Tundras to Sedona - 2025

To Do List is growing longer with a misfire on cyl 6, I think it’s a bad coil

And I’m working on the gf’s rav4 instead of the truck
Plugs, wires, working on removing the throttle body. Pesky coolant hoses on the bottom aren’t friendly to guys with big hands

 

gonna earn a new achievement this year. I know i have a coolant leak, but i’m just gonna rock it. I’ve got 2 gallons of premix, 2 gal of distilled water, and all the tools & gaskets needed. i’ll bring a starter in case i make it to amarillo.

 

Nothing, just saying... most of my imbibing occurs early am (before bed), so some may misconstrue that

Beers at 0700 is perfectly fine if you're not jumping into a vehicle immediately after or making huge financial decisions...
Plus, it's the perfect cure for an am hangover after a previous evening of consumption

In other words, nothing wrong with it!!!!

Look, I've told yall this before.
No beers before:
4pm on Friday
2pm on Saturday
12pm on vacation.

 

Depends on what time you wake up. If you sleep til 10, yea whatever. If your dog wakes you up at 4 cause youre in the wrong time zone, the beers can start early. And the best way to not break trucks is to have an excuse to not drive em.

 

Jesus
Those were some hard 17k miles.

 

Operation: Rewire is well underway.

 

Psh we keep the same hours and we definitely have issues.

 

New spanner wrench showed up this afternoon, so I got to work, making adjustments to the preload on the Kings, adjusting LCA caster, adjusting UCA camber. I still need to finish the passenger side. Then I can start fine tuning the camber and then the toe.
I sort of think I might maybe know what I'm doing.
Been using some redneck ingenuity that I learned from years of hanging out with my uncle.

 

Fair enough... I'll accept that!!!

 

She's got a settle for a few hours, then I'll drive in and out of the garage a couple times, and start adjusting the toe. She's toed way out now. Probably going to need to jump start her. I've got a parasitic draw somewhere I think. It doesn't matter when I drive the truck. But she's been sitting for a long time. Battery is actually only maybe 6 months old. I couldn't even jump start the old battery.

 

you can do it!

 

Wonder what the 0.1% impurity in that copper is

Good luck. I’m sure it’ll turn out great

 

Truck is looking like a real poser ass mall crawler…

 

Just stack 14 ground rings on the side of the fender like a real man!!

 

Rings?? You clearly meant run a few wraps of bare wire around the fender bolt

 

Right right right.

Beers are best when one is thirsty. Beer defies the construct of time.

 

Ahem. You do not have the authority to make such a call. In ‘23, Mr. @AZBoatHauler secured honorary member status indefinitely. The man was drinking beers with us by our 1st gen fire, til 3 am, before you left your house. We saw meteors or ufo’s or something else that night. I don’t know what it was but it was fucking magical. He also lent me tools and supervised the following day as I removed my diff in 1st gen camp to fix it, then led our group to and thru ‘broken arrow’ as the best damn trail leader anyone could ask for. All before you showed up, son. Then there’s the drone footage and amazing video editing,,…
Fuck, I’m bout to start singing for he’s a jolly good fellow n shit…..geezus. How dare you.

Those are YOUR rules for YOU. good for you.
Way I see it is, you need not follow these rules anyhow, because Michelob ultra is not actually a real beer

 

Looking forward to doing it all again in 4 weeks!

 

I think that was a police helicopter looking for someone up to no good in the cinders

 

This was the beginning of the event before the weekend riffraff moved in.

 

The nights were a blur, I don’t remember what night/morning that was other than I got yelled at to come to bed. The next morning was rough, but I rallied

 

There's more important things afoot

 

Relative like Sweet Home Alabama, yes.

 

Yep, beer time while camping is whenever my body says it's time. Usually about an hour after breakfast.
Beer time of Friday or Saturday is if/when ever I feel like it.
