    Duluth Fire Hose Pants Testimonials??

    I noticed that too in my fleece lined pants. The snow didn't melt I could just brush it off and they never did get wet after I went inside.

    critical failure on Tacoma: assistance needed

    Whoa! :Wow1: That's all that happened to you? Boy, you were lucky; not all Toyota owners have been so fortunate. Hopefully, our elected representatives will enact legislation to provide Federal oversight to keep this sort of shoddy workmanship from happening again.

    Snow in Arkansas! 1/29-31/2010

    Memorable bridge picture - all the pics are great. You are one busy guy in that truck, lending truth to the old saying that, "a rolling Tacoma grows no moss."

    Very nice. I like your plans for its future modifications - keep us posted. It sounds like you have some neat ideas ahead for it.

    Canback top question

    True, I've never had a problem getting in touch with them for questions about the rack and later with tech-related questions when installing it. The instructions for mounting them are in the box with the uprights although when I called asking about the mounting system before purchasing he...

    Canback top question

    I'm not certain of the set-up for your PU and any difference with my gen Tacoma, or how old your topper is built - there were some design changes in when there was a management/ownership change a while back if IIRC. I have spreader bars between the hoops that have tabs welded to them that are...

    Hmmm... how does this predicament reflect the "Toyota Way?" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Toyota_Way Seems they might add the sixth principle... Denial.

    auto vs manual

    MT certainly has its advantages but I like my AT off-road. Even with the larger tires, armor, etc. the 3RZ handles it well, especially with the re-gear to 5.29. It almost feels like having a crawler in 4LO 1st gear. Plus, a little brake-throttle modulation using both feet makes most obstacles...

    Flyingwil's Taco is growing up!

    LOL! I remember that thread distinctly! I also recall the brilliant argument made for snorkels as a safety enhancement -- especially for the children. I can't tell you how many times that snorkel has saved my life... and how many times I've showed my wife pictures of a water crossing and...

    Very sorry - I hope it's not long. But I like your strategy to work on your truck and that sweet rack you built.

    Homemade Roofracks.

    4307 that rack is awesome! I especially like the low-profile feature and the holes in the angle and PSP stock allow for infinite tie down options when lashing gear, besides the other features you mentioned. I'm thinking your idea is my solution for a rack over my CanBack. :victory:A couple...

    Wow - that is pretty impressive lighting from the video. I guess the disco effect is just a plus. ;)

    100 series factory Aux tank

    Redneck? I resemble that remark! For the Tacoma there was a company that made an auxiliary tank that featured the filler in the wheel well. What I've learned from my research is that the filler often was a magnet for all sorts of dirt and mud and required hosing off to fill the tank to avoid...

    Is Cook Partner the best? Money vs. Quality

    Way to go Aaron! OBTW Cook Partner also makes 3 sizes of adonized griddles that go nicely with the stove - equally overbuilt for a lifetime of service, or like you suggested any grilling pan will do.
