I'm really digging the blue AC TRD OR's right now. I'm fantasizing about one with the TRD OR grille painted black

Edit: While it DOES look better in person, that chrome airsucker just screams "Norelco" at me.

 

I like the blue too, but I wonder if it would get old

 

Meh, not for me. I like that Toyota blue. But I bet it'd show dirt almost as bad as a black truck.

 

Dark blue isn't nearly as bad as black.

 

I don't know, Cassie's car is dark blue and it's pretty bad with dirt, about as bad as I remember my black Jeep being. Salt's even worse.
The Pyrite Mica color on my Tacoma hides dirt really well; you don't realize how dirty it is until you clean it off and you remember just how metallic the paint is, haha!

 

Yarh. Pretty pissed right now. Fucking meatsticks at UPS managed to break the stock on the .22 I'd ordered, even though it was wrapped in padding, secured in place in a padded box, and labeled FRAGILE. Clean in half. And it's a long-discontinued model so there's no way for me to find a new stock. I can have a gunsmith repair this one because it's a pretty clean break, or I can try to find a used stock in good shape. But I'm PISSED because the old stock looks to have been in mint condition (just like the rest of the gun) before they broke it.


So I've started a claim with UPS for an item damaged in transit, rather than being able to plink with it this weekend.

 

good ol' ups. i'm sure they weren't rushing either this time of year

just booked another trip to queens/nj. every time i go to queens an angel loses it's wings and punches a puppy

 

James?

 

I've got a buddy who works as a lumper in the local UPS DC. I've been texting him pictures of it all afternoon to harrass him, lol.

 

I'm with you. It's like world rally blue on Subarus. Sometimes I regret getting black, sometimes I don't.

I wish I could spec a Tacoma instead of using the packages. I'd want the SR5 with a sunroof, everything else can be left off. I love how they look without the flares.

 

May have a buyer for my AK, hope he doesn't back out. Also, might have a buyer for my VP9.

 

Damn, that sucks!

Wow, that was fast! Want to sell my AR for me?

 

Lol I guess I'm just giving good deals. Selling the AK to get a MP5 clone and the VP9 for a NIB G34

 

You mean "spend a fourth Christmas in the sandbox"? This guy! And this year we fly right before Christmas

 

Yeah, it does. I got it for $100, and I managed to find a replacement stock from Numrich for $40, so even if I have to restock it I'll come out ahead of what it's valued at. But, it really annoys me to have to argue with a UPS representative to try and get them to pay for their mistake rather than just opening the box up, giving it a cleaning, and going plinking.

 

I don't know jack shit about guns but I do know one thing. Your truck is dirty!

 

Yeah, it's a mess right now. I still haven't cleaned it out from hunting season, lol. Plus the dog rides in the back. I steam-vac everything back there twice a year or so, but she muddies it up again in a hurry.
Besides, right now it's dark in the morning when I'm driving in to work, and dark in the evening when I'm driving home, so I can't tell that it's messy, haha!

 

Lol

 

My cars always get messy in the winter but who am I kidding it's always full of stuff.
