1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

@FirstGenVol

 

@DarkMint Sorry for blowing up your notifications, but here's the information on refinishing a new bumper cover. If you end up buying brand new instead of used and plan to paint it yourself.

 

Very happy with mine so far.

Thanks for that, buddy. I'll probably end up with the K03's. From what I'm reading, the Toyos are louder. My K02's are pretty loud at the lower tread.

 

Yes my old KO2's got really loud but that's normal for old tires.

 

I cast my vote for the ugliest FGT ever

2005 Toyota Tundra | Classic Cars for Sale - Streetside Classics

 

Is that arrowhead the engine cover?

I have to say, that is one of the most unique looking custom trucks that I've seen. It's not my cup of tea but it is a head turner.

 

Those rear view mirrors

 

I guess there's a T3 tundra for sale on marketplace in my area. I think they want 15k

 

Well, someone is either an asshole or they're fucking with me. Either way, pretty shitty. Gotta take time out of my day to call Toyota now, and clear this shit up, get whoever's doing it blacklisted/account cancelled or some shit. Confirmed, not a phish. Guess I left my VIN# visible somewhere in one of my bajillion replies here eh.

Meh.

​

 

Yeah, wtf is that about. I don't even understand what the benefit for them could be.

 

Maybe it's just "Haha, I bet it'd be fun to fuck with shifty today!" I take a lot of screen caps while trying to show people how to do stuff, I probably failed to delete my VIN from a screencap, or left it in a hyperlink somewhere.

Knowing me, I probably said some shit to piss someone off, rustled some jimmies. IDGAF, I'll let Toyota handle it.

 

I've never seen you post your VIN number here. Very odd that someone would do this.

 

I’ve got yours and his saved for a rainy day…….

 

I'll never forget when PHM slipped up once and posted his license plate. That dude was so paranoid about giving up his location.

 

I kinda miss that sob

 

I'm about to burn Donut down for the insurance money. I had a tuning session scheduled tomorrow so I went to start it to go get gas for tomorrow. Damn thing is squealing again. Didn't even have to drive it. There's also belt residue laying on top of the tensioner again. Belt is turning black on the green side. Everything looks to be in line. The damn supercharger whines so loud I can't tell where the squeal is coming from. He's gonna sit in the corner and think about what he did while I work on Ironman tomorrow.

 

I recall a thread where folks were posting their model code stickers of who had the oldest 1st Gen. Some ahole probably saved those shots but mums the word

PHM left few crumbs but that one crumb gave homeboys where abouts

 

It was funny; the one place he always said he was from is actually a place that's where he's from. IYKYK.

 

I'm a few days late, but I highly recommend this upgrade while you got everything open.

 

Holy smokes!! Is that Kraftwerk?? Are they on tour??

 

It IS Kraftwerk!! @shifty` why didn't you say anything before. They've been all over the southeast for the last 10 days and now the tour is moving on to places it will cost a lot of $ for me to travel.

 

Very bizarre group. Kind of like EDM music with vocals.

These guys (along with Jean Michele Jarre) were absolute pioneers in synthesizer and vocoder music in the 1970s. I was in elementary school when their hit The Robots was released.

 

Yeah, they were on my bucket list. They influenced so much music I used to play out, it’s insane the amount of times their work has been sampled in everything from pop to ambient.

Vocalist (on far left) is like 78 this year, I think? I dunno if they’ll be around on another tour. It was pretty good, seems like they were mixing stuff live, dunno who was doing graphics. I do have a shot from the back of the venue where you can see the audio dudes and their screens. I have several 45-90sec clips if you want.

there weren’t a ton of people there compared to the back-to-back nights of Khruangbin coming to town a couple months back! In a couple more weeks Soul Coughing is coming thru also, another one on the bucket list…

 

I think a solid dozen electronic genres exist because these guys existed.

Stuff like Electro, Miami Bass, Florida Breaks, Nu Skool …

Huge, huge, ginormous entity in music.

 

FINAL UPDATE
Guess what FedEx delivered today. Yep, the plastic socket cover. Based on the earlier responses here, this may be the first and last time I order from ToyotaPartsDeal. (That way my batting average is 1.000!) At least now I can get back to converting one of the lower power outlets for use with the CarPlay plug.

 

Whewww fun fun fun. I dig the T100s, but having already had 2 1st gen tacos, didn't have the desire for a t100. Tried getting a buddy into a nice low mileage one a few years ago, he's still kicking himself for not doing it lol

Thanks, next time it's open

 

Shiiit, having two first gen tacos is actually what made me want the T100n
Mine was manual and 4x4 and my Tacomas were auto prerunners.
