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

@CodyP

The access cab power slide rear window was a Limited only option if my memory serves.

 

The beer out here has the same problem that the wine industry has, too damn many people making it.

Lagunitas has been one of my defaults for years, way before they moved to Illinois, usually Little Sumpin. If I want a buzz in a hurry I'll drink Hop Stoopid or something from Stone.

The last 2 years most of the beer I drink is from Enegren, it's a small brewery up the street. They specialize in German inspired styles, no IPA.

A few of my favorite IPA are Dogfishhead 90 or 120 Day, Just Outstanding, Modern Times Orderville or maybe a Pliny(if nobody is there to see me drink it and call me a fucking hipster). I get tired of IPA though, then my Mexican side takes over and I end up with 24 frosty Tecates.

@shifty` youd be surprised how far Stone and Ballast point go. I saw them in Costa Rica but not sure who is drinking them at double the cost. I saw Stone in London too, Arrogant Bastard and Ruination were there at a pub, pretty expensive though.

 

Stone is more widely available since they opened a second spot over here on the east coast. And Ballast Point, Sculpin is/was another one of my regular in-between beers before hazy IPAs flooded the scene, many of which are terrible, quite a few are outstanding though and that's where my heart is.

And 'pura vida' I could sit around and drink Imperial from Costa Rica all day long.

 

I'm thinking it may just be that, or a seal needs replacement. I didn't see anything in the exploded parts diagram @ Toyota's parts site though.

 

I was so close to installing a power sliding rear window.





then I realized I have a regular cab and can easily reach said window driving without lookjng

 

That's all I drank while I was there! It looked like a Tecate so I felt at home. Ballast Point was out there too, a bar I stopped at had Sculpin.

 

Ran a can of seafoam spray through the throttle body this evening with my wife's help holding the gas.

Applied another coat of paint to the sliders. I really underestimated how many cans it would take.

@Darkness , we went to Modern Times in San Diego and loved it. One of my favorites that we visited.

 

aren't most full size going to the turbo v6?

 

Took her for a drive to pick up my new copilot, Buddy!

 

I see my beer scale still has a decent footing around here. You gotta be careful with it though, it’s about as consistent as the ratio of Schrute bucks to Stanley nickels.

 

Great find! What's the mileage on that one?

 

Thanks. 8 months and still very much a pup. He’s smart as hell but doesn’t know his size yet, especially his oddly long tail.

 

Parks n rec, and arrested development are two of the others that the old lady and I have re watched at least 7 times each. Those 3 will never get old

 

What’s empty up to tonight..



oh fixing Berliner that got taken off by me not having the cap centered right

 

Awesome looking pup!



And...



Best color!

 

I always chuckled when I visited my friend on the north side of town, different waste/recycling companies. His was Arizona Sanitation Services; best acronym ever!

 

Why not just pull the caps off?

 

I’m talking about the truck cap. It’s off right now. Had the window fixed and it’s getting new locks.

 

I meant the bed rails. It looks like you painted them, on my truck they just pop right off

 

I have no bed rails. That’s the bed liner lip. It goes over the bed to protect from the cap

 

Ridiculous size differences.

 

i'll never get tired of this photo. both 8 ft beds mind you

 

Wow! Your truck has come so far!

That 2nd gen monster makes your truck look Itty bitty

 

Installed Wuhan special HVAC knobs because one of mine broke, and I had just been swapping knobs around to change settings. Lol

In the "zoomed" picture you can see some light escaping from around the generic knobs.

 

i believe so, i know ford is on there way..

 

You gots the ‘rona yet?!?

 

OH!!! I actually saw a tundra with a bed liner lip recently and it skipped my mind. Sorry

 

Dropped truck off at Brakes Plus again to get a thorough diagnosis of the AC system for $200ish. I am tired of guessing what might be causing the blinking light, high low side pressure, and no cold air—just want to know what the actual problem is.

 

I haven't had to work on my AC yet so not fully clear on what's up with it. Maybe clogged inline filter or the orifice tube has debris? If you replaced the compressor recently, did you replace the drier valve and other little bits, then have the lines vacuumed before refilling with coolant?

 

Loosen top nut. Remove 2 bolts and drill new holes. Push track and reinsert bolts and tighten. Window track rattle fix.
