1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

IDK, my truck rolled into my folks garage and it just pushed the bumper up 1/2”. The doorframe of the garage was pushed in an inch or two from the hit.

 

i've seen what a deer can do to the plastic bumper trucks and 2nd gens. I was back on the road within half an hour after using a ratchet strap as a come along.

luckily i refused the damage multiplier brush guard the grandparents wanted to get me.

 

If upgraded stereo means radio controls on the wheel, I’m in!

 

I get your reasoning, but no matter how much we are happy with it, plateau sounds a bit anti-climactic. Whereas… “. Pinnacle” And, Lol!, it’s got a vowel at the end.

 

It crossed my mind, but it's also the name of a golf ball

 

The supernova. With some style carryover.

 

Is that a Manx?

 

Every time I boot up my old work computer, it thinks it’s Jan 1st, 1980.

Complained to IT, so instead of replacing the CMOS battery, they gave me a new computer. Doesn’t surprise me.

What does, is why 1980?

 

One way to track time is # of ms since XXXX where XXX is an arbitrary date. So that's effectively a binary 00000000000000000000000000000000

 

I just read up on some history and apparently the later vintage chevy novas were built by Toyota in the freemont plant which Tesla now owns. I didn't know that.

 

Yeah, I kind of figured that but I don’t understand why it would be 1980 as a reference point. Like what’s the significance of that year?

The computer was only built 6 years ago.

 

I couldn't have said it better myself.

 

This is a decent read.

"Let's pick one thing that's not going to overflow for a while."

That's for unix time. My assumption is that whoever did the firmware for that bios picked 1980 for yours.

 

Alright: ‘Mesa’

 

Maybe Masa, give the tacomas a run for their money!

 

Tacomasa? Que?

What does Tacoma mean?

Hahah so I was leaning towards the food group, taco, masa……..
Taco sauce only
Flour tortilla paste only
Tamale power
…… are some stickers I could imagine

 

Do they make lift shackles for our trucks?

When I rob the leaf springs from the silver truck I want to keep it from having the Carolina lean and not have to scramble to find longer u-bolts unless one of you all have some laying around that I can buy unless someone has a link to some that fit the stock leaf seat thing under the axle....

Asking for me...

 

They do not, drop shackles only, because of the shackle placement.

 

Trucks home. Sounds great. Wiring cutouts tomorrow time allowing and I’ll get some in cab videos this weekend.

 

Thanks!! Anybody got a link for some u-bolts then?

 

That guy.

 

Throwing this here for anyone interested.

I see some on scamazon. I just wish I'd have measured the ubolt length on the ones from Alcan when I got them.

I'm tired fellers

 

Lol. I love that hood. Except when I’m off-roading, and can’t see over it. Then it sucks. But I do think it looks good, when I park the truck at the farthest corner of a city parking lot, where no one can accidentally scratch the inferno paint… when I look back at it numerous times while walking away.

 

That's what I said. Jeez dude.

 

I first wrote ‘dork’, but I’d have meant the definition for kids when we were in middle school— not what that *really means*. So I had to edit it to keep the chiding, lose the actual insult.

 

I likely have a 2nd gen in my future. Honestly, I could not tell you the difference between 2 and 2.5 on the street. I think it's 2013/14 cut. But, The built right ones all look good to me.

 

I've always appreciated how reflective and thoughtful you are. And I especially appreciate that you waited until the 2nd post to call me a dork.
