New Mexico Owners BS Thread

Good to meet you too! Cool truck!

 

hey everyone,
I am looking into purchasing my first Tacoma but want to have a pre inspection on it first. What are some good independent Toyota mechanics in town. I live in the heights. look forward to seeing you guys around town.
thanks,
Ryan

 

anyone ever order stuff from 4wheelonline? been 2 days and still haven't shipped 2 spare wheels?

 

I don't know, but Toyota dealership might not be the worst idea... There are some very good pre-shopping guides on here that can help! I am sure someone on here knows a good place though.

Good luck...

 

Born & bred NM'can!

 

Thanks for the response Chris. I'll look up the first gen buyers guide on the forum and do some reasearch tonight. I have always been taught not to use a dealership for a pre-inspection, maybe that's just me being bias.

thanks,
Ryan

 

Try Keith Craig at Keith's Wheel Alignment & Auto Repair; he does all my Tacoma work. He's honest & ethical & knows his stuff. 553-3789, address is 828 Arno NE.

 

Let me know next time you want to go, I'd love to find more places around here. Nice looking truck too.

 

Yeah for sure and thanks it's a work in progress. I also believe you work 2 buildings down from me, if it's the same truck I seen.

 

ah shoot, looks like im back from a few years off of doing literally nothing to the ole taco. glad to see some old friends still on here. cloudy, tomtom, pigger, bigfishallday, hellloooo

i need to do some general maintenance before any more mods though (brakes, steering, susp).
oh and i live in santa fe now

 

Good to see you here again!

 

Glad to see you drop in. Heard about the Santa Fe move but, you know, I FB stalk you. If you need any help on the maintenance, place to do it, tools, etc give a shout out. Me and Mojavemadman are starting to do more hiking and such. Always welcome.

 

Wife and I are planning on doing some camping up in one of the National Forests near Cloudcroft next month. Any suggestions aside from 223 trail?

Not sure if I'll have my sliders bolted up yet as I just ordered them and there is a lead time.

 

Anybody in Roswell? Just moved here a few months ago. Have a base 4wd v6. Just put some bilstein 5100s on yesterday.

 

If anyone has 245/70/16 tires to trade I have a set of 265/75/16 Goodyear duratracs that all have over 95% tread left I purchased for my fathers her but ended up being to big I would like to trade for anyone's smaller all terrains with good tread life left thanks!

 

Looks like there is two of us haha man its been a few years for me. I think pigger might remember .

Anyway I just bought a new toy and was wondering if any of you guys had some experience with this sucker. It's a 1978 dolphin 4 speed speed with about 70,000 miles "according" to the previous owner but it's in pretty damn good shape.

 

Can't wait to see you wheel that.

But really.................gonna be doing some exploring?
