  1. So mine was literally just a platform. 2 Two by sixes as crosmembers and piece of plywood cut into two pieces and trimmed for the bed. All carpeted. Could put it in and take it out in under a minute and took up no space in the garage. Used under bed plastic storage containers as my "drawers". Way easier and cheaper, but not as nice.
  2. I did several trips in my tacoma before I sold it earlier this year. Bed platform and memory foam mattress made it nice. But yeah, two people tops.
  3. Anyone got a link to stream squeeze play? I’d like to set up a second TV when our game starts, but only have sling orange with a single stream.
  4. There were 2 listings for me, one had not yet started, and one was live.
  5. Tree-Fiddy getting ads in the CR on my laptop.
  6. 2013 is a previous gen than the current and had the much better 4.0, that does not have the power issues of the newer 3.5. But yeah, the Turbo on the 4.0 makes it a race truck. Had a buddy with a factory Supercharger on his 2010.
  7. Sounds like mine came from a generic sign company in the Midland/Odessa area. Apparently they made them as a favor for a large sign order for an Oil and gas company. Check with your local sign shops and see if they can make them for you.
  8. There are companies that will make them for you. I don't know which companies, but I have a Texas 34 sign hanging on my back porch that was given to me as a gift. It looks identical to a real one, but obviously made of sheet metal. It hangs next to the City Limits sign of the small town I grew up in and moved away from in high school. My friends gave it to me as a going away gift. I was the only one that was 16 at the time, they told me to pick them up behind so & so's house in 15 minutes, when I got there they tossed a the sign in the back and screamed gogogo that old bitch saw us and called the sheriff.... So I ended up being the getaway driver for my own going away stolen city limits sign without knowing it. /csb
  9. Understood, but that is the Big Bend thread on this site. It was a separate thread on the old site.
  10. Step one: Go to google step two: type: site:surlyhorns.com and the thing you want search step three: … step four: profit
  11. As someone that has had a CHL for over a decade, and been battling a severe case of lead foot behind the wheel even longer, this is completely a myth. Maybe it was true at one point, but it hasn't been true all over Texas in at least 12 years.
  12. Brand of car probably is important, dont you think? with Ford, you will need a OBD2 cable and software, and it isn’t exactly easy. Lots of manufacturers the dealer has to do it if push button.
  13. How about the 4 page South Padre thread?
  14. Love my August.
  15. I've run that section of river plenty of times. The Weir is man made, but I have no idea the purpose. Portage around it on river right is an easy flat portage.
  16. Yeah, don’t buy until supply catches up The reason I have not done it. Dad sold his personal 2018 XLT 2wd with 56k miles last week for 6k more than he bought it for last year. He has a brand new company truck so he pocketed the money and but most of us don’t have a company vehicle to drive 24/7 till prices come back down. DUMB
  17. Yup. I have a buddy shopping for 250’s right now. Year old, 45k miles, 3k under original sticker. I told his ass to wait. Just dumb. He test drove a hail damaged 250 in Marble Falls, brand new. The salesman was embarrassed to tell him they would knock a thousand off sticker due to the damage. He said don’t do it, but it would sell for that by the end of the week. The people who can’t find something new. Drive outside a major city and dealerships that would normally have several hundred new vehicles have less than 30. It’s absolutely unreal.
  18. It’s stupid right now. The 16 Lariat I bought 1/11 for 30k I have been offered 36k for by the dealership that sold it to me.
  19. Have a buddy that swears by Ride-Rite. Almost did it on my last truck but ended up just going with a new leaf pack. But I was not towing so the adjustability makes sense if you are.
  20. yeah, I traded in my 11 base 4x4 with 100k miles in January before things got stupid for 17k and thought I robbed the guy blind. Then saw him sell it 8 days later for 21.
  21. Yeah, I would not want to be buying any vehicle right now. I sold my Tacoma for a full-size back in January because we needed more cab space, and we almost waited. So glad I didn't, because the same truck I bought I could trade back for 7k more than I paid. If you can wait it out, I would.
  22. Not 4Rrunner, but I know the TRD-Pro for the Tacoma, it made way more sense to just buy the off-road and upgrade the suspension yourself aftermarket. Both from a performance standpoint and a cost standpoint. The only real reason for it was the exclusive colors, and that's a lot of extra cash just for a color.
