#Shitbox

[shiftythrifting]

misc finds. All found at thrifts in the Boise, ID area over the last several weeks.

I'm endeared by the concept of a toy fire truck coming with a smoke detector. No constructive commentary on anything else here except for I almost bought the Bean Drawer just to free the frog.

I did a full brake replacement on the truck.

Spent 5 hours fucking with one drum yesterday, the parking brakes were seized and the shoes were gripping the drum so I had to pry it off. The cylinder on that side was leaking so I got a new one, which I had to take back because the guy gave me the wrong one (he was so embarrassed), then discover I had the wrong hardware kit (which was the one the shoe manufacturer reccomended so wtf). The shoes on that side were very thin.

Today I finished that first drum and did the other three wheels. The first one was the only one that was truly bad, other than some rust on the rotors the others were not in bad shape. Last year a mechanic had worked on the rear brakes and it makes me wonder if he only serviced one side, the stuff I took out of the "good" side looked almost new.

I tried bleeding the brakes because I did have to replace a cylinder, but the other screws I had the shop put in a couple weeks ago so I could bleed the brakes if I needed are too tight and one was starting to strip. So much for that.

Anyways, the pedal is really soft still, so it's either out of adjustment, a bunch of air got in the lines during that split second I had the cylinder off, or that new cylinder is a dud.

I thought regular Teslas were bad enough (they are) on account of being exploding deathtraps.

But the Cybertruck sounds like a fucking disaster on wheels!

Like it was built to fail!

A self destructive overhyped piece of ridiculous tinpot shitfuck.
