Damn that is brutal! The gravel trucks are fierce around these parts with all the construction...

Now i have to find some good tires, not sure what to get :-/


x2 on hankooks, they are extremely sticky. Mine have around 100 laps around Harris Hill Raceway and they still will go for another 200. They have turned a bit white because of the lack of tire shine and extreme temperatures but they are still hooking up like crazy!!

Tell me about it I cracked the windshield on my Tacoma a week before I got the frs but damn I've never had a rock the size of a baseball come at me from an oncoming truck. This happened on hwy 27 between center point and kerrville in the last 5 minutes of my 2hr drive across from McQueeney...

After much thought and nagging from the woman I'm going to have to wait for an automatic version :-/, so that means if anyone is looking for a MT Raven with Bespoke let me know, I'll hook you up with my sales guy. Should be here oct 25.

Man I wanted a MT so bad but if anyone other than me needed to drive it I'd be screwed so I bought the auto and have to say I'm very impressed even though its a "slush box"!

To be honest if this was my DD i would probably have gotten auto. My brother used to have a IS-F and the tranny shifted lightning quick, since this tranny is based of the lexus one im sure its ok.
