What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

Wheels seem to fit the hub just fine unlike 3rd gen tacos. So good news.
Plan to get tires Friday and I’ll mount them and align the truck Saturday.

 

My wife made a little container pond on the back porch and added goldfish. Fucking racoons screwed up all her plants and ate her fish. I added what I thought would help keep them out and she added more goldfish. Little shits still somehow balanced on top of the wire and ate all but one fish.

 

im in the process of building a pond. Had to make sure the toy still fits. I have 1 koi left i know an owl got one and a cat got another, but no clue what happened to the other 3. Also got minnows and tadpoles, feed em once a week with flakes and once a week with little pellets.

 

That’s awesome! I had him do a similar picture but when I offered to pay him he said no. Must have given him the idea to start charging.

 

Raccoons are brave and resourceful things. One time while camping in the Florida Keys as a kid, a coon ripped an entire bag of Doritos out of my hand before I even saw it. I watched it up in a tree with my flashlight for the next 20 minutes while it ate them and stared at me.

 

A broom? Shit, between them digging up my lawn and eating the pond fish, I'm about ready to lay in wait at night in full camo and face paint with my shotgun for the little bastards. Although I don't think my neighbors would enjoy the sound of a 12ga at 2am.

 

Lol. Oh man I could picture this

 

Are you in the valley? We only have them in certain parts of town in TTown, thankfully not in mine. Although I saw the mangeiest looking yote this afternoon!!! He looked like a fucking zombie, I waited for him to enter the street, and gunned it after him, he dipped into the side walk and I nailed it harder but he dashed into a yard. Ever since they got my childhood cat while I was at scout camp, I’ve disapproved of the low lifes

 

You need to get a husky. I don't even know if we have raccoons anymore. Lots of squirrels, but the last raccoon got it's neck broken when our husky "played" a little too rough.
There's some funny amount of stubbornness, strength, speed, and curiosity, that makes our little shit a killer. Not good for anything else.

Edit: the husky would probably just eat the metal screen and then the plants and then the fish. Mine eats anything off the trees(all low hanging cherries) or anything I put up like metal screen.

 

My uncle bought his tundra today. My tundra now has a cousin. New frame in 2015, 126k miles, rhino lined bed with access tonneau. Minty truck

 

Speedway between Harrison and Houghton.

 

Oh so you got some snobino canyon coons wrecking your place!

 

Yep

 

Is it true huskeys are “free spirited” and “runners”
My neighbor has one named Ollie, he’s gotten out more than once, but that’s kinda what he eluded to, don’t let them off the leash outside your yard or they’re gone!
We had a lab that would run away.......to the school down the street, to play with random kids playing ball.

 

really makes me wanna build a pond...just not sure if my girls (3 & 5) would appreciate the playhouse and sandbox to go missing

 

Hahaha that’s what made me have my illustration done. Had a photo that reminded me of that moment. Just had him add my dog

 

I left my side gate open one day when the wife and I were at work for a full 8 hours. Came back home and my Lab/Border Collie was just chilling on my front porch. Went back through my camera and the only times he moved was to follow the shade.

This dog is so damn smart, my wife taught him to whisper (like a tiny little “oof”) in less than an hour. I also used to have an area on the side of the house with a chain link gate. He saw me go through that gate once, ONCE, and since then I’ve never been able to keep him out. He will lift the handle with his snout and pull the gate towards him. That dude loses every single rational thought in his head when you pull out a tennis ball though.

 

There's a reason Lassie was always able to get Timmy help lol. Smart dogs those collies, poodles too

 

Every second of his life revolves around fetch. He’d make a hell of a bird dog if I could ever get him gun broken.

One day I came home and there was a dove shredded to bits in the back yard. The only rational explanation I have is that he snagged that sucker out of mid air. Whatever the dog equivalent of “hand-eye-coordination” is, he’s the master. I can throw a tennis ball straight up as hard as I can with his Chuckit and he will catch it every time. Blows my mind.

 

Now he needs to join Tundras.com

 

yea... right... lol. hes not very open to social media.. and this qualifies as that

 

Speaking from experience with city coons.... CCI .22 CB Shorts. All you hear is the hammer drop.

 

Add flares and camper

 

mine got off the leash once. I think he was more surprised than anything. Luckily we got him back quickly. He jumps our fence every now and then and doesn't know how to get back. Silly dog just has a prey instinct that takes him places he can't get back from. I imagine if he got out, he'd just "ooh squirrel!" Himself to the next town or under a car. When there's an animal, he doesn't know how to stay or anything.

This is why cans are so nice. Sub sonic 22 is just a hammer drop. My border/lab mix still goes crazy for it though. She wants to kill the gun because it's clicking at her.

My borador definitely has every bit of common sense that my husky lacks. There are some awesome combinations with labs, borders, and such. My next dog will be border collie with something like I have or something with shepherd. Huskies are cute, and interesting.

 

When our husky was around 1-2 years old we went hiking. When we got the the trail head we realized she had chewed completely through her leash during the 1.5 hour car ride. We took a chance that day and had her do the trail off-leash. It must have been her way of telling us she was ready. She's been hiking off leash ever since and that was 10 years ago. Sometimes she will get too far ahead but if we stop walking and yell for her, she comes flying back at warp speed. It's crazy how fast she still is. At 11.5 she can still jump up into the bed of my truck.

 

That is a real camper shell.

 

Anyone know where to source fender flares? I was thinking they might be a tricky find so maybe I should start my hunt. Are RC fender flares the same as AC though?

 

I got mine at a pick n pull

 

That I'm not sure but make sure you order or snag all the mounting clips too. At this point they are probably getting really brittle. Do you not have any, or are yours just in rough shape? You can always bring them back to life with new paint.
