PennSilverTaco's "Perfect 5-Lug Regular Cab" Build, Aspergers, and General BS MegaThread!

Yeah almost looks like some kind of watercraft.

 

@PennSilverTaco That salvage title Tacoma looked pretty bad.

 

Agreed.

The co-owner of the junkyard where I got those interior pieces had an '05 RC 5-lug with like 80K miles that technically would have been eligible for a frame replacement, but it had a rebuilt title and Toyota deemed it ineligible because of this; I believe he sold it for parts.

 

If you can get one cheap enough and make a trail or farm truck from it then it would be ok, that one was not far off from retail price and was all fucked up. You brought up a good point about the AC too, these trucks take that expensive 1234xyz or whatever its called, doubt the person that fixed it used the correct stuff.

 

I didn't even think of that; I was just worried about leaks in general! My dad's 2018 Yukon uses the R1234yf, and I think the rear A/C takes longer to cool off than the 2013 Honda Pilot we had before it, which had R134a of course. My dad's mechanic refuses to service R1234yf systems because he's in his 60s and would have to get training and buy expensive new equipment...

 

Not a fan of the muscle cars. I do like the 60’s Benz line up though.

 

Terrible vehicle.

 

Now that is a beautiful automobile.

 

Also the Plymouth Prowler is one of the ugliest cars of all time

 

Kinda hard to figure out what the designers were thinking unless they had a stockpile of shit they were just trying to get rid of.

 

I saw one that had a 6.4L HEMI in it once...

 

Those Prowlers were quite odd along with these too.

 

A former girl friend had one of these. Her boyfriend stole it and went on a crazy driving spree with it and destroyed it by flying into a ditch and it basically was ripped in half. She went from having a cross fire to a cross cut lol

 

This is the movie theater I typically go to; Before the coronavirus pandemic, I was going with my friend Greg every two or three weeks!

 

In the same shopping center; The grocery store on the left is obviously open, but I don’t think that new liquor store had a chance to open (all state stores are closed anyway ), and everything else is obviously closed...

 

I think Firebird’s might be open for takeout only...

 

Okay, so a bunch of my aspie friends are starting to go bit stir crazy too; My best friend has his own apartment and has been working from home for a month. I plan on meeting him at a huge car dealership called CarSense tomorrow afternoon; We're gonna take separate vehicles and stay six feet apart. CarSense is a lot like Carmax, but instead of being a nationwide chain, there are just three locations (The one in Hatfield, Pennsylvania that we've been going to for the better part of a decade; One in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania; One in Cherry Hill, New Jersey). It is right next door to the Toyota dealer where my dad bought my truck.

My friend with the apartment does not own a gaming system, and he also does not have cable; He is borrowing an N64 from my other best friend so he can have something to do. I am seriously getting fed up with this social distancing!

 

I just watched Winter Soldier for the first time in I don’t know how long, and this will forever be one of my favorite scenes...



Fury’s Tahoe has been rammed by police cars three times; The first impact to the side of the Tahoe was enough to deploy the airbag...

The SUV was also nailed like three times by a SWAT battering ram, and Swiss-cheesed by assault rifles...

Despite all of this, including significant front end damage, the A/C still works...

My kind of truck!

 

I still hope there will be some car shows at some point this year.

 

Finally replaced this door panel clip...
