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

I'm of the same mind, to each their own. I know plenty of people who drink, some more than others, and that's fine with me even though I abstain.

I long thought about going for a WWF event..never did but got to see The Damned, Rancid, and the Original Misfits there.

I could see it if they saw someone underage outside talking to you maybe but otherwise yeah that's stupid

 

So I did what any capitalist consumer would do; I voted with my feet and took my business elsewhere!

 

FYI, they're building a brand new Wawa with a gas station just down the street, and there's already a "for lease" sign outside the current building (I think that specific Wawa has been there since sometime in the 1970s); I think the parking lot at that Wawa totally sucks, and can't wait for the new one to open! Plus, I'm hoping it'll force the other gas stations in an and around the borough to lower their prices a little bit!

 

Our temperature range here is ridiculous. Heat indexes over 100 in the summer and wind chills of -50 in the winter. Thankfully those two events don't occur on the same day.

 

After work today, I am going to the local stealership to price out a cruise control lever...

I got the intermittent wiper stalk from this dealer (Thompson Toyota in Doylestown) as well, for just under $140; I was not comfortable swapping out the part at the time, and it just so happened that my truck was going into the body shop to have some minor damage repaired, so I got the body shop to do it and only got charged an addition in $10 in labor for it. Almost four years later, I'd say that after the backup camera it is the best money I spent on my truck!

What's strange is that the intermittent wiper stalk was less than $140, but a headrest for my truck is about $500! I'm hoping that just the lousy cruise control lever is relatively cheap (like, $150 or less).

Once the cruise control is installed in my truck, I will merge this thread with my MegaThread!

 

Also gonna price out OEM (i.e. 50-state legal) fog lights...

 

@Taco critter

What do you say to doing the fog light install early next spring?

 

Maybe even during the winter if it's mild enough; You don't need an iPod hookup, do you? Want an early 2000s Pioneer stereo CD player for the '91 Toyota pickup?

 

I got one from that one guy in Oregon, along with two rather hazy OEM fog lights, but I lost the damn harness (or more than likely my dad accidentally threw it away); Can you send me a picture of what the factory harness looks like?

 

I never have much luck with that because a shitload of stuff comes up; I seem to remember it being green wires with a little white plastic connector at the end?

 

It was from the 60's.

 

Link?

 

^^^ This encounter from back in April 2013 still confuses and angers me to this day...

 

Hope you changed out you service cable to a 4/0 and if your disconnect is outside wired your interior panel as a sub panel.

 

Going by this picture, I've put over 2,400 miles on my truck in just under two months!

 

I "liked" two pictures of your truck in the thread; Is that how I'm supposed to vote?

 

Next year I'm submitting mine; 5-lugs seem to be thoroughly underrepresented!

 

And in between doing various tasks at work, I got it done! Anymore threads consolidated into this one should be from about October 2020 onward, so there should be little to no issues with the linked posts "shifting"...

 

Only $110 and I'm not dropping $1,500 on a station wagon, so probably gonna do it; I'd really like an idea of what some of my truck would look like before I go through with it though...

 

@ChadsPride

Long time, no see!
