Oh, and it's hiding in the background of some of my pictures. If you're *really* interested. Buy pretty much looks like every grey 5th gen 4Runner

I dunno why I care so much. Lamp.

Some day she'll sell it on, but it's one of those things that, since it doesn't cost us anything but insurance and registration, it's not a major burden. So for now it's just there, like a few of our other toys, not getting played with because of reasons.
Had it since October 2012. First new vehicle I've ever owned; mainly because the difference between a late model used and new was literally $2000. Since I keep my cars for almost forever, it wasn't so much a financial mistake to buy new and get *exactly* what we wanted. No Ragrets!
Why do I think you're collecting a dossier and will show up to mouth fuck me someday? (I know Maj is filing this info away for nefarious purposes)
I would but it was never an option on this motor. and TRD has formally stopped supporting superchargers. Their either embracing the fact that they're a joke sticker-kit package now, or they're getting ready for turbo motors in the next few years. My money is on sticker-jobs.

Yay! Jury Doody day. Wherein a microcosm of society gathers in a large room, generally avoids one another, with the sole desire of getting to go back to work.

Yeah, the last time I got selected to appear for jury duty, it was for a case something along the lines of "habitual sexual misconduct with a child".
Then they mentioned the guy had already plead guilty and this was just for the sentencing phase. Oh, and the guy was sitting there in front of us the whole time.
I could not nope out of there quick enough.
Hopefully today is for a traffic infraction or something so I don't get further disappointed with society as a whole.

I've never been selected for jury duty.. but Wifey has... and she's not allowed to be on the jury here because she's not a Canadian citizen
Don't they do a vetting process? Just be like "I'ma yell GUILTY at the top of my lungs, regardless of the evidence!!" to get off jury duty

Did you get mix-matched sizes for random offset wheels that are way too big for your car?
Because I hear that's what the cool kids are doing these days.

I've heard the new upcoming trend is octagon shaped wheels.

I took a loan for my Tacoma and once I paid it off I kept making car payments to myself. So when it was time for new vehicles, I had a pretty sizable "car fund".
Plus, we shopped nationwide and were able to leverage for pretty much the best prices on both vehicles when we bought. I think the Wagon was also helped because Acura was doing away with the TL and the TSX at the same time and while Honda doesn't typically discount their vehicles, I got it for a considerable savings.
It's budgeting.

Might hit up Jin since he's always on them canyon runs every weekend..
Side note: guy saw I ordered non-stock sizes and had to do all these checks and was like: "We got a new manager, he's gonna chew me out if I don't at least check to make sure they fit" I should have referred him to Acurazine
BEEACH I know what I'm doing! I'm an Acurazine whore!

oil change interval is every 3k miles on the jizzmo. I was shocked when the light came on. Which manufacturer does 3k mile oil change intervals still?
