lol he is gone already haha jk

 

Dude no!! You did so much with it. Oh well...part of that Yota still lives under my truck!

 

Ahhhh, so young and prone to ADHD type decisions, ......hahahaha. Jk...... Hmmmm, any reason you've gone to a gigantic diesel in place of the lil yoter?(I know, it gets around the same mileage, lol).... Just curious....

Everyone has their reasons, ..... that's all that matters, that the reasons are YOURS and that they fit your needs.... I admire your being able to so quickly let go of something you worked so hard on.... Must have been a necessity or strong desire for 'more pulling power', eh? (Or maybe you just can't say on here, "Yeah, it's blowing a couple rings already and a rod bearing is coming loose.... OH YEAH, the top end came apart, too!".... ? lol. Again, jk.) Oh well, .... one less 'red betty' in the club now... lol.

Best wishes and happy new year, man!

 

PS> Even if it's off topic or 'other vehicles'... you'd BETTER come drop me a hyperlink to that new thread, yeah?

 

trust me, it was really hard to let her go. i regretted it as soon as she drove away. was especially tough when i woke up and she wasnt in the driveway. but i just had the feeling something else would let go on me, knowing my trucks history. I needed something i could count on to take 200+ mile drives, and i needed a car that i could get to chico and back relatively easy. was NOT easy in my truck. and i wanted a new project. something new, with a little more power. i havent bought anything yet, but its either gonna be a 7.3 powerstroke or a 1990 12v cummins. ive also been looking at a 3rd gen runner or a tacoma. still havent decided but ill post up some pics when i get it.

 

good luck with the new build, why not find a 12v cummins motor and stick in a ford body?

 

Now you tell him this

 

If its not gonna be a Toyota, get a Cummins! Or put 4BT in a Yota Haha

 

here she is- 1990 dodge cummins. 5" lift, 37" tires, air ride, 75 gal aux. fuel tank... blah blah blah. paint, exhaust, and intake are first.

















75 gal. aux tank

 

75 gal?

damn that's a mortgage payment

 

oops haha its an aux tank, but yea it would be about 460 to fill up the truck and aux tank. 100 gallons total

 

great diesel, best of luck, you know you can put it into a toyota pickup...LOL

 

nice. SA, diesel, and has a cup holder

 

Nice, you getting about same gas mileage as the old toy, or more or less?

 

Sucks you sold the yota, but sweet replacement rig

 

200+ mile trips!?.... you see my trug? it sees 200 miles 70mph I5 everyweek! mtns on the wkend!... no excuses man! lol

bummer, hate seeing it go. I can't stand giving up my hard work to someone else. I got buddy's that constantly build projects and rigs wheel em for 6 months and trade or sell em.off... don't know how they do it lol.

ADHD for sure

 

Love the new truck! Turn up the injection pump a little, and straight pipe

 

Oh and a 5 speed.

 

NICE!!!!! I had a RAM Charger, round the same year, LOVED IT, .... but trim stuff fell off a lot, lol.

have fun!

 

Trim stuff is easily fixed with a few self tapping screws. Haha
