Did it do anything odd when you slammed it between park and drive?

 

[Bama4door]

Engine shut off and all of the lights on the dash came on including the ATF hot light next to the shifter. I slammed it in R not P though

 

[jemsec]

You have guts. Glad it turned out ok.

I hit P in my Infiniti M30 when I was in high school. It made a really god awful grinding noise and started to lock up the rear wheels before I yanked it back into D. I guess the "trick" to the party trick is that you're doing 60+ mph?

Hmm. Not the results I've heard. It's not supposed to do anything engine wise. AFAIK.

Maybe stalled it and it christmas tree'd the lights like it does when you're on ACC but the engine isn't running?

 

[Land Speeder]

Something else must be going on then... nothing is supposed to happen:

Missed this the first go round I suppose. This is why it died on you... Pretty sure it's gotta go to park, not another gear.

 

[Bama4door]

Oh well, I read some say R some said P...at least it worked haha

BUMP!

Went to Stony this past weekend for some New Year riding.... It's AWESOME! I may go back between now and this ride... We'll see.

Who's planning on this trip? Bunk houses are awesome!
Also, There's a Stony Lonesome Cafe about 2 miles form the park that has buffet breakfast and Lunch and awesome food at night...

This park is SO legit. Stock rigs will easily love this place. Keith's buddies in Tacomas love it. I invited them to this ride. I hope they come.

 

[BamaPaul]

I'll be there

 

[Bama4door]

Hoping to still be there and one of my buddies from Tuscaloosa is going to bring his 40 if he can get everything put back together on it.

which 40 owner do you know?

I have seen a few in town, but I have only met 1 guy and I am pretty sure he sold all his junk and moved on to a new hobby.

 

[Bama4door]

His name is Reid, he isn't on this site though. He's from Tuscaloosa and has a black linex'd 40 on 33s with ARB lockers and a big bumper on the front

I havnt seen that one.


there is a restored blue 40, restored red 40, this one 2 different green ones, and last I heard Sasquatch had his junk running, but was driving a 4runner

there are also a handful of pigs, which is pretty cool. and there are a few newer wagons floating around. nothing like b-ham though, where you cant go to the store to buy a pack of smokes without running into an 80 or 100.


I am going to start carrying around flyers.

 

[Bama4door]

Yea I grew up in bham and you really do see them all over the place, not sure what the deal is.

In an effort to get back into a wheelable rig as well as live in the city.... mainly cause I see hunnerds EVERYWHERE in bham... (are they made here?! JEEBUS!) I'm now looking for one. I will most likely dump the Tundra in with a trade-in, so I'd want to find a dealer most likely.
I've traveled in the 100 before and they are too nice. My new job will have me traveling daily, so that's another reason i want a 100... cause I know this engine will perform well with 200k+ miles as well. Not many vehicles can say that.
When the time comes, the 4.7 will have no issue towing a rock bouncer either.... no 5.7 mind-you, but it will do work.

Also, looking for navy blue, prolly call it something like "Blue Work" (play off of Do Work), that's not important right now though! Maybe call it Bleu Cheese... But that would be awkward if it's maroon...

So keep an eye out!

I've been to many cities, and obviously am always waiving at anyone in a Land Cruiser.... I've lived in bham for 4 months now... and I've stopped waiving. I am convinced that 100 and 200 series cruisers were made here...

Toyota is as represented on the shows as it is in the trails.
I'm willing to bet that most people here would not be driving these money pits if it didn't have the "cool factor" of rarely being any on the road.
There just aren't that many cruisers out there. It's blown me the frick away at how many are in bham. I joked last year that I'm beginning to think they're made here. I see at least one everytime I go to the summit.

something like that.

Do I have a stalker?
Are you gonna change your screen name to Hand Sweeper?

I thought there were more, but when you search "are they made here" mud ignores every word except "made"

a google search found this one.

shoot, bham is FILLED with cruisers. I'm blown away at how many are here. I believe they gotta be made here in Vestavia/Mtn Brook/Homewood... It's no wonder college kids bring'em to college sometimes from their parents left-overs!

That green 40 that Sasquatch has is pretty awesome, love the swampers and black wheels
