Northern Virginia Roll Call

No surveillance footage. I had been out fishing just a few hours before. So it had only been in the driveway a few hours. My wife then pulled into the driveway, came in the house and asked me if I wanted to go to Spelunkers. When we came out of the house, the raptor lights were on. She said they weren't on when she pulled into the driveway. She would've definitely seen them on if they were on when she pulled in because she pulled right up in front of it with her Lexus maybe it's

 

I need to join you with the boys for fishing one day.. but yeah not me. Let me know about them eggs or come by the house on the way home today.

 

Did some social distancing at Lake Anna yesterday. I didn't visit any restaurants or breweries but it was crazy to see parking lots full of cars and outdoor seating areas full of people.

 

Archie! Look at those ears, tuned for fucking SPEEEEED!

 

You know when someone wants to tell you they are listening to you, so they say they're "all ears?" Well, that's Archie: all ears, all the time. Most of the time they are more like sails. But when he pins them back (for aerodynamics) the little fucker sure can fly.

 

We are having a cookout and play day at our house near Harrisonburg VA. If you are interested in the details message me

 

I'm working today thru Wednesday, so I won't be home for eggs

I see you ignored our votes for all black seats.

 

I did. I know its really stupid, but i like it.

 

Honestly that’s all that matters

 

I preferred the two tone.

 

I mean, the entire interior is black and grey and the harnesses are as well (no other choice) so i figured why not.

 

Too much black and you're living in space.

 

@113tac always lurking....

 

Haha that’s what I do best

 

Sup Nova?
So yesterday I made the trip south to pick up my goodies. It was a long freaking day, or maybe I am just getting old and hate to admit it.

First stop, after a little less than 2 hours on the road I meet @EagleUSMCRet and picked up my battery cage. Thank you again Sir! It was definitely a great opportunity to meet you and I look forward to meeting again again once this is all over. I want to hear about your service and pilot experiences. This battery cage is going to be absolutely perfect for my dual battery & solar setup.

Then it was time to scoot off to Dulles to meet @Darkgoatracer. I look around for where I put my Covid proof gloves and don't see them anywhere. Shit, I remembered I put them on the top of the tailgate cap, so I had to quickly circle back! Found them, lying in the street where they blew of, DUH, now I'm off.

On the map Dulles looked a lot closer to Alexandria. It's not terribly far but not right around the corner either. I should have made a pit stop to the little boys room before leaving. When I finally got to the destination @Darkgoatracer had to point me to the bathroom immediately. At least I had hoped I was in the right place and it was Nick I was talking to. What a great young man and my new BFF! He took a lot of time to show me the very cool cars he had at the shop where he was. That ragtop convertible Camaro is a wet dream come true! Of course my motorhead wife said this thread is useless without any pics and called me an ass for not taking any so I could show her.

Nick was working on painting his new suspension setup so I got to see his skills in person. Looked professional to me. I was thoroughly impressed. I got to see his bad ass Taco in person too finally. Now I know what a Supercharged Tacoma sounds like.

Then we looked at his wrap samples on the truck. In the end we both agreed the digicam was the best option but not the white. We also agreed that a larger pattern would be better than a smaller pattern.

Overall, with the help of @EagleUSMCRet @Darkgoatracer and @ilubtimmyhos ,and regardless that is was nearly 400 miles and over 5 hours of driving, I'd say it was a damn nice day and very very cool, and super productive. I want to thank each of you again for your extreme generosity and kindness. This forum never cease to amaze me!

 

Dang bro! You shoulda let me know. I would've come over to Nick's place to meet ya too. I work right down rt. 606 from him. I had absolutely nothing to do at work today. A lot of driving, but glad your day was productive!

 

I was there yesterday Bill.

But next time we'll make a party out of it. Yea long day for a 58 year old, especially one that stays up until 1 am on this damn forum. I got real sleepy in that last hour but stopped for some cold coffee. Monster has a 300mg caffeine mocha drink that hit the spot.

 

This is always the right answer.

It actually doesn't look as much like a babies car seat from the front. It's definitely gonna look great installed.

The first thing I noticed in my Pro was the all black interior and how much nicer it is than the two tone of my last Taco.
