What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

People have no idea what it takes us rust belters to get a 22 yr old vehicle to pass inspection on a yearly basis. That badge is a prize in itself.

 

The beatings will continue until morale improves

 

Our work motto.

 

Same tire that had the chunk taken out of the sidewall? That sucks

 

DAMMMM, you JUST got those! what the F

 

This is the tire that went flat due to the old ass rotten valve stems they didn’t replace when they mounted them.

 

Ah I'm mixing up people with tire troubles it seems. They should warranty that out yeah?

 

Shop is replacing it due to their negligence

 

Ours was, "The meetings will continue until productivity improves."

 

But how can productivity improve if you’re always in a meeting?

I know what you mean though.

 

I will likely never buy the certs. The KBro 2's that you hate have never met me down. But I also don't wheel as hard as you. I think I'm gonna try some KBro3's next.

If the certificates were a great deal for the customer, Discount Tire wouldn't offer them. They cost as much as one tire. If I destroy a tire, I've broken even. I have two destroy two before it actually works out to my advantage.

Put another way, when you buy the certificates you're essentially paying for 5 tires. In 20 years of driving I've only destroyed 1 tire.

 

Don't jinx yourself on your next set of tires...

 

Think it's between 295-297 mm. IIRC min is stamped on drum.



Mine are original with >250k measured with 12" caliper from HF.

 

What??? Hold up homie...
The cert cost me $60 (used to be $40) and a tire costs at least $240 on a good day. So I bought 5 at full price in 2019 and used certs to replace 4. How is that a scam? I got 9 tires for the price of 6 basically. I paid $1500 for five tires and certs and if I had to pay full price to replace the four tires I've slaughtered I'd have paid $2160 for a savings of $660. That's basically math bro.

 

Lemme give you a hand there.

 

Let's see em!

 

Stop teasing us

 

She deserves one of these now... To make up for your negligence.





Glad to have you back brother
I'm hoping to get Elvira back from the shop soon and then we can make plans to meet for my OEM LSD.

 

Rebuild it with a transgo shift kit

 

I posted it 4.5 hours ago in the lunchtable.

 

I haven't found my way there yet

 

I preferred it at SES62, myself.

 

Here you go. Scratch me once, shame on you. Cool part about the latest Highlander is, you can adjust how far the rear gate opens. Just press the button to stop at the preferred height, then press and hold the button for 4-5 seconds and it’ll remember that height. Sadly, the required height prior to rigging this up is the exact height where I whack my head into the rear hatch door.

 

Maybe my tires are no good or just got a good deal but for $893.28 in 2022 got 4 Pathfinder AT 275/70/R18 from Discount Tire.

This is them up against the Toyo AT2s that took off

I've been running Cooper AT3XLT for years and I love em. But I keep destroying em. So I'll be trying out something different maybe next year.

 

Cooper st maxx. Do it.

 

Why are you awake at 0330 sir?

 

Inflation. The cost of the certificates now are $233. Cost of 1 tire is $312. So I was a little off.

Math still doesn't check out for me since I'm not out destroying tires. If I had purchased the certs for my current tires, I would have lost that money since I never destroyed one.

Since you keep destroying tires, it makes sense for you.

Discount Tire makes money on people buying these certificates because the average person doesn't actually use them.

 

I'm back n forth between the Kenda Klever 35x10.5r17 or a few 35x11.5r17 that I can get for Discount Tire.

 

What’s the plan for clearing 35’s?
