my brother was telling me of a show on TV that did a torture test on toyota trucks. pushed them off of buildings, buried them in the sand and let high tide wash over them, ran them into walls...they ran and drove every time.

i can't wait until my car dies so i can get myself into an earlier model toyota pickup. so easy to work on, great gas mileage, and basically indestructible. not to mention low cost of ownership.
smart man you are


and they are indestructible. I run mine hard and it still treats me well. and yup, easy to work on, great mileage, etc., etc.

Buck, do you believe everything someone tells you they saw on tv? I saw that commercial and it's nonsense. Great trucks, but you cannot drown one in the ocean, then start it up and drive away.

I no like put them on blast. lol but this was one day when we was camping out on the beach. you need 4 wheel drive to get to this point. had a group of about 10 of us, but 4 trucks in total. but ya all toyotas.

Well, currently the wife and I share the SUV we have (Isuzu Rodeo), and I have to say the 4WD in that thing has been a lifesaver in the winters up here. It runs well, is pretty hardy so far...but I was gonna grab something smaller for myself, for when I have shit to do and the wife has the SUV at work.

slow down brother.Question 1) So do you have spark and no fuel ? or Do you have neither? We need to narrow it down between ignition or fuel.Rarely is it both at the same exact time,but stranger things have happened.
I always check the relay before my pumps.My relays would stick all the time.I'd fix it w/ a jackknife and be GTG.I've had very little pump failures on the 89ish fords.But that can be a regional/rusty tank issue.We don't get any rust up here

No i was not getting spark which is why i replaced the coil but i also wasnt getting any fuel thru the second pump

My daughter is seven today. She wants to try cherry pie with ice cream.

Do you remember your 7th birthday and what made you happy?
