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

If I did it again, I'd go with an under seat powered 8 or two.
I might buy one for the black truck some day.

I been watching a lot of wrestling documentaries lately. Apparently most pro wrestlers hate Hogan lol

 

Everybody hates the top dog.

 

Well there's a lot more to it than that

 

Don't you ruin my image of The Hulkster. I was in Hulkamania back in the 80's. Plus, the turd gens are modeled of of him.

 

Sorry bro but the Hulkster you can love all day bro.

However Terry Eugene Bollea is not that good of a human being. He's not a victim, he's a fucking idiot who has a Jesus complex and thinks his shit don't stink. And now that he's in his later years he thinks he can't start to rewrite the history of how things actually played out. Unfortunately there are still too many people alive that remember him in the '80s and the '90s and what kind of person he actually was.

 

The hulk was a prima donna. Still is. Ultimate warrior, Hacksaw Jim Dugan, the Von Erichs, the Hart bros, Andre the Giant. Those kinda guys were the core or pro wrestling.

 

The ultimate warrior was my favorite wrestler growing up as a kid. That and Rowdy Rowdy Piper In the bushwacker twins. Yeah I grew up in the '80s

 

I been watching a lot of Dark Side of The Ring and Who Killed WCW? on Vice.


Sorry that has nothing to do with my 1GT...

I ordered some parts though. New lowering blocks and u bolts. I need to order a CV axle for the other truck.

 

Rowdy in the kilt with the pipes, yes!! Those were the characters that made it so good. Macho man was another one I loved. And I’ll admit it, I even liked the nature boy.

 

Ok ok ok. Terry and the rest may have been a not so nice dude. I loved the characters they played. Kinda reverse of movie bad guys you could say, where you hate the character but the the actor.

But yeah, I loved the road warriors and the bushwackers. Macho man is just next level, and still provides the memes. There's even a mod in Skyrim that turns the dragons into Machoman. It's fucking hilarious.

Fun fact: Terry Funk is from Amarillo.

 

There's a shit ton of pro wrestlers that came from Texas.

More good documentary shows I recommend wrestling fans are WWE Rivals and WWE Legends on A&E

 

I'll only love one wrestler forever. And that's SA's very own HBK

 

What about Stone Cold??????
Booker T?

 

you could probably go visit stone cold in Victoria. And booker is from h-tine

But Im a HBK guy. I love my TX boys but I'll sweet chin music someone before I stone cold stun them

 

Didn't do anything to my FGT today except pick it up from the mechanic. Fresh timing belt/water pump. I guess the last person who did the job stripped a tensioner bolt, so they stuck a stud in there with green threadlock. Green! Took him some extra time fixing that. Heating, getting it out, cleaning out the hole, getting new threads in. Other than fan pulley bearing, everything else went smooth.

When I first bought the truck and joined this forum I was trying to figure out if the timing belt sticker was accurate, since Carfax only said "serpentine belts and drive belts" were replaced around the mileage of the engine sticker. Mechanic said based on the condition of the belt, the sticker was likely correct. So the job had been done about 50,000 miles and 10 years ago. Based the years, and the peace of mind, I'm still happy it's got fresh parts.

 

I forgot about Dusty Rhodes, Jake the Snake, the Undertaker, and the Von Erichs.

 

Let things break in for a few hundred miles.




THEN LET THAT BITCH REDLINE TO THE HEAVENS.

 

I've bought off Aliexpress a bunch of times. Stuff made in China, why pay a middleman on Amazon when i can go direct to his source in China?

Just know their sizes are off. Clothing you need to go up at least 1 size, usually up 2 sizes.
Yes it's cheap & it's made cheap. They're best for electronics, and stuff made of metal IMO.
Be really careful to re-read the description. There are a LOT of sellers intentionally vague in descriptions & your assumptions usually don't arrive with the product.

 

That's a win. 'run out of gas' while watching the 'submarine races'.
Bench seats definitely have their advantage.

catching up, probably already posted but - duh!

 

i met Andre the Giant. Nice guy. I had to move his shoes, hand made - HUGE. Nice guy, I seem to recall him being hard-of-hearing?

 

I remember watching the WWF cartoon show! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hulk_Hogan's_Rock_'n'_Wrestling I loved the Macho Man, JYD, and of course the "real American", Hulk Hogan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX_k5_egUAo As far as i was concerned when i was a kid, Rick Derringer was the best US singer at the time.

 

I used to buy shit off there all the time. Mainly composite fiber materials for making home made level 3 hard plates. Id save a 50% on materials cost over Amazon. Most shits made in China on their, and quality control has been a known issue with some sellers in there. But it's cheap, and most of the shit I bought worked as desired.

 

Rowdy Roddy, Iron Shiek, Great Kabuki, and Von Erich Brothers.

 

Bob Backlund, Jimmy Snooka, George the Animal Steele, Sargent Slaughter, Macho Man Randy Savage, Ric Flair, Steve Austin, the list goes on.

 

Is that code for road head?
