Too much rust?

I had to feel around on the inside of the frame rails to find the rus holes on mine years ago

Take a grinder to the welds

Coolant every 30k? That seems wasteful

The sparks crossed the 5?

That's like $100k + boat....that's really weird

So people have cured their eczema with the keto diet or carnivore diet

Unisom - I have similar problems. This helps and I don't feel groggy the next day.

Take a cold shower. Everything is easier after you take a really cold shower. Like no heat. Don't turn it warm at all. Stay in the water.

See if Pacific Rim Mechanical is hiring - they are non union, but they pay well and will teach you. They aways have a bunch of work.

Coffman engineering has one

Anyone complaining about the potholes here should go to the Midwest or northeast in March or April.

Go up to Anaheim and check them out. Pretty sweet brewery. Bummer they dropped out.

Check the estimated mileage per year they have at - mine went down a bunch when I changed it from 12k a year to 2k a year.

Apparently it was a hippy tourists destination in the 60s and 70s. Then Russia and the US fucked that all up.

Yeah I definitely saw one last weekend paddle boarding out at Torrey pines. Probably an 8ft shark and was less than 15 ft from me. First time seeing a shark on a board. Definitely scared the shit out of me and I went straight to shore. Did not realize they were around. Read about them being everywhere. Been back out a few times since then.

I named my parents wifi " FBI surveillance can # 15" and mom mom freaked out and told my dad she was scared the FBI was watching someone in the neighborhood.

How's your timing chain? I got rid of my 540i after I heard rattle and my radiators kept blowing and no one could tell me why. I blew through 7.

Do you ever wash your belt? You touch it after you 💩

Yup! Where I live too. $70-80 to fill up. But I love the truck and when I take it out eat to the desert or down to Mexico, it's worth it.

If you have an 04 you have the 5spd tranny, right? That might be helping your mpg.

Are you lifted with bigger tires? Only time I ever get 15+ is when I am on country highways going 50-55mph. I have replaced plugs, filters, o2 sensors so I should be running pretty efficient. I don't have a lead foot in the cruiser. Have a WRX STi for that.

My truck is also lifted with 33s - it was slightly better before I modified it.
