    Not much better commuting from Ft.Myers to Naples everyday on 75 except FHP is using "packs" to nab 3rd lane control freaks and wigglers.....:cool:

    Luckily I am now on 2nd shift so I miss both the morning "race" and coming back north at 7 PM only finds "STUPID" in small numbers :thumbsup:

    Gotta love the idiots in south Florida. Luckily I'm out before the traffic. On the way home is a different story . 75 is slowly turning into 95. It's just a matter of time

    And the worst part is that the Tacoma has the best braking in its class...Sad to think about those other guys.

    True. It is everywhere but it seems to be more concentrated down here.

    I drive quite a bit out of Miami and I can tell you based on MY experience it is worse down here.

    Pretty good in Clewiston. Dodged some rain but all in all a good time for a free concert.

    Not familiar with Broward County, but there's a pretty good place in West Palm Beach. Alignment the old fashioned way. Happy with mine. Been there for years, and never heard anything negative.

    I'm in WPB at least 3 times a week but I think when I get my lift kit it will be a little to far to drive with the alignment all mess up. but I will take it into consideration. thank you.

    No worries. I drove mine about 75-100 miles before I had it aligned. Not sure if it made a difference or not, but my mindset was to let the suspension settle a little. I also had new tires, and didn't have any noticeable wear. If you don't find anywhere closer, Weber is off of I-95 Forest Hill Blvd exit on Dixie Hwy. Good luck with it.

    Thanks bud. I'm about order my fox lift and some rims. I hate to bring it to tire kingdom. They never got my last truck right. It drove like crap after 5 alignments. I gave up. I don't want to be that situation again. Thanks.
