    A few little things
    I want to say thank you to all those that have helped and still are trying to help me with some issue that I created on my 04.
    Not all forums are the same, I have belonged to some great ones, and this one is just like those.
    However, I lasted about a day on a Mitsubishi forum. Never seen so many high and mighty attitudes in one place. They just knocked everyone down that had questions or needed help.
    So all of you here on this one, thank you!

    The other good ones were the, Avalanche - Vette - Hummer - Casinos and Real Estate / lending forums I belonged too.

    I agree. There's a mixture of young and older people here. Some are post high school educated while some aren't. It's a small community and everyone pretty much hangs tough with one another.
    If someone gets rough with another it's taken in stride w/o offense and it smooths out not long afterward. I agree with you and am grateful to read and learn from this forum because they all are in for helping the 1st gen people with question of what to do.

    It's not bad at all. Better than some 4x4 oriented forums I've been on where guys put you down if you either don't have a TJ sitting on d60s or a samurai that you built with PVC that you roll on it's lid every time you go wheeling with the d60 crowd.

    I especially like how one member starts a project and the rest of follow. @Professional Hand Model and his floor lighting come to mind. I'm actually going to throw some led pods under my dash now. The same thing happens when one member does something to his brakes or whatever and five other members post about it in the following weeks. I think that's a pretty healthy cycle honestly.

    Man oh man, KarmaKannon, you have some over the top skills as others here are known by older participating forum members.

    If you guys ever got together to form a business, it would be a very successful welcomed business for Toyota aftermarket products.

    My wallet would like to disagree, but I've restrained and sedated it. Carry on.

    It's true, this is a really solid forum.

    I was on TS for years, it turned to shit and died. I was on TT for a few years, it was hot if you didn't have a first gen. This forum is fireing on all cylinders no matter what generation you have.

    I tried Vortex for my VW. Couldn't deal with the negativity and the bs advice. I picked fights within a week because everybody was dogging a guy for running a body kit. I probably got banned but never tried to log on after that action.

    Whole heartedly agree. This is a great forum, especially for 20 year old platform. Lots of information on here and lots of great people.

    Tons of help for sure. Then there's always the guy who tears shit apart and has no idea how to fix it. Then it goes to shit. That's the guy you learn what NOT to do.

    I'm that guy.

    I agree, I was a member of TS also.I check this site many times a day and I must admit, It has cost me quite a bit of money!! But, because of this site I have an awesome,one of a kind tundra that I get compliments about every time I get it out! Everyone here has been super nice but they also have there own opinions. It's good when people can agree to disagree and still like each others trucks regardless of the color of their truck,how high or how low it is lifted or if you spent $50,000.00 or $200.00 on your truck. They are all TOYOTAS in the end!!!

    This is the best forum I've ever been a part of. I'm a co-founder/moderator of a forum and I'd rather hang out here than there. There's such a great atmosphere here. Within a week of joining, I already felt like a part of the group. Anybody on this forum is welcome around my campfire, even that mailbox wrecking Elk Hunter guy if for nothing other than sheer entertainment. :D

    Yeah, with no idea how that's done...That's not right!

    If that were to be on video, would sexy hands tell the story better than strong looking manly hands? Lol, I need a great over the top paying job like professional's womanizing sexy hands has!

    I have been able to build my truck out to the fuse due to people on this forum and I have had zero issues. I even had a rear sway bar issue while it was on the lift and we were doing an instal and forum members figured it out just from pictures. Now that’s bad ass. I’ve sent people free parts and pieces as well as receiving some as well (@pfactor).

    I also think it really helps that our trucks have not changed in years (which is good and bad) so everyone has seen almost every issue between 1000 miles and a million miles. Try finding that on another truck forum.
