    Video- you probably won't make it in Wyoming

    Lived in a neighboring state, MT, for four years and experienced the cold and snow. 99% sure I don't want that anymore. So cold your eyelashes freeze shut, had to have chains on the truck (rwd Chevy truck) for ~two months, heating fuel costs (depends on the system), etc. I'm on the other end...

    Maxshine towels - wow!

    I seriously doubt it. It is very soft. Softer than anything I've ever used to dry off a vehicle. I don't think my neighbor would use or recommend it. He does some high end cars every once and a while.

    Tundra oil

    I've been running M1 0w40 FS in my 4.7 4Runner for years. All oil samples have come back downright boring and noneventful (ie: great!)

    How much is your vehicle tag in your state ?

    The 07 4Runner registration showed up 5/13. $62.96 for two years. And the saving by doing two years on the 5.0 almost paid for all of the 4R's. Got the emissions done Thursday...maybe I'll get the tag in the mail today, two days later like the other car. Very fast turnaround!

    What are you doing right now?

    Already ate the lunch. Sorry. 🤪 J/K. I'll try to remember to get one when the light is better in the evening.

    What are you doing right now?

    Washed the 5.0 this morning, used a new drying towel (worked great!), put a coat of TW Hybrid ceramic on...pondering lunch right now. :unsure:

    Maxshine towels - wow!

    I've been using a synthetic chamois, the Absorber, for well over a decade now. Seemed to be the latest/greatest thing at the time. I've seen detailers on YT use these new towels and wondered if it was a gimmick. My neighbor is a detailer as uses them, so I asked. He said they work great and...

    Charter/Spectrum and Cox Communication merger talks

    I saw that, too, on ads that pop up on Yahoo. I've thought about calling them to adjust the speed since I pay $50, but don't know if I want to poke the bear. I don't know why they just don't adjust it automatically. A friend is paying what I pay through Cox, but has 100/10 speed. He says...

    Charter/Spectrum and Cox Communication merger talks

    Charter Cox More details in the link above. I have Cox internet only: $50 for 250/20. I generally get in the 290s, though. Hopefully things stay the same except for the customer service. Very hit or miss and sales will outright lie to you.

    Societal addiction to phones

    About a month ago, a guy on one of those single wheel electric skateboards whizzed by going the opposite way at about 25mph...staring at his phone. Darwin just itching to give him an award!

    Purduebik Cube World Record

    That's really cool! When the cubes came out, I got a book detailing how to solve it. Memorized it and I could do it within 1:30 or :30...can't remember which. Doing this backfired on me. My classmates found out and were constantly "Hey, can you fix my cube?". Got to be exasperating and...

    What are you doing right now?

    Relaxing. Earlier: Washed the 4R while it was cool. Put together the last two (of four) dining room chairs that I FINALLY bought for the table. Completed online courses for the new job.

    Lol...house for sale where I got knocked out in '82

    I don't think helmets were even available back then. Only wore one during sanctioned BMX racing. Wonder what the stats are of then vs now? Though BMXers are doing 1000% more crazy stuff now than then.

    Lol...house for sale where I got knocked out in '82

    Yeah! Prices have definitely gone WAY up. We lived in a house about .25 mile away. I think Mom bought it in late '84 for $85k. It is now $550k-600k. @Expendable Never made it to Libby, closest was Thompson Lake area to go fishing with friend and his dad. Going to Missoula was the "big city"...

    Lol...house for sale where I got knocked out in '82

    While reading @GON 's thread on house for sale in WY, I thought about where I used to live in MT and thought I'd peruse the RE there. Came upon a house that looked familiar, but couldn't place it...and then thought "no way!" Clicked on it and looked at the exterior pictures. Yup! That was it...

    GX460/A760F help me decide on WS ATF Replacement.

    Different trans, but I used Amsoil in the 4Runner. It's been in about 8 years now with no issues.

    Power company scam ... in person

    I got this one (Amazon) and put it right beside the doorbell: BUT, there are those clowns that chose to ignore it. When they do, they ALWAYS face the opposite way to "show" that they didn't see it. It has greatly cut down on the knocks, but oddly this year I've had 3-4 of them so far.

    How much is your vehicle tag in your state ?

    Just did the 2018 5.0, $338 for two years. One year would have been $187. The 07 4R is coming up next month and hopefully the discount on the 5.0 will pay for the 4R for two years, or at least most of it!
