Stick with using your hands buddy, work is always steady, annoying but steady. People will always need expirenced hands, just find the right place and you will be rewarded. The jobs that don't require hard work are always greener from the other pasture, they have the constant threat of replacement by someone willing to work for less or a cell phone app. Expirenced hard working hands are almost nonexsistent now, it's getting to the point that I can charge about what I want bc no one else can or will do it. Don't jump off the train before it comes into our stop...

I still intend to do hands on on the side, just looking more for supplemental income and more flexibility.

Maybe I just do real estate on the side lol.

About 1,000 miles on the Landcruiser since I’ve got it going. Slowly getting it to where I want it.

It’s kinda nice to drive, so nimble. Power sucks though LOL

Does your land cruiser have the 4.7 2UZ? I have a 01 Tundra and its the same deal. I absolutely love to drive it but power and mileage leaves alot to be desired. Sad part is there's not much that can be done about it outside of full engine swap

Didn't TRD offer a supercharger for that engine?

they did. Mileage still sucks. But I’m sure a 40% increase in power is nice

Keith at Dirty Deeds makes 12 hole injectors for the 2UZ that offers some relatively promising increases. Going to try some when I take the truck down for timing belt this winter.

cool. But for the purpose mines staying as stock as possible powertrain wise. It does fine, I knew it wouldn’t be a race car going into it.
