About this episode

The episode features a lively discussion among gearheads about various automotive topics while enjoying food and drinks in a casual setting.

Time for an hour of Black Forest Excellence at Dan's Burrito & Taco Emporium... With enough beer in us to speak Jeep (many F.I.A.T. jokes, plus tonned and LS'd), the Gearhead Consultancy got together in the deep dark woods to chat out the things that matter: 1UZ oil pans, JFS4, Bud Light (back when chainsaws were still funny), tire pressure, heat cycling, expensive brake pads, and keeping the leafs from bonking the frame (of a 4Runner?). There's also Fat Foot Syndrome versus heel-and-toe, rollover Exploders versus the '99 4Runner, and the value of expensive brake pads. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, have some: using up the old tear gas, MikeRoweAgression, erranding sans horn, M.O.A.B.s and Daisy Cutters for Iran, the 'Springs' winterless winter (lousy Smarch weather), and the importance of winter wood. ...And remember, only trash leaves trash.
