1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

given your name and post, I know you are on ARF

 

Iron Eyes Cody….I like it.

it’s mine now.

 

“It’s impossible”, said pride.
“It’s risky”, said experience.
“It’s pointless”, said reason.
“Give it a try”, whispered the heart.

 

I knew you'd be around to claim from the past.

Companies wouldn’t survive unless there were people to buy the latest products. The money lost would also have to be offset by increasing the price on wear and tear replacement items.

Unfortunately too many companies make items so they’re not serviceable and have to be tossed for a new item to replace it. Maybe if companies were incentivized to not do this it would be the first step in lowering the trash output they generate.

 

No. You are not allowed to Nickname yourself. Those are the unwritten rules.

 

Speaking of, where’d my BubbaBurger go? I was grilling on Saturday Night and think it slipped off the BBQ?

 

I think I have an idea for today's poll....

 

So the funny thing about #5 is that these morons sell their gas guzzler to buy something else. Key word: sell. They don't crush it to destroy the gas guzzler, somebody else is driving it. They didn't offset shit. Morons.

 

I am not sure who is making random comments to meet an agenda. I didn't stay at a holiday inn express but I do know how to play around with the data on the NOAA site. Is that an acceptable source?

Also you want me to take out some of our weather and ignore it because it does not happen often? Why would we ignore history?

I see you are using the age old trick of picking your dates strategically. Why do the dates on that page start in 1968? Why not use all the data we have? Why not look at the bigger picture?

You want to ignore history but my head is in the sand? I am here looking for truth.

 

It is written if you read the script from Young Guns 2. You have to earn a nickname.

 

Nicknames are overated, proof -

Billy: "Buckshot George", that's your name. You wanted a name, that's it. "Buckshot George". It's a good name.

Hendry: My name is Hendry William French.

Billy: That's a good name too.

 

is everyone here familiar with a go wire? (Some call it a nitrous wire, or what have you.) Pulled to physically overpower the guvment, and throw rods and disintegrate cast flywheels.

 

Should start coming back down. 1000 board foot pricing has dropped in half since the beginning of May. Peaked at $1686 and is currently $804. For perspective pre Covid it was $3-400.

 

Unfamiliar, pulling the wire pulls on what exactly?

 

Direct control of throttle. This one grabs the governor arm, but once you’re governed, tug on that bad boy and theres nobody left to keep you from hurting things.

 

Copy that, now you just need to rig up a fast and furious tach with appropriate RPM labeling to know when you're in the flaming red zone of death.

 

Redline for cast components is a very stock 3600. I get nervous at 4500, but with billet rod and flywheel they rev pretty good. (That is speaking of flathead briggs expierience, i dont know how an ohv tecumseh spins) this is dads toy, i just get to play with it. I ordered a 23mm slide carb, so ive gotta reroute the linkages. (He blames the throttle on his ‘spill’)

 

Thanks for the update. I had not heard anything on this in a bit. Prices are still high around here and I want to build some stuff. Does anyone want to see my trash shed?

 

You show me yours, ill show you mine.

 

Well said, their smug sense of morality is their only concern. Besides, you're not supposed to notice their ninja mind tricks.

 

@Tundra2 or anybody with 2nd gen sequoia, can you get a measurement of the letters on the rear lift gate spelling sequoia.I need the height specifically, and the length. Black emblems for my wife’s 07 are impossible to find.

thanks in advance

 

I felt bad for Billy during that scene.

 

You can remove the governor can't you? Never seen a wire on it but thats almost a good idea. Would be better to rig on a brake handle instead so you aren't riding one handed.

 

Yes!

 

I think its the one that kinda floats with the engine RPM's. You want it to work right most of the time to keep the engine from overrevving.

 

New Friday poll is up:

https://www.tundras.com/threads/poll-do-you-pee-in-the-shower.91210/

 

It's built with about 75% trash. If the sun is out it is 60-80 in there no matter the outside (winter) temperature.

 

We need inside pics of your she shed.

We like pics. Like, a lot.
