mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted September 20, 2014 I am waiting for the release of the Toyota Prius truck. What a frigging joke that is like the honda ridgeline ....it should be illegal to call something like that a truck. I dont even like a short bed truck. Never liked the toy mini trucks much either.

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted September 20, 2014 ridgeline is a urban wanabe truck- hardly the capacity for grocery getting. now the short bed is a must for me to fit it in the garage . . .and my vehicles are always garaged Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mabscotthandyman 1,410 Posted September 20, 2014 ridgeline is a urban wanabe truck- hardly the capacity for grocery getting. now the short bed is a must for me to fit it in the garage . . .and my vehicles are always garaged I like long beds for my work hauling building material and even signs... at times I will have a 10 or 12 foot lighted sign on the trailer and another in the truckbed plus tools or a load of 12 ft decking or framing material so the long bed is almost a must. I do like the crew cab trucks but are hard to find in long bed any more so is finding a two wheel drive in a used truck unless you can find a fleet maintained truck 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edge 67 Posted September 21, 2014 Oh geez, now I feel like I've gone to the dark side. With all this truck talk here, my restraint gave way... I came home with a Tacoma 4X4 Access Cab on Friday. When did they start making small trucks so big? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcextreme 475 Posted October 8, 2014 Thanks. The engine is in and i have most of the stuff hooked back up. Still gotta do a few gas lines and the exhaust manifolds. Then coolant and priming the oil pump and get a new battery, and she should start up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcextreme 475 Posted October 28, 2014 UPDATE: Been driving the truck a few blocks to work and around town, just to sort out any issues. I have a brake line up at the master cylinder i have to replace, its leaking. I ordered my new wheel bearing hubs and front driveshafts yesterday, will be installing them this weekend. Got some new 'used' tires put on it, 31" BFG All-Terrain TA/KO, same type that were on it before. Picked up these 4 tires for $180 and they have about half tread left, so they will get me thru this winter and maybe next. Anyway, since my Red Ranger is an Autobot named "Shadow"Trax, i decided this one would be a Decepticon, named "SHRAPNEL" so i did up a few decals for it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
