Quote:What you been feeding that thing?
Hell man I only got 10k miles on it. bought it with 105k it sits at 115k now, it's a Toyota those things are usually bulletproof. My only guess is who ever had it before wasn't doing the oil change every 5k or they where using the cheap oil instead of the blended stuff. I was doing the second oil change when I pulled the dipstick and to my horror found metal all up the stick. So I dropped the pan and sure enough, metal in the oil pan. Closed her up, topped her off, trading it in today before it becomes my problem.

Glad I won't be in the market for a used Tundra.
I'm having a problem with my motivation at work today. Maybe it'll improve after I take a nap.

The band I travel with a bunch just got a new in ear monitoring system and an endorsement discount on the headsets, so I pulled the trigger on a better pair.
Nice. I wonder how much different that is.

How you do embed a Gif into your signature/sign off on here?
I tried copying and pasting from the website of the Gif I wanna use, but it hasn't worked..
Yo Eric.
What kind of super paste are they using to attach oil pans these days? What a sonofagun.

It looks like the last owner saw the same thing and also traded it in before it became a bigger problem for him. You think it was from bad oil changes, like using cheap oil or not doing them every 5K miles?
I'm guessing you have had it less then a year since you only put 10K miles on it.
You are right about the usually bullet proof reputation on Toyota trucks though. I know a few owners of them, including me, and they are great trucks, especially if you do the regular maintenance on them.
What year is it?

It must have been heavy metal.

lol, I was thinking that exact thing and then I saw your post.
Good one Bunnie.
Quote:Also, how many of y'all are impressed by me being a juror? It's okay, you can tell me.
I know I'd much rather be the juror then either the
victim or the
defendant, even the innocent defendant.
OK, I'm impressed that you were a juror instead of one the other 2 options listed above.

Do I get extra points for reading it like it was sung?
