    No, one was out sick and then passed it to the other one. There was always one going to school while the other one stayed home. Both of them are finally going to school at the same time!!!

    Yup....moving from MA to RI was a shock with regards to taxes...and job market....and horrible local government.

    I do like living on the east bay in the summer, but like many I know here we're looking to head to a state that is warmer, because the 1/2 a$$ed winters are just annoying.

    Glad the kiddos can get back to the swing of things. Back into the germ pit they go!

    We moved in 2016 ish, job market and local gov't have been decent enough to us. I know that's a newer trend though.

    But yeah, I like it if I wanted to stay here - less cold, less snow, but still cold enough to keep you cooped up inside and still shorter days that don't allow you to do much with them when you work a normal 9-5 :\

    I GOT CAROLINA IN MY MIND

    i hear you there, we had one with a cold/fever one half of the week then the other with Croup the second half of the week. Petri dish of daycare is super quick to send them home (and still get paid) over the whole last week.

    Any suggestions for taking off the TRD OR skid plate for an oil change? Doing it Sunday. I'm thinking I can probably use my jack to get the skid plate down, won't need to lift the truck (not rotating tires, only 1k).

    Exactly.
    This is footage from last year, and it was actually one of the smaller turnouts that they've had.
    Best to mute the video, though. Typical lousy 'free videomaker' music.

    Should be pretty light, it's probably lighter than the factory skid on my 2011 Tundra Rock Warrior

    Just unbolt it. Its real light and has little hooks to keep the front from failing on you.
