What have you done to your ride lately?

[Silverback]

Update on wifes car. Body shop called. $3700! Mirror was $1400, both drivers side glass to be replaced (front glass is $835, rear glass was $405... those assholes in the glass industry. ) Small dent in rear driver side door. Plus re-tint the windows.

There are cheaper ways to kill coyotes. Next time just buy a tanned hide from a trapper and avoid trying to hit it with your car.

Suicidal coyote... hard to avoid hitting it when it hits you.

$100 deductible FTW.

We dropped off her car about 4 hours later at a body shop and she got a nice Cadillac smaller SUV rental. She went back along the same route and did not see the coyote. Guessing he lived long enough to crawl away. Or glancing blow he got up, relocated his face/shoulder and walked off. LOL

Seen a coyote take 6 rounds of 3" duck loads, roll up each time and keep on running. Them critters are tough.

Foam cannons are kinda cool. It's what all the cool kids on the internet do now.

Looks like the end of a bukakke vid.

22mag to the face puts them down quick

Lord have mercy. Could have bought a used bimmer for that!

So my EBC brake pads and rotors arrived last night. I went to put them on and found that the rotors shipped to me are almost 3/4" smaller than the rotors that are on my 4Runner. The brake pads fit fine. I am trying to see if I have some version of the Tundra Brake Upgrade from the PO but do not remember anything about it being said. At least I am running new pads for now; the old rotors are not bad overall I was just going to replace them for good measure.

Yeah if I were you I'd get some OEM rotors and just run those.

After doing some digging and running the VIN on my 4Runner it appears it did come with the larger Limited and some SR5 brake package from Toyota. So it has the 318mm rotors (12.5") instead of the 297mm rotors (11.7"). So I will chalk this up to a lesson learned and probably hook my Dad up with the EBC rotors when the time comes to do his brakes.

Does this count as my ride? Cleaned up and shined up after neglect all winter. Put 5 hours on em yesterday.

Got my truck aligned this weekend. It's weird to have a straight steering wheel again

Bought a tow rig. The Tacoma will tow no more..

 

[Silverback]

the tow mirrors are not out.. fail

I concur. You bought a dodge, embrace it and fold them mirrors out with pride.

 

[tx_shooter]

@Boomtacoma01 so you were able to hang onto the Tacoma for now or traded it in? That is heck of a tow rig to move up to.
