His 30+ trips to China really should have been a point of far more scrutiny.


He’ll defect to China, taking crucial Minnesota national guard info on M60 tanks and his HS coaching playbook.

We also went to Winslow on our way to the crater.

When I was standing on the corner and a girl pulled up she said “what are you doing? Get in the car.” My wife was not an Eagles fan.

I don't think he had a fracture. My understanding is it was a ligament tear. Still severe, but not as bad as a fracture and tear.

I agree there are unknowns, heal time, rehab, setbacks, pain tolerance, lingering issue. A lot of doubt to overcome.

Speaking of cars, I’m starting to look for a 1968 Shelby GT 500KR convertible, preferably KR but have looked at 500 and GT350. Any reputable places to look besides Mecum?

Both, trips over 8 hrs are a pain and if I’m going to camp an hr away, I need to fill up at least once +/- one day.

Keep in mind that some tank replacement options require you to move the spare from the stock position

I watched the install video. It’s pretty straightforward and is installed next to existing tank. Lots of clips and bolts to remove and reattach with replacing inner fuel sending unit on existing tank. Might be too much for me to DIY.
This is all brought on by the city and state government selectively enforcing the laws and regulations that are in place. These “protesters” are emboldened because they know no one is gonna stop them from illegally blocking streets, vandalizing, trespassing, destroying property, and attacking people.

This has gotten way out of hand because the left in power are allowing these people to do illegal things in the name of “peacefully protesting”. Adding to all this officials using incendiary language to whip up the protesters. It is playing out to be dangerous and deadly, but their TDS is overloading rational thought.

It’s aftermarket. It can only void the warranty for the oem fuel tank and maybe part of the fuel system if something


So I can add the 14 gal aux to my oem and get 35 gallonstotal.

What city are you in, I may order and use who you are to install.

They have a larger replacement primary that’s 29 gallons and an auxiliary that goes on the other side of the drive trains that’s 14. They non-US versions have the auxiliary so there’s space for it and FK Off-road makes these. You can do one or both. The miles to E won’t be right but that’s not a big deal is I have 42 gallons of gas and it’ll still tell me when I’m low.



Does Lexus do the upgrade or someone else. Does it void any part of warranty?

My 700h is only 18 gallons. But I have 2 new fuel tanks on the way that will put me at 42.


You replace the original tank with these? How does that work?

Agree. Its LX or bust for me with the current offering

I have owned Landcruisers in the past and now have a 25 LX600 with the V6.
My thoughts after 8 months..
Gas mileage is an issue since the gas tank is only 21 gallons, so your range is under 300 miles and you are constantly having to fill up. It has power, but it sounds and feels like you are pushing that V6. The 700 has hybrid engine and gets a mile or two better mpg, but you lose @6” height in rear cargo for batteries. I went back and forth on this and am rethinking the space outweighs the mpg.

They need to go back to the V8 and the larger 24.6 gas tank.

No they can't. ICE doesn’t have general police authority. Their powers come from federal immigration law. For a U.S. citizen, they can’t just detain you for “basic law breaking” unless they have a proper federal warrant or are enforcing a crime they’re actually authorized to enforce. Otherwise, they have no lawful basis to hold you.


Look at the guy giving potentially dangerous legal advice on the internet.
It’s idiots like you who think thy know the laws because someone posted it on DU.

Interfering with ICE agents, particularly by obstructing their lawful duties, is a federal crime and can lead to prosecution under laws like 18 U.S.C. § 111, resulting in felony charges for assault, resistance, interfering or impeding federal officers.

What Constitutes Interference?

Physical Obstruction/Assault: Physically blocking, touching, or assaulting an ICE officer is a serious federal offense.
Failure to Comply: Not providing requested identification or failing to follow lawful orders from an ICE officer can also be a federal crime, as stated in the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations (e-CFR).
