    We got a fair amount of snow for 12 hours! When I finished my wheel bearings last night I got stuck backing the truck out of the garage and had to use 4WD to not hit dads truck lol

    Need to replace the inner seal and an abs sensor!

    My light came on intermittently so I tried to clean the sensors. While attempting to remove the first one I broke it. So now I have one broken one plus whatever was causing the light in the first place. Blah.

    Mine was intermittent right up til about a week ago. It was missing the little rubber seal, so water leaked in and rotted it. Sucks

    Im debating just cutting them all out and pulling the bulb from the dash. Lots of cars dont have abs including 1st gen tacomas so it wouldnt really matter much.

    Nah, I'm not a big fan of it! This is my first vehicle with ABS and I think it's stupid. Just something else to go wrong, simple stupid is the way to go! I should have bought an 80's pickup

    I wanted an 80s pick up but they were all rotten. The few that weren't were very expensive show-style trucks, which I didn't want either.

    Oh boy....my packing skills leave much to be desired. A trailer and wiring harness for one would be very usefull right about now.

    Bed of the truck - its all i can do to close my tonneau cover
    Back seats - doors just close
    Front - just enough room for me and the cat.

    Still have a tv and about 2-3 boxes to stuff in there. FML

    I would leave a space behind the seat empty. That way if you get tired you can pull over and snooze slightly less awkwardly. Still uncomfortable haha

    Exactly like the cartoons!! Its now 11pm(ive been up for 21hours) and truck is still not packed. Im giving up for the night and that early departure time tomorrow has gone out the window. Probably more like noon. Which means ill probably show up sunday not saturday.

    Its not forgetting thats the problem its what do i leave behind because i cant fit it. Already made a few calls of things i wont be taking.

    Even worse when you only have one taco to fit it all in too! A cap rather than a cover would do good right now!
