Endless, i have another comment on your truck. I don't like lowriders, BUT...that thing has really smooth clean lines. Another question, so over the LX, RR or the Cayenne, which is the funnest to drive? Be honest.

Oh, and what is that red thingy located under the steering wheel?

 

[alia176]

Red thingy - Antitheft device?

Just don't get into a head on collision man! Things are gonna fly in that cab!

Concretejungle, Be honest Fun to drive for SUV is Cayenne Turbo i mean its SUV but handles like sports car yeah but pricey... i cant afford to get Turbo.
I think the fastest SUV right now is Cayenne Turbo S, And i dont think with LC80 equipped with Turbo can beat the Turbo S.

 

[concretejungle]

Endless, i was curious cause i have a friend who bought his wife a cayenne (non turbo) but he says he enjoys driving his 80 more than the cayenne.

Bang for buck only right?

Best: Trailhead deflators and PVC rod racks.

Hey Endless, try Paragon Adventure Park in PA or Piine Barrens in NJ, or join GCLCs and wheel with some local guys.

 

[Arya Ebrahimi]

endless, I wasn't challenging the fact that you don't take it offroad, just why you have an inclinometer in a truck that doesn't go offroad.....It's like putting curb-feelers on a rock-crawling rig......

 

[LX_TREME]

Macneill, Im not in east coast no more hey but i drove the truck from NYC to LA-(CA) 3days 3 night
2988Miles $ 380 buks just the gas.

Arya Ebrahimi, about the inclinometer the other day i went to pepboys kinda check around on things

PSJ1945, you gotta show me where so of 'em tension wires are...

Didn't know Montauk had trails either.

I do most of my fishing on Chappaquidick.

 

[psj1945]

MACNEILL------------the trails might be able to be located with a mountain bike trail map, Bike Hamton in Sag Harbor NY 11963 has good trail maps. I have a lot of hours mountain biking in the trails out east. PS I heard you mention fishing, I used to be a light takle guide (Sight casting stripers). I would be happy to tell you what I know about any trails etc. pete

1997 40th

Best bang for buck:

Buying the truck with factory diff locks
CDL switch and pin7 mod
Remove running boards (with help of big rock)
Cut off catalytic converters and turn 90 degrees. (my wife was ticked! she though I went out and got the truck lifted HIGHER)
OME
Husky liners!!!

So-so: custom exhaust, my design...increase in HP but used to small a muffler so it's too loud and resonates at highway speeds. I'm goin' Borla next time (but this is much offset by the fact I turned my cats at the same time, did I mention that's a good mod?)

worst $ spent? That stupid in-dash cupholder. Too small to hold much of anything, blocks the CD slot and stereo controls, and bounces so much (on-road and off) that you may as well just throw the drink all over the dash yourself. Waiting for it to break so I can put the useless-but-not-as-messy change slot back in.

Hey, at least we both have one mod in common. Both have LoJack

Except for one thing Junk . In your case you've strapped the LoJack transmitter to the back of a white squirrel . Thief gets in to steal your 80 , and out pops the squirrel . Win/win ... the cops find a white squirrel instead of your POS 80 , and some dirtbag gets stuck with it ! Justice for all ...


And off to the Toyota lot you go , insurance cheque in hand . Lets see thats $247.99 , so you're lookin at a used scooter , I think
