The Florida Panhandle and Surrounding Area Tacos Thread Thing

Oh man, you'll do great. My first time out I was totally stock except a set of all terrains. I handled everything with ease, so you'll be fine too. Just so you know the trails can be narrow and you're paint will get scratched up. Nothing that won't buff out, but the sound will make you cringe.

 

Awh shit, almost in my neck of the woods lol

 

I am hoping 4wheel drive and a locker will make up for the lack of tire capabilities for this trip.

 

Mud tars ftw!

 

Step one in bumper removal and installation. Find cold beer and favorite coozie. Step two. Crack Cold beer and take giant swig, two swigs are acceptable if it's hot as balls outside. Step three. Stare at bumpers while thinking best plan of attack. Step four. Set beer down and do exact opposite of plan of attack.

 

if I really felt like it, id drive up there and help, but I still feel like crap lol

 

It's all good, my buddy is on his way! It's not lining up when I try to do it myself.

 

well....of course lol, it's not a one person job haha

 

Man, That looks good. The bumper is not to bad either.

 

man it's gonna be weird not driving the Tacoma offroad, I still am kind of weery about not having a winch lol. makes me feel safe out there with it haha, I need to get one sometime for the pickup

 

15 year old brakes.

 

Man I love my yeti coozie

 

Yeti makes it cooler.

 

If you need an expensive coozie to keep your beer cold longer you're not drinking fast enough

 

Ok so.....I may not be able to take the 80 if I can't figure out and fix my damn oil pan. Fucking leaking like crazy and found out there is no more oil in the motor. Barely any left when I got back to base and by the time I got home, no more on the dip stick. So Ill probably drain the rest, scrape the gasket off and throw on the stupid cork gasket I bought and swap back to Dino oil. If I'm not able to at least stop it from leaking by tomorrow night, I'm brining the tacoma with instead lol

 

Good luck man, hope you get it figured out and get to experience 4 wheel drive this weekend.

 

Here's plan B. Grab a piece of bumper and yank the ever loving shit out of it to find attaching hardware

 

ehhhh, I mean....ive wheeled with my Tacoma for the last 3 years almost......if I did have to take her out....im not really gonna be disappointed lol. id rather not blow a motor up than try to experience 4x4 for the first time and possibly blow it up or seize it up haha

 

Supervisor checking my work.

 

Ill think about it more tomorrow while at work though, ill change the gasket and oil again and run it and see what happens lol, depending on how that goes, we'll see. I may end up just daily driving it until september when I motor swap THEN take her out for a spin.....I think I may do just that so i dont blow the poor motor up haha. If I do end up taking the Tacoma, ill be happy knowing I have the winch with

on another note, I may have 2 of my neighbors possibly joining us on sunday, both chevy colorados though lol. an older one and a brand new one haha
