I like this guy's snark! I have all of the tools except for the last one...

 

Is crypto mining still a thing?

 

It can be if you share computing resources with a group to get a partial amount of the payout in order to lower the cost of the hardware investment. So, for example, if you buy a Xeon motherboard and host 4-6 Nvidia RTX 4090 cards to do the processing on their GPUs, you could network with others over a gigabit ethernet fiber connection to get it done.

It's either that or spend tens of thousands to create your own crypto farm.

 

My $300 Bitcoin investment is up $65 this morning

 

Car wizard is a cool dude. He works on some neat vehicles too.

Jesus. After seeing all the stupid shit the new tacoma has, these new trucks are just ridiculous.

 

I really liked Carl Weathers (Action Jackson)

What's your all's preferred use of wire wheel action? I want to attack this bumper. I have a drill and a Dremel but no angle grinder. I was thinking something like this will make it easier to hit the tight spaces.

 

Also look at cup style wire wheels

 

the warrior 4.5” angle grinder is $15. I have 2 and they work great for how much they cost I’d also recommend getting the carbon knotted wire brush for it. $25 and you’ll tear through that job in minutes

 

There's a thread for that.

Check out this Tacoma TRD pro. Picture is from a fellow Aggie that is a higher up at Toyota. Thing has a built in snorkel and... wait for it.... a hood scoop. Overlander bro bois instagram accounts are going to be lit!

 

Also I’ll note that the KSP ball joint definitely has zero grease. So if anybody reads this and decides to get them. Get a grease gun and some grease. You’re gonna need it.

 

I hate that roofline. That rear corner is horrible.

 

I think with a flatbed the rear roofline would be better.

 

Built in light bar too

 

Built in cab spoiler?

 

Everything's better with a flatbed

 

Can't tell. It almost looks like it's a separate piece or something?

 

My wife bought me present at the store today

 

I wish we got these….

 

BFF front for sale in GA

 

Do it have the fancy seats with struts on them?

It looks ready to mall crawl.

 

Is that the one that will drive over obstacles for you?

Rockauto discount code good through 3/8.

 

That price is questionable. I get there is a long lead time but you can't expect to get all your money back on something like this.

 

What did you pay for yours?
