    The Day My Grocery Getter Became a Track Hero!

    Track days are awesome. I did my first one in a 350Z I got for free on 9 year old street tires and had so much fun, I built the car for the track. It was damn near as fun as a desert day. I’ve done a couple in my V too and Streets has been on my list.

    2023 Ibis Ripmo AF

    I just picked up a carbon Ripmo and love it. I came from a 26” hardtail, so made a big upgrade. My engineer let me test the bike while in Denver and then he shipped it to me. This pic was after the climb up Maryland Mountain. The next morning we did Rutabaga, which was by far the gnarliest...

    T-Juan - `98 Toyota T100 4x4, 5-spd

    Super late response to this one, but just in case you still need to plate yours in. Here is my Tundra with bent as shit carrier bearing mounts. I had the Bruno Fab billet Carrie bearing, which I think caused the fuckey seen here as the Spicer unit I ran before never caused a problem, despite...

    Health/Fitness

    I’d go for a real bike so you can be outside while training. It’ll be so much more enjoyable, especially if you engaged the kids too and setup weekly rides with them. It’s hard to be quality time with the kids combined with fitness activities.

    For Sale 2005 Toyota Tundra LT

    He’s looking to get something newer. I’ll keep an eye out for anyone else interested though. I’m tempted to buy this and sell mine, but mine would be harder to move.

    For Sale 2005 Toyota Tundra LT

    When were the LBJ and timing belt done last? Does it pass smog? Was the engine rebuilt or replaced with a used one? In either case, why? What do the dash and roof look like under the carpet and wrap? How many previous owners and where was the truck before?

    Short Course Style mid mud flaps/rock guards?

    While I’m a fan of their function, they look like a maxi pad hanging out of a skirt. I’m out.

    Are you a manufacturer fanatic?

    I used to considered myself a GM guy, but my list is dominated by Toyotas. When it came time for a new truck, I chose a Tundra even after considering and driving all the full size trucks at the time. 84 Toyota Pickup - single cab, long bed, manual tans, windows, and steering. This truck made...

    Need help with 4 runner spindle issue

    Weld it in. Mine from TC has been welded in for longer than the 9 years I’ve owned the truck and have never had an issue.

    Health/Fitness

    I’m 6’2” and used to weigh 270 lbs about 20 years ago, never having seen the inside of a gym. I was a fat fuck to my core, eating out sometimes twice a day (so I was also broke). When I decided to get my shit together, I started eating those lean frozen meals full of bullshit, but low on...

    AGM VS conventional wet cell battery

    Yes it’s prorated, I just did it with a battery for my other truck. Just after the one year mark was $40, a far cry from buying a new one and cheap insurance.

    AGM VS conventional wet cell battery

    I’m going with a Costco AGM. $200-ish and plan to warranty it every other year for peace of mind. I’ve been running a Costco lead acid for years on the desert truck with zero issues.
