TOYOTA PIC OF THE DAY POST (7 Viewers)

I have no plans to change anything from stock on this truck. I have my 60 series that eats up logging roads and loves to be rode hard and put away wet. I was just undergoing a shake test to see if everything is holding up nicely. Test complete, rode hard and put away washed inside and out.

Why? Weight is killer. I rebuilt my entire tub with proper 16 ga and even that seems overkill after the beercan tin of a 60

Back in '92, when I built the tub on a gravel driveway in Radium Hotsprings, the local welding shop had a choice of 1/8" steel or 22 gauge. The 18 year old me fixing up an old beater opted for 1/8". I wasn't interested in sheet metal that would flap in the breeze. 30 odd years later it's solid as rock.

Weight distribution is within 50 lbs side to side, and equally well balanced front to rear. I've not weighed it since adding the rear fuel tank in the 8274 out front. The overall end result is almost perfect weight distribution.

I met some random cruiser brothers. Super nice guys! Both 60's were beautiful and had the axt turbos sounding nice.

Beautiful group of trucks! Wide angle camera lens makes your 40 look miniature!

I'm already curious to find out what "hidden treasures" Toshi finds in that truck as time goes on.

He's gonna love the new 3.7 diff gears.
Should really fly on those flatland highways

Better have the back of your pickup full of vodka and meatballs when you meet him.

Been a while since I opened the glove box.
Apparently I've had a squatter.

I'm assuming it's because Andy left and they're suddenly homeless.

They’re completely disoriented and have forgotten the well established pecking order.

Perhaps you need to find a young, virgin sacrifice for them… although Andy strikes me as more of a catholic alter-boy that’s getting on in the years. But they’ve lost him nonetheless.

Aging catholic altar boy with deep emotional scars from being molested by a priest...

I was going to leave that implied…

After the Priest, his friends, and bunch of other strangers… a Swed impersonator did unspeakably things to him. The Swedish Authorities may never let Andy roam free again because of the horrors he’s been put through.

I don’t think I have seen this one before on the island…

Perhaps here on mud.

Wow, that guy I sold Andy to works fast...

 

[seapotato]

She was a good girl all summer, so I bought her some jewelry.

I'll take the aprons off and give them a squirt of green before mounting.

Wasn't sure if they'd be knockoffs when I ordered but if they are, they're pretty damn nice.

Like alarmingly so...

 

[seapotato]

I'll take the aprons off

I mean...you had to know that wasn't gonna happen.
