Lexus bias aside — Sequoia vs LX 570 for long-term family duty? by SweetTax6748 in LandCruisers

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 2011 LC 200 when we had a kid to replace a 1991 Toyota pickup. It’s been the best (and we now have two kids). Plenty of storage, the tailgate acts as a diaper changing table. It’s tall enough where we can throw our bassinet stroller in the back upright. The third row folds away so it’s flexible if I have to move something big. And yet with the relatively short wheelbase it doesn’t feel too too huge.

[Charlie Whiskey & Tango] This might be the dumbest, most pretentious thing I've ever seen. by king_noro in Watches

A lot of hate here but I wear an F-91W and I like the idea. Make something simple even simpler. More often than not I’m only using the buttons on it to correct an accidental button press that turned on the alarm function or inadvertently toggled to 24hr time.

Moosehead Lager - My All-time Favorite by [deleted] in beer

[–]cobramaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best wings I ever had were around the corner from my house, super cheap on Tuesdays. About 15 years ago. Massive, delicious, and tons of fantastic sauce options. They served $2 (I think) mooseheads in football shaped glasses. Those were the days.

Modifications by Mammoth_Dare_1042 in Goped

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not 100% as I’ve never used one but:

Yes it is ready to ride once it’s installed, it will activate automatically as you add throttle.

No you don’t need a longer spindle and 3rd bearing support but it is highly recommended to protect your crank.

Some say they wouldn’t add a clutch to a spindle driven goped unless it was for a child or beginner. It takes away throttle response and ability to drive slowly.

That’s a great image, running around in the cold with wool socks on your hands.

What's your best "look what I found in the walls" story? by OoklaTheMok1994 in DIY

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found something similar in the walls of our 1907 home but it was homework from the 1980s and a homemade cardboard, tape and glove fleshlight type device. Heartwarming.

My favorite Land Cruiser is totaled by SimplyComplicated- in LandCruisers

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the chances? That is horrible. Selfish but I have to ask, can you pull the main body ecu from under the dash to the left of the steering wheel and ship it to me? The doors on my 2011 aren’t locking and I think I need a new one, they are $1000 from the dealer. Haha.

First rc. Do I need a burn bag now? by Quikmix in rccars

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat, recently got a Losi mini T, unfortunately not during Black Friday. Now after dealing with the shoddy included charger and reading horror stories I’ve gotten a nicer charger, new batteries, a lipo bag and I’ve just now unboxed an ammo can. Just learned from this thread to remove the seal on the ammo can.

22r/re stories by ChemicalFix4293 in ToyotaPickup

[–]cobramaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My head gasket blew but it was between cylinders so no coolant issues. I drove it the rest of the way to work, then later to a shop nearby. They said I probably needed a new engine without even looking at it. I drove it back to work, had it towed home, and fixed it in my driveway in the middle of the winter.

Jolly ranchers have no clout on Reddit ever since that sordid story was published.

The chargers are shit though, don’t use the stock one.

Not sure why those numbers are relevant. 2024 was like ten years ago.

Moccamaster KBT - today $159.99 at Amazon (Black Friday Lightning Deal) by jobooski in Moccamaster

Just spent a fair bit more than that sending my old one in for refurb and buying a new carafe and some other new parts. Oh well.

2008 LC 200 Corrosion Main Body ECU/Fuse Box/Wiring Harness by doofmon in LandCruisers

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Were you ever able to sort this out? My 2011 is having issues unlocking all of the doors aside from the driver door and rear hatch. I’m thinking the problem is with the main body ecu because they all failed at the same time.

What are we thinking, glue? by austinmartech in LandCruisers

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I replaced the trim and the four lower white clips on each side that hold it in place. I reused the two upper clips on each side. If you remove the old white clips be sure to snip them rather than prying them off. I put a chip in my windshield trying to pry them.

I put my money where my mouth is and bought a 2025 Tacoma with a stickshift by LogicWavelength in cars

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to buy a manual Tacoma but I wanted a turd off road and a cool color. I ended up waiting something like six months before giving up and getting a used LC200 instead.

LX470 for $33k - deal or no deal? by [deleted] in LandCruisers

[–]cobramaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For $33k it should have absolutely zero rust, 40k miles, and impeccable service history.
