MARYLAND TACOMAS

Thnx but its all good there is always next time and the shore is close so I don't mind the drive. I guess next stop will be in the spring for the striper run?

 

I always had good luck in November down by St. Clements Island on the Potomac. Seems like we always caught the legal limit.

 

I cleaned out the garage yesterday to park the Taco in and left the Charger parked under the tree. I might bring it in if it gets to bad. I did spend half of the day yesterday removing the road tar from the doors and wheels wells.

 

This is what the other end of the state looks like

Some pics were from earlier today its crazy its a windy rain/snow/sleet thunder and lightening kinda storm

 

Hope everyone made it through the storm safely...last year we lost power for 6 days so we were lucky this time and didn't lose power...damage didn't seem too bad in Harford County...

 

Aside from some heavy rain and good gusts, no damage here, didnt even knock my trash cans down. My parents in Joppa have been out of power for over 24hrs.

A view form there apt around 5pm today

 

Mike I seen you yesterday. You need to paint that damn cap already!! haha

 

Yea yea I heard you from a mile away...I got a price I can live with but a guy down the street has a SSM DCSB with an Undercover so I might try for an even trade first...

 

Anyone know what the dealer charges for a 60k service? I came damn close to hydrolocking my truck tonite and im just passed the 60k mark so its a good time to change all my diff fluids and plugs anyway.

Really dont wanna do the work myself, kinda lazy when it comes to the maintance, hated doing my 30k service

I drove the truck home on what seemed to be 5 cylinders, the CEL was blinking but not throwing a code, put in in the garage and got the coils dried and the air filters dried, seems to be running good now, no CEL, oil looks to still be good but im gonna change it just in case, had water pour out when i popped off the air filter...

 

I will check when I get to work in the morning.

 

Thanks man

 

Snorkel time...

 

It was never in my plan, thinking about it now tho, first time i found a puddle that deep in MD..

 

I found the 30K service on my 2.7L easy to do. I made a mental note to buy a magnet drain plug for the rear diff at the 60K mark. One nice thing is I am not due for spark plugs till the 120K maintenance.

 

They said that the cost of this can vary. But the price will be close to this at most dealers.

 

Damn dude; sounds like you got pretty lucky. I kinda wish I had a snorkle sometimes just for the peace of mind. I find if you dont open up the throttle too much you wont get the water. I've been in deep with no problems. Drive slow homie.

Just do the 60K tune-up yourself. Its not that bad, especially when you factor in the $500 you'll spend at the stealership.

 

Hey!! I resent that!! haha. jk

On the other hand he does have a great point. I would need help with the plugs and the re-torque of the propeller shaft??

 

Hey man, if I had the money I'd drop mine off in a second. Its cold, and no one likes being under a truck as filthy as mine. I have dirt in my eyes for days every time.

Plugs were pretty easy, there's a good w/u on here. Prop shaft was just a check and see thing. Mine hadn't budged if I remember correctly.

Need to get back under there and have a look at everything before winter comes and I neglect her for months and put on many miles driving to the mountain. Anyone else here go to whitetail/liberty/roundtop? Got my seasons pass for the 3rd year! Lets hope this winter is better than last's.

 

We should set up a day trip to one of them. Does anyone else snowboard?

 

I snowboard but those places are a decent trip for me for a day trip I board the wisp in Garrett County
