    I still want to start my truck without the key all the time. Keys are such a hassle. And I am constantly looking for an empty cupholder now.

    Where I live, having “two chicks at the same time” has a completely different meaning...

    Well, you don’t need to be married to have two chicks at the same time, so “no”

    I didn't read the entire 8 pages but it's clear to me there seems to be a lack of knowledge of how drum brakes work. The key work is "self energizing". Every seen a really big truck with disk brakes?

    Would it be nice to have disc brakes in the back? Sure. Do I really care that I don't have disc brakes in the back? No, not really. The drums work and they will likely last the life of the truck. I don't notice the difference in 99.9% of my daily use.

    Well you shouldn’t have two chicks at the same time if you’re married... unless the other chick is her sister

    Yes, because the braking performance is what makes the Rubicon Rubicanonicle.

    This is great. Does anyone have a guide on how to do a CMC on a Yaris?

    Freightliner has been offering optional air disc brakes since 2008. What do you mean how do they deal with the trailer brakes? You can run a tractor that has disc brakes with a trailer that has drum brakes.

    Our esteemed colleague @Stocklocker, the 3rd gen voice of reason, gave the most convincing explanation of why the Tacoma still has rear drum brakes-MANUAL TRANSMISSION OPTION.

    Can we get back to shitposting?

    Thank you
