on lately its been about injuries haha

 

We love hearing about injuries and bikes and trips

 

Life really got in the way ha. Job ending, new house, new job, raising a parasite. All work and no play makes johnny a dull boy. Whens the next pizza day?

So technically uphill you shouldnt put it in 5th due to the extra load but a 2200lb trailer is not much more load than 35s or 37s in stock gearing, so really you should be fine. Downhill and flat its not a bad idea because you can feel if its lugging. When i took the 4runner to the scrapyard the truck/trailer combo weighed right over 12k lbs and i was still cruising in 5th on 35s down to the scrap yard 2hr south.

umm, unless you're in 3rd at 55 or 2nd above 30 there's no such thing as engine braking these pigs.

He thinks rangers are all the rage. Usually its a woman that causes this amount of neutering.

But Calamity_taco you need to get out more. I think ive only met up with you once maybe when you used to get your truck dirty haha.

 

He's got a 2.7, not a 3.5. he has "some" engine braking

 

The 3.5 has “some” too.. you just have to bounce it off redline lol

 

The black truck is about to be usable again!

Gonna get the oil pan clearanced and radiator mounted up then I'll bring it home

 

Minty

 

No injuries thankfully only issue I have now is cold weather sucks ass with my injuries…. Only got the one bike I’ve been wanting to get another if I sell my m100 but I’d also like to get the klx setup like how I want it so ya haha. No trips since the Michigan one hopefully next year but atm nothing planned

I mean it is a great truck tbh it rides great and is comfy and no more vibration now that the wildpeaks are gone and gets decent mpg plus it’s zippy so ye I like it

I don’t do wheeling anymore tbh it bores me anymore it was fun for awhile but I got tired of it so I only do exploring and camping with this one

 

Nothing wrong with that. I think the guys that go wheeling tend to talk more. So it seems like everybody on Tacoma world is some crazy rock. Collar in the reality is most people would rather do what you're doing, some light exploring and camping and not breaking their trucks.

 

I just wish I had more time to get out.

 

100%

 

Yuup it was great fun back then and I met a lot of cool people doing it but after awhile and breaking a good amount of things I kinda looked at it like I drive 2-3 hours to go to a offroad park and spend 5 hours or longer at the park and then the same to drive back… why not spend the same time to go somewhere new that I haven’t been? Only gonna be here so long so I’d rather explore and see more! Hopefully this year I’ll
Be doing more bike trips! I really wanna explore Arkansas and Colorado on the bike so bad! So hopefully I can!

 

Arkansas is made for bikes. Tons of great groups and hundreds of miles of winding mountain roads. I have maps..... Lol

 

Haha true but it’s made for bikes that like corners mine isn’t the best at them unless I have sm wheels I want to explore the back roads and some of the main roads
