Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

I was surprised how well the fluid film held up after 5 years sandwiched between the sliders and frame. Pristine.

 

That's amazing! Nice when a product lives up to the claims.

 

In other news, went to farm & fleet with the intention of buying one thing...ended up leaving with seven things.

I'm sure none of you can relate to this.

 

I visit the one in Oconomowoc frequently. Yesterday I went there to get some Turtle Wax, and left with a garden hose, spray nozzle, 2 shirts, Turtle Wax, and microfiber towels.

 

I made the mistake of checking out the snack aisle. But damn, the jerky quality and price are hard to beat.

 

This is what I ended up with using a sheet of 3/8" plywood, carpet runner and patience. Made a section that lifts out to access the underseat storage. Since this picture there is now a subwoofer box occupying most of it

 

Sign me up. Currently heat index of 108 here

 

At least you remembered to get what you went there for.. usually I don’t lol

 

Been there.

 

Sooo, I had a slow leak going on in my rear passenger tire.

Apparently, a rock got wedged between the brake and the wheel during my recent beach shenanigans. I actually remember hearing a grinding noise at one point, but it stopped on its own and I didn't think anything of it.

I'm guessing that it spun around when it finally popped loose and caused this indentation and a pinhole leak. It made a pretty good groove in the wheel as well.



It's been moved to spare duty for the time being. I'm going to look into getting the wheel repaired, if the damage isn't too bad.

 

The snack aisle is hard to avoid. Chocolate covered peanuts are my weakness.

 

That sucks... never seen a wheel damaged in that way.

 

Well it's obvious...this is the sign to go to 37s.

Edit: that sucks though dude, hope it's not too bad.

 

At a time when US Snow Plow drivers and emergency worker rolls are at their historic lowest per capita....

Best sliders on the market

 

Also, PSA to clean your engine bay - mine was nasty after the last pipeline trip, so just finished a partial detail.

Photo for your pleasure.

 

I'm gonna have a busy winter

 

My buddy up north said a county near him is offering up to 35.00hr plus vacation for six months of work.

 

OCD much?

damn that looks nice!

 

There's still grime further in, but it's good enough - didn't feel like spending more than an hour or so.

 

Do you use a pressure washer or what?
