For my Tacoma, Toyota recommends about 31-32. But I think that's too low, and so does my mechanic, so he goes to 35. But...with all the things going on in the world today, at LEAST get into a Twitter flame war about something more substantive and earth-shattering... (like music groups, Australian hardwoods, lamenting the Bolts losing T-Billy, or how will Pip do at G...go Chahgahs...)
as an AUSSIE i'd like my wood to be left out of this
Australian Buloke has a Janke hardness rating of 5060 lbf.
It's better than Viagra gummies.
Aborigine people make boomerangs out of Buloke.
It all started because dmac, Cat and 'Roo said the Chargers were gonna "boomerang", last to first.
Man, I gotta go now...
To get back on the subject, Aussie Aborigine men used to carve boomerangs to prepare for battle. What do the new and improved Harbo Bolts do to get ready for battle?
Lots of Chargers gear being worn at the SD County Fair today....
This town WILL be Bolt Town once again! (Some day)
My close friend invited my fam to go but had to decline cuz we can’t eat that much anymore. She said that fair was so packed they stopped admitting people around 6:30pm. Hope you had a great time.

We'll see about that. My own experience was that about 50% stayed true... 50% bailed (and haven't come back).
The Padres following, however, has benefitted from the move. Padres jerseys are everywhere.
Jackson Merrill is on fire BTW.
Hope you had fun @the fair. Fair food is the best!
It used to be a family tradition. The kids loved the livestock barns. I loved the bratwurst with onion/peppers.

Got my Merrill jersey last week for Father’s Day. Only jersey I want as of now for this team.

wow, that is so different than my personal experience. I've seen the bailers from my long-time SD "family" (born and raised) who once bled powder and gold and now hate with a pitch forked fury is more like 95%. Almost NONE of my friends like the Chargers post-move. Even my brother still swears to hate the team, and he was "that guy" you see wearing Charger swag 7 days a week. his primary ball cap was a charger cap, he might as well have had bolts painted on his truck he was such a Charger guy.
I keep telling him I'm gonna bring him back home where he belongs. he smiles, just like he's smiled for the last half dozen/whatever its been years, But he no longer immediately blurts out a Charger adapted version of " from my cold dead hand". we are a loving family, we smile when we disagree. But I think I've been getting to him and this might be the year, The Harbaugh Effect could lure him in.
BB calls out 4 Chargers that may lose their starting job to rooks:
- QJ
- Poona
- Fulton
- Spiller
I'd note only one of them were a Charger starter, only 2 were even on the team last year, so ... you go, BoltBeat! I'm still pulling for Q, riding that one into the ditch if I have to lol.

LOL! Yeah, it's a strange road we walk down here is SD. If your circle is 95% fury... my sympathies go out to you.
My 50% stay-true are almost all ex-football team mates. They know football inside-out and will always follow football.
In their minds, they might as well follow a team they've been following since childhood.
Having said that, none of us will buy tickets or any NFL merchandise... there is no feeding the beast.
My 50% pitchfork-and-fire friends are "protect-the-turf" types. It's unfathomable to recognize LA as their own.
Most of this stems from the LA-SD rivalry (that LA doesn't even recognize). It's the "little brother" syndrome.
They can't imagine supporting a team that was stolen away (again... Clippers) from them.
I remind them that every ticket they buy... every jersey they buy... the proceeds go directly to their new-found owner.
The same owner that voted to let the Chargers leave. I ask them, "How could you financially support that guy?"
Any argument pro/con Chargers is a ROI that yields few returns.
If they want to come back... fine. If they never come back... I totally understand. No judgements from me.
I miss when the city was ablaze with Chargers' swag any time they had a decent team.
It's definitely not the same any more.

I have a similar dynamic with my dudes.
imo the worst part of the move was the ending of how I could Charger-fan with my dudes.
