Pulled the dash center section off because one of my 3 12v outlets was dead. I found that the Best Buy stereo installer just forgot to plug in the connector when installing my new radio.

It has been like this for 3 months now but works again.

I parked it. I'm riding a motorcycle to work now, but then my wife decided to keep the LC in the garage instead, so she's driving it. Either way we're saving a little bit of gas.

I went into West Marine to buy some stainless screws to replace the missing ones from my front fender liner. The guy at the register told me I could have them for nothing!

Left it parked and drove my GTO to work. The Yota doesn't do well on the 65mph highway.

I smiled at it as I got into the company truck and left for work.

Well I put my mild lift on today. TRD coils up front (no spacers) and OME 890s out back. Here is a before and after picture. I got 1.75" up front and 3.25" out back. I know they will settle some still. I just put them on, but so far one trip around the block, they feel great.

I was messing with my seat rails, though I didn't do much because it got up to the 80's today.

Well, it was even hotter today. I think it is about 87 or so, which is TOO EARLY FOR MONTANA!!! And it is supposed to be 90, so today, while at school, I called the local junk yards, and asked about some motors. I am going to take out my speakers, and then take my top off.

I got mine muddy...for the first time with the big tires and lift! Took it through a shallow ford, and on some fun little trails. Sadly nothing I needed 4x4 for though.

Last night felt like it got DOWN to the 80's.
