It's an XLT with the 302A package. They paid more for the blackout appearance package for no apparent reason. It's basically a set of katskin seat covers (1K), 1K worth of alloys, 1K worth of tires, 500 dollar fender flares with maybe 200 bucks worth of paint on em (700) 500 bucks worth of...

In the final analysis, it wasn't worth fighting the base, and my insurance company (who, even after I sent them the police report, still had it listed as my fault), and I didn't particularly feel like getting an attorney to attempt to sue the location that I also work at, so I ate the exhaust...

If you can sort a price shipped to 87112 (Albuquerque) we may be able to work something out.

The issue at hand is that dealers have/feel like they have all the swing in customer interactions. I had a similar issue in Albuquerque in early 2020 when looking for a new truck, and wound up going out of state to get mine. I've been scoping out a replacement for my wife's car over the past...

I think ford called it white platinum, or White Platinum Pearl Tricoat.

That's funny; over here I went to a collision shop and they said "you know, this PDR guy might be able to get those out, he does all our hail work, you should check with him first." And the PDR guy is the one who told me he couldn't get to them, and to have the body shop handle it. Guess so...

I had two dings right above the door, so basically dented a curved/cornered area, as well as one on the bed of the truck. PDR guy in my town took care of the ping on the bed for 50 bucks and took him half an hour. The above the door ones were strictly a body shop item; no way to access the...

Why should I have to tell you anything? Hows about you point out where I said it's ok to use it, and we can use that as a reference point to actually base an argument from. I mean, I know the ranger is turbo charged which helps with altitude, but you ain't, so inventing shit out of thin air...

Wait, Toyota has a commercial where the driver rear ends a Lexus and kills someone? Isn't that fratricide brand-wise?

We should rename the thread "Why are some Tacoma owners like us?"

There wasn't a space for hobbies, so I left it out. Also, I work in IT. Being an asshole with repeat customers is sort of expected.

Man, I way over-estimated your conversational capabilities. Here, let me explain this to you with crayons. LOTS WORDS USED THEN BAD NOW. LOTS WORDS USED NOW BAD LATER. IF YOU WANT SAY BAD WORDS BAD NOW, JUST MAKE SURE YOU USE BIG BRAIN THING AND NOT USE WORDS THAT BAD LATER OK? Basically...

You seem to have some issues with taking alliteration as a literal statement. When I say "whatever snaps your strap-on" that's an alliterative statement and not a literal one. Think "if that's what works for ya." When I say "warrant the pulpit you're preaching from", that's an alliterative...

There will be a whole new grip of words used, with different inferences. Geek, nerd, square, rube, cis?, het?, burber, mayo... It'll be one thing, get co-opted, and the term will lose potency and meaning. If you don't like the term, whatever snaps your strap-on ... Just remember that terms...

There's a lot of Glock Scientologists out there as well, and some people think that because they can get an aftermarket slide that matches their shoes, that that particular gun is the one for them. And they're right. It is for them. I own 3 Sigs, and I'm not a fanboy. They just do what I...

Coming from my 4X4 Jaguar (2013 Ford F150 FX4 fully loaded), I like my creature comforts.

I remember quite a few "car guys" losing their collective shit over Lotus gluing the aluminum chassis together on the Elise, and how they didn't "believe" that the bonding was stronger than welding. Sometimes as the manufacturer, you have to be the adult in the situation, and feed the kids a...

Dealers are offering that because they anticipate that the market is going to "jump" in price in the near future for new vehicles, dragging the value of used vehicles up with it. This is good if you're looking to trade up, and a dealer has an applicable vehicle on the lot. If, however you're...

Sounds like it was an unfortunate location. I looked at a few aftermarket ones, including a 6mm aluminium job. One thing they lack that the FX4 one has (from what I saw) are the bends in the metal. The aftermarket ones have thicker metal, but not much in the way of those bends. And I think...

I don't need that kind of karma in my life. I tempt fate in lots of ways normally. I'd rather keep her on my side rather than look at me and say "ah, fuck that guy". That works for some folks, but I tend to get the short of it when I try it.
