Lets not forget cruiserdan while he is out

I thought while Dan was out we could take a moment to refresh ourselves on the shamans reach. I am sure you have more stories, post them up so when he returns he can see he has not been forgotten:



This person told cruiserdan that Toyota OEM hoses were not any better than the checker auto hoses he just put on. One week later, the same hoses:



This person told cruiserdan that the amazing valve carbon cleaner and Headgasket replinisher did the job and he didn’t need to worry about his headgasket. One week later:



This Jeep owner said to cruiserdan, “Land Cruisers aren’t anything special, anyone can drive them”.




This person told cruiserdan that he thought the drilled after market rotors and pads were better than OME. Traffic slowed on the highway for this individual and his brake failed crashing into one of those highway water filled orange things:



This person did not heed cruiserdans advice to trade in the van on a Land Cruiser. They now own a Land Cruiser




This individual bought his front axle rebuild kit from one of those aftermarket suppliers and told cruiserdan how much money he saved. A week later Dan had his credit card number:




This person told cruiserdan he didn’t need any OEM paint.. Well, some things just happen without Dan’s intervention:



This is cruiserdans uncle Ned, everyone has one in his family. He wanted to be supercharged like Dan



Do you have a crusierdan story?

Cruiserdan told me not to take the brown acid.

I should have listened.

I've got him! Maybe you can have him back, maybe not. I frisked him upon capture and only came up with a couple of the big oil filters and a head gasket. We're subjecting him to 3.2 Utah beer until he coughs up the good stuff.

This person bought their rod ends from JT outfitters and told Dan they looked better than OEM



This person was just told who the person was he just cut off on the trail by Uncle Ben. He knew the Shaman would find him and make him pay for cutting him off. Uncle Ben was not able to keep him from Jumping.



This person had just told Dan that he bought a new Radiator from JT Outfitters and that it was pretteier than OEM. It sprung a leak on the top a few minutes later and he is quickly trying to "plug it"

The passenger on the left just told the driver that cruiserdan would not negotiate his price on the new tie rod ends so he got them elsewhere and spent the savings on Beer. They then went down a very steep embankment without any steering.




This poor bastard told cruiserdan that Toyota parts sucked. No one knows what happened, but all that was found was the pile of and the Bezel from his FJ40.



This is where cruiserdan has gotten his meat for the last 20 years. I am talking about the place on the left, hmmmmmm



This individual did not take cruiserdans advice and used Dexetrol Anti-Freeze. The suprising thing is this happened during the summer.

Butch had a conversation with cruiserdan about not using anymore Toyota parts. That night Butch had a nightmare about the birth of his new grandchild. He called Dan the next day with a big order. Those who know who the baby looks like, knows why he called quickly.

That looks like a pile of used socks.
