I have squadron pros in my fog light location. They’re bright AF.
I was thinking I should just go pro’s. Bd look the best aesthetically unless you go kc gravity series which are moneyyyyy. The diode dynamics pro’s get killer reviews as well. Somebody posted a sweet review of a lot of lights on Tacoma world.

If I could do it all over again I’d be tempted to get some LP9s. Yes they’re way overkill for what I’m using them for but f-it. I figure it’s best to get the most I can afford so I don’t keep chasing the next upgrade

Left the big local credit union. Going to be installing custom windows and doors w/ a buddy of mine and his dad for a few months while doing school and getting my A+ and CCNA or Network+ certificates. Going to get those and try to get a job as a network admin or similar. Then still going to finish my AS in electrical engineering and decide if I want to get my bachelors or not.
Nice! Lots of big moves going on. Good luck thru it all.

Anybody built their own house out here? We're looking into buying a lot and then doing a "modular" house on it. Looks like it could be a pretty cool way to go.

That's my plan when I can build on my land. Modular is the way to go. 50-90k depending what you want just for the home. Haven't looked into foundation, plumbing, and electric yet. I know my land has water, sewer, and electric to the street. Probably going to have to get a propane tank for cooking/heating.

My old stomping grounds. I grew up in Heber. I lived in Show Low and worked at Horne Chevrolet for a year before I moved to PA. I miss the mountains and will always call Heber my hometown.

We're researching it right now. Looking at a 1.15 acre lot that isn't too far from the freeway so it won't feel like we're living in the boondocks. Buying the lot would leave us about $100k in the budget (construction loan rolled into mortgage upon completion) for the rest. We don't need a particularly large house so we'd probably end up on the cheaper end of the modular houses.

The other thing we're playing around with is having it built w/ a room set up to be an air bnb. Basically a bedroom/bathroom w/ exterior access that we could rent out. If we did a roommate they'd need kitchen access and all that. Air bnb we can set up more like a hotel room.

So quick side note, I want more castor....can a garage mechanic do it or should I bring it back to the shop? Minivan is twitchy on the highway post kings (I only added like half an inch of lift over the 6112’s) just pull the rear castor bolt all the way out and move the front one all the way in? Or is that also gonna screw up toe?

17 x 8.5 with -10 backspace. I need some more room for the rear shocks as they are close to rubbing with stock setup

new or used from a local guy? I saw a dude had those and went to -38 instead and now can’t figure out how to stop rubbing the

It's doable in the garage, but yeah you're gonna fuck up toe and camber too. So you'll need to be able to check all aspects.

Oh really? Nice. I love it up here. My wife grew up here. I been off and on living here for the last 10 years or so. But it's starting to get more congested so may be time to move north into a smaller town.
