That is cut for now. It was a full stock bumper when I grabbed it this am. I have seen some that are cut at the bump outs and just left unfinished.

 

We had fun yesterday

 

Many more pictures to come. They are tough to post from my phone

 

TW problems

 

Hey Eric, how's that bumper coming along?

 

(my garage)--you're gonna need a bigger bucket of popcorn

 

Are you having second thoughts about it or just no time to work on it?

 

First day back at the gym in 2+weeks this morning. So tired but felt good.

Gonna try to get back into my 530am routine, but it's going to be tough.

 

Hey guys, I'll deliver this!

That's a good deal, someone needs to jump on it.

 

the latter--I have so much shit to install/do on the '11 and my T4R but every time I try to start something else takes priority

 

My money tree is wilted

 

I started running again to get ready for the 5k and it hurts but feels awesome. It also gets better each time out

 

I love having to put on a happy face to people when I'm screaming on the inside.

I was helping someone move today and I foolishly thought the giant dresser in the bed was heavy enough to not move. Leaving the apartment was so rutty it was like the f-ing Rubicon trail and it went over the side and scratched up my flare, tail light and bedside. That's a $1,000 mistake. Never again am I helping anyone move, I'll write them a check for a U-Haul first.

 

Yikes, that sucks! I get teased by my friends because of the way I tie things down in the bed. I basically tie things in so that, if the truck does a tuck and roll, they'd stay in the bed. Sorry about your truck, that really sucks!

 

I didn't want to really do it in the first place, but I felt obligated. I tried to be so careful (usually I could do the same as you with 8 million straps) but in a moment of "i just want to get this over with" I misjudged. I really don't want the truck painted, but seeing the scrape will eat at me every day until it's fixed. Thing JUST turned 2,000 miles. I priced out the flare, tail lamp and protective film at $330, and it's going to be at least $500 to paint the bed side. Argh, I'm SO annoyed.

I'm serious though, the next time someone asks to use my truck, I will literally give them $200 to not have to use it. I will gladly lift and move boxes, just not in my truck.

 

Happens with my rig all the time too, especially with dump runs of construction debris. yeah softoppers and nails/splintery wood/jagged everything don't mix




But, I always feel like because I have an awesome Toyota I should help everyone

 

Anyone have any interest in a brand new UWS black diamond plated toolbox? Open to trades and reasonable offers. Looking for rotopax, also have 2013 wet okole seat covers for the BACK seats of an access cab

 

How much ya looking to get for that? I wonder if it'll work with my bed rack...
