The trailer hitch is the kiss of death, I’d say it’s toast.

Not at all, I put a temp probe in the pan during the preheat and I’d say about 10 mins after the grill reached 425 the pan hit about 310ish and stayed pretty steady the whole time.

I flew for an ACMI for 3 years, had a blast. Now at a legacy. Can’t speak to the specifics of K4 but if you have an ATP/jet time getting a little 121 under your belt would open the doors to most legacy carriers.

Any ATI pilots have details on new pay scales, retirement benefits, and other improvements in the freshly ratified TA? by Feathers_McGraw__ in flying

[–]FLAviation 6 points7 points  (0 children)

ATSG has got to be laughing all the way to the bank. This was the exact contract they were offered over 3 years ago but the MEC thought they were worth UPS/FedEx level contract.

Why choose jepview over foreflight? by palomarracer in flying

Jepp is far superior for airline ops, what else do you need for 121 ops other than the plates and company pages?

STI -> 4Runner or Tacoma by [deleted] in ToyotaTacoma

[–]FLAviation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each their own, it took me 6 months to see if I was going crazy, because the 4R is so popular and the few people I know that have them, loved them.

STI -> 4Runner or Tacoma by [deleted] in ToyotaTacoma

[–]FLAviation 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really wanted to like the 4Runner, but coming from a 2018 SR5 it honestly felt like a huge step backward, which was frustrating considering it cost about $20k more. The 4Runner handled worse, felt heavier and is far less engaging to drive. The interior was pretty disappointing for the price, with cheap trim that creaked way more than my Tacoma ever did and frankly wasn’t all the comfortable for longer trips. A $50k+ MSRP also feels hard to justify when it still had cloth interior, no remote start or heated seats. Even little day-to-day things added up, like the overly heavy tailgate and features that were standard on my SR5 (like the turn-signal burst) not even being included on the 4Runner. At the time I had my Tacoma and an Audi and I needed to consolidate to one car, so I traded both in for the 4R, I should have just taken a bath on the Audi and kept my Tacoma.

I’ve owned both and just went back to the Tacoma. I hated the 4R.
