"Where there's a will, there's a way!"
Hi team,
Here lately I've been noticing that quite a few of you have been shopping around and ordering
'Brand new' 4Runners; 2014 and '15 models. And not just plain ole new trucks, but
'SR5 and
Trail Edition Premiums! So you all inspired me! I decided to get me a brand new 2014 or '15 4Runner... maybe a TRD Pro or something like that.
So, I took a trip over to the bank and sat down with the girl in the corner office; you know the one, I think her name is
Amanda, kinda cute... :girl:
Anyways, I told her I was buying a brand new truck. I went on to say that... "We're all gettin one (over at T4R), brand new"! I told her that I wanted to withdraw
ALL OF MY MONEY I HAVE SAVED UP! ...to which she said... "just give me a minute and I'll make that withdrawal for you sir!" While I was sitting there, I was thinking... "what a nice bank this is... and everyone's so nice as well..." When 'Amanda' returned, she handed me a slip of paper that had a sum total written down on the bottom that said:
$36. I looked at Amanda and said... I don't understand, what is this? :wow: She looked back at me and replied... "That's your
'combined total' savings and checking balance!"
I responded by saying a few favorite cuss words, followed by declaring
'My signature': "...And I'll never bank here AGAIN!" :yell:
Fast fwd: I went over to the local
"Auto Zone" and picked up some supplies; Paint remover, some silver paint...
I removed the
"Toyota Mud guards" from the truck; getting kinda ratty looking. I laid them out on the ground and rinsed them off. When they were dry I sprayed them w/ the paint remover and allowed it time to dissolve the paint as instructed. When the mud guards were clean (ridden of old paint), I prepared a place indoors to repaint them; a little too windy outdoors for painting. I gave them about three thin coats before going to bed.
And today was the big day...
THE INSTALL! Here's a few pics:
And "VOILA"
