Went up to my hood in water and sucked it into my transmission

 

[Qjake]

Should do something before the snow flies, got something in mind?

Pats peak! Pick me up at my house lol

 

[bergs]

Definitely not missing the next meet!

I need an excuse to replace my suspension...:naughty:

 

[emelianenkov]

Where's Pats Peak?

Right near the Henniker trails

 

[jdkilroy]

Hmmm, Saturday? I have work at 5, but I'd love to come along! Is it ok if I drag Sarah there with me? Thanks for the invite to ride along Jon!

Tacoma dudes might be interested, not sure.

 

[jdkilroy]

Absolutely; Sarah would always be welcome !

 

[emelianenkov]

Absolutely; Sarah would always be welcome !

Well I appreciate that quite a bit Jon! Unfortunately I think I will have to pass this weekend. Today is Sarah's birthday and I am going to take her on an awesome adventure tomorrow, so off roading won't be an option.

Thank you again, and I'll take you up on that in the near future!

I have been driving a bunch more highway for work. I do not want to trade my 4runner but it has become apparent I need to make it as MPG friendly as possible. Anyone want to trade stock tires/wheels for 285 Duratracs? 75% tread all highway miles actually. I'd love a set of limited 20s, I could work some cash in as well if necessary to seal a deal.

What wheels do you have? I have hankook dynapros 265/70/17 on sport edition wheels.

I get 18+ mpg

 

[emelianenkov]

17s but I have a v8

So? Lol it's the same wheel setup.

 

[Qjake]

I might be interested. I have a set of 20" limiteds with 275/55-20 Nitto Crosstek's with less then 3k miles on them.

Post some pics of what ya got.

 

[emelianenkov]

I can swap you rim for rim if you want.

I was thinking my rims are in bad shape, but yours have some marks too.

So if you want to trade hankooks for your tires I'm game

 

[emelianenkov]

I appreciate the offer. These tires are still pretty new. I'd prefer to try to find a set of 20s.

I'll take pics. Mine only have like 10-15k

I can include some cash if you want to compensate for wear, cause those tires are what I've been looking for. I know I don't have 20's but yeah... Oh well

 

[emelianenkov]

Still have a lot of tread left and they look aggressive so your truck doesn't look like a mall crawler lol

I'm also getting right around 20-21mpg with them

 

[emelianenkov]

They look good but No thanks man, I'd rather hold onto these and just bite the bullet at the pump. How's the tranny going?

Tranny is going like sh*t. I need $675 to buy the trans, then I think Billy can hook me up with a lift and a roof to keep dry and warm lol.

I'm doing my brakes on Monday or Tuesday in the snow . I love New England and not having a God damn garage!

I also owe close to $5,000 for last minute repairs and such, so I can't save for the trans because I need to pay people back... Life sucks haha

 

[emelianenkov]

Ya no garage here either. I do have a pop up tent I have used before but no heat

I would kill for the pop-up. My major problem is mosquitoes in spring, summer, and fall! I live too close to a pond lol

 

[Hyde802]

Dis you guys wheel this weekend?

Did a little on my trails with the 4runner. Nice to finally get some snow!

And a Merry Christmas! Haha

 

[emelianenkov]

No wheelin for me! I wish though. I miss the trails . Stupid broken trans!

Does anyone know a member that lives or works in Somerville? I work in the Union Square area pretty often and keep seeing a lifted gray 4th gen with an arb bumber and a roof rack. I have some questions for them about their setup.
