Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Not a bad idea, it would save me a trip to Reno to get it retuned...

 

We have tuners all over the place. Were you at? I’ll get you the help you need my friend!

 

I was being a smart ass. I'm in Fallon.

 

I doubt anyone here would be interested but it's worth a shot.
My front bumper is for sale. Custom Fabbed by @brodi_wodie on Instagram. $950 painted satin black.

 

when someone asks how wide they are and what your LT setup is, do you just say + alot

 

Haha always

 

"Does this truck make my bumper look big?"

 

Dang man, what are your plans for the front now? Maybe the 3rd bumpers a charm?

 

Hopefully I'm planning on an ultra high clearance front bumper with a relocated front cross member.
Basically identical to the one I have currently, just moved up higher

 

Also what body shops do you guys recommend? Looking to color match my fiberglass

 

Oh hell yeah I've seen the war fab kits of something like that, definitely badass.

 

One of the main reasons I’ve stuck with 31’s over the years. Love to be able to cruise at 85 mph down those desolate NV highways steering with my pinky. Although I saw Falken came out with some 255/86-16 skinny 33’s so that might be my next tire.

 

I remember leaving the Reno area and seeing the sign "End Speed Zone".

Then Nixon happened.

Then came Van Halen "I can't drive 55"
(Edit: Sammy Hagar.)

 

I thought that was Sammy Hagar that did that song in the early 80’s.

 

Probably. My brain cells weren't utilized in that period of time.

I was working at Grove Valve and Regulator on Greg St then... BTW
Before that was A&B Precision Metals.

 

What benefits does the tune provide for a stock taco? I’m new to taco’s. I just bought mine a few weeks ago at Reno Toyota. I’m not planning on doing a bunch of mods to it, just keep it fairly stock for reliability.

 

I had just got my drivers license and driving my Willys CJ-5. That wouldn’t go much over 55, but it would climb anything in low gear.

 

^^^^^^^ Very cool.

I was out of the Navy by then.

 

Hey Mike, very generally speaking it just improves the overall drivability of your truck. Gets rid of all the unnecessary shifting, gets smoother idle, improved shift points, a bit of added TQ/HP …we don’t guarantee it but most people get better fuel economy too. Shoot me a DM if you want more details. I’ve been in the business for over 5 years now and can let you know what’s best for you and your truck.

 

Thanks. I have noticed that it does have trouble being able to find the right gear at times, like going up Mt. Rose hwy.
