i got a 97 dodge ram 1500 ext cab. that thing gets like 13mpg on a good week with mixed driving. ive always wanted to get a newer tacoma but i dont wanna drop as much money as ive seen them go for around here.

heres a picture of mine a few years ago, still looks the same. and yes it is teal hince the name iheartteal

 

My Tundra...and yes, I replaced the busted plate frame. Probably selling next year for a F-350 diesel. It's in perfect shape, but I want more towing power for an enclosed trailer.

 

I was just in Durham about a month ago.

 

Toyota trucks seem to have great resale value so naturally they tend to command quite a bit more versus the other makes. When I bought my Tacoma new, I could have got a Dodge ram with quad cab and a 5.7L for 10k less. Yes thats right, 10 thousand frickin dollars less! As bad as I wanted to save that $$ I still went with the Tacoma. I strive for longevity and keep 'em til they die. I can picture the Dodge givin up looong before the Yota does. My only gripe with the 05+ Tacoma is gas mileage...you'd think they could make a V6 that gets better than 19 highway.

 

you were a long way from home

 

Yeah, a toyota truck is an investment for hte long run. They have great resales so when u drop that cash, its nice to know you are going to get it in return. I plan on finishing grad school with this one then maybe buying a newer one.

 

I was. It was such a long flight. I was visiting my grandparents for the holidays. I kept my eye out for some cool Honda's, but unfortunately didn't see any. Durham is pretty small, I'm surprised I didn't see your whip. It's prolly not your daily though.

 

my car's been on jack stands since October but aren't that many nice Hondas in Durham that you see on the regular...i like it like that...Honda thefts and break-in's are almost non-existent here. now if you were to head to Raleigh, different story.

 

Yeah, I really liked Durham. It's so pretty out on the country side and all of the houses are so old. I bet it's a really good place to take pictures of the ride. Why has your car been on jack stands for so long?

 

Durham county is huge...got lost out there once. Best thing is that it's less than 45 minutes to VIR

this happened right after i i got home from the track

 

Holy crap is that an OEM belt????

 

did your valves get bent? You stripped that **** clean, man.

 

yeah OEM, but i didn't change it when i bought the swap was out of $$$

no bent valves, car actually sut off as i was about to turn it off in my driveway...total of 17 teeth gone and i found a couple in the driveway under the car. got lucky on that one. but bought new cams, cam gears, lma's, water and oil pump, and some other stuff. just waiting to put it on. so ready to put my valve cover on

 

My daily... I still need a new front bumper. lol It used to be black, but it looked like poop so I painted it white.

 

does anybody know where you can still purchase mirror block-off's for a hatch?
every site I seem to come across is sold out with no eta

also can anybody identify these mirrors or a brand of a similar style?

I'm not interested in APR style

 

Holy hot dicks from hell that thing is clean :O

 

haha Thanks buddy!

 

getting somewhere soon... so what do you guys talk about in this ef discussion thread?

well lately ive been working hard to source oem parts, nothing special lately except chrome pinstrip jdm moldings, bronze glass, and jdm ef2 front end and rebuilding my d15b7 for a replacement in my sedan to daily drive.
