Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Good man, love mine, had er since launch, battery life isn't the best but, best damn phone ive ever had.

 

I'm not going to replace mine until Elon starts selling phones...

 

As someone who works in IT by day, and seeing how he is on a speedrun to kill Twitter, this statement puts pain in my brain...

 

You had me until I got to the brandy and squirt part of the program

 

Nonbeliever! Heretic! You have been banned from the state of Wisconsin.

 

I'm not a brandy drinker either. If given a choice whiskey sour.


And I'll gladly move somewhere warmer....

 

Uhh.. not sure what you're trying to say? Here in Wisconsin, you can do an old fashioned two ways; sweet or sour. Brandy is tradition.

What's wrong with Squirt?

At least someone around here knows what's up.

Booooo!

Although, I plan on moving somewhere warmer eventually, also. But, you bet your ass I will continue making proper old fashions wherever I wind up.

 

I'd welcome another option beyond Android and IOS. For the last three phones I have had, the Android operating system has consistently been worse than the previous version. And, I'm not ready to jump on the Apple train.

 

It's not worth it. But the Google variation of Android that is on the pixel is pretty straightforward and stout.

 

I have the Pixel 6 Pro, and it is the biggest piece of garbage I've ever owned. A little better since the latest system update, but so far it has been the most glitchy phone I have ever had.

 

Even though that ECGS bushing was a big job, especially combined with the suspension install, it’s a very good thing that it’s done and over with! Hmmm, I have to keep in mind how helpful Jonathan is

I didnt realize ironman had a long travel. Do you know how much extra extended length the shocks have? When you get it up on the jacks to double check for cv axle binding, you might to jack up the rear to double check brake lines wont be getting pulled at full extension. Doubt it, because they probably would have included that in the kit, but it’s more for verification.

The last time I saw somebody jump into modding like you are doing, the guy ended up going all in. Next thing you know he was buying stickers left and right, doing diff oil changes on the workshop bench, and putting a transfer case on his transfer case so he could transfer while he transfers. That’s been pretty cool to watch. It’s going to be cool to watch your sticker collection grow too

I’m not that far from you, so if you ever need help holding your beer and passing you wrenches let me know!

 

It will be interesting to see how that plays out.

 

I won't be able to make it, but here's the info if anyone else wants to go have some fun.

 

If we're gonna flex on sticker collections, I need to get a few pics from my garage... I'll try to remember to do that tonight. I've been modding vehicles for a while.

My buddy's Saab is going in the garage tonight so we can tear up his front end suspension. I'll have to roll the jack down the driveway to check droop measurements first. Brake lines in the back looked fine when we had the axle down pretty low and the shocks were at full extension.

Might be in my head, but the ride actually seemed better this morning. Almost 100 miles on the new setup.

Jonathan is a great resource! Very much appreciated having him there. You are very welcome in my garage too! Beer fridge is always stocked!

 

I suddenly need to find some good carpet padding for the garage floor. Heck I only put down cardboard if something’s dripping and believe me I feel as I get older.

this are some good points. We didn’t have any problems with bolting up the UCA to the spindle bracket on the driver side so I’m not concerned about that joint being stressed at full droop.

I’m guessing it’s just going to take a bit for everything to settle and bed in.

 

not to be pedantic but it's probably "extended travel" not a true "long travel" if it's still stock width -- it just gives a bit more droop I'd think.

Glad to see the ironman kits are solid though!

 

One word. Blackberry. Oh shizzz that's Android now never mind.

Ok two words. Windows Phone

 

You bet your ass I like comfort!

Still alive, just MIA due to work consuming my soul. Catching up on your progress and it's inspiring - looking forward to how you like the setup.

On top of everything, I got this today fml (scribbles on address because internet):



Edit: speaking of ass, a belated happy birthday @Thatbassguy

 

Thank you!

And, my condolences on the jury duty.
