We easily do that with our work trucks, when the oilfields booming we can easily see 6hrs of windshield time a day

WOW, that's a lot of miles a year..

Holy crap... 30k per year!! How far do you have to drive to get to work?

I usually average 300-400 miles per week. I drive 30 miles a day round trip; but I drive a lot at work getting to different customer offices. Also I have been known to drive across state/country on the weekends on beer runs. This truck has been to the East Coast, West Coast, and South Coast already. I just need an excuse to take it up to the northern border and it will have pretty much traveled the US.

I guess I tend to drive a lot. lol My Harley has 60k miles on it too; although I bought it with 18k on it back mid-06.

Sounds like you are driving to Chicago for our beer run later this year.

I used to love to drive. Now I get "driving tourette's syndrome"... "Look at this fucking asshole..."..... "asshole"..... "fucking asshole". lol

You and I are the same. I have started driving in a manner to let someone know they are doing something stupid. Horn, finger, hi beams, riding someone's ass in the fast lane, and don't forget not letting someone over when they try to take a quicker lane only to butt their way in line. Those are all daily/weekly practices for me. Not trying to be an asshole but trying to educate people to pull their head out of their ass.

This is a competition that I hope to lose! I plan on sending my daughter to college in my Tacoma, she is only 8 years old.

Me too! I have 36k on my 2010, and that's with a 10% odometer error on the high side with the 4.56 gears lol

I'm with you Rob. I told my 6 year old I'm saving my truck for her, and she seems fine with it. So, I recorded that conversation. In case the old Tacoma is still around in 10 years.

Spent some more moneys on my pig. Some longer shocks for the rear to finally match the travel of the shackle flip I installed a year ago lol

I like those shock mounts, where did you get them look similar to the ruffstuff bomb proof mounts I've got

Those are slick mounts! I need to find some new bushings for my Fox rear shocks. They where gone last weekend when I pulled the shocks off.

Thanks, excited to get them burned in and flex it out!

The mounts are from TMR, the thing I liked most about them was that they came with the grade 8 hardware and spacers to run various sized shock mounts. If you price out the spacers and hardware these are probably a little cheaper than the ruff stuff bomb proof mounts and Tim was real quick to answer a question I had about them (they are cut for a 3" axle tube). Wish these guys made more non-jeep stuff lol

If you are interested in a set they sent me a 10% off coupon for my next purchase PM me and I'll send it over to ya.

Poly performance probably has the shock bushings. I'd recommend converting to heims though :)


Is that your bed? Do you live with your parents? :)

That's the spare bed down the basement where I store all my "to be installed" parts, but I do live with my parents :o lol

Poly is exactly where I ordered new ones. I should have went with heims. Next time. :)


lol. I was kidding about living with your parents, it's just that bed spread looked like something you would find in a teenagers room. Lucky guess I suppose. :D.
