Hey there trdgrl-
I'm over on the big island...use to go to honolulu often, but with the rise in airfare and closing of Aloha, I only make it up there like every three months.

raycie · 05-26-2008, 01:38 AM

I'm on the rock... Nice choice on your second vehicle.. not bad on your first either..

TRDGRL · 05-26-2008, 01:44 AM

What part of the island are you from ?

raycie · 05-26-2008, 01:47 AM

Born and Raised Mililani / Waialua..

Highschool - Town.

Live Leeward..

And you?

TRDGRL · 05-26-2008, 01:50 AM

Born and raised in Wahiawa and now my home is in Nuuanu.....

raycie · 05-26-2008, 01:52 AM

Your pics looks like Aloha tower area..

If you want to start out your mods, check out the group AFE filter but in the 2nd. gen Tacoma forum.. I'm in on it..

raycie · 05-26-2008, 01:54 AM

Born and raied Wahiawa huh? I guess you can say I was "born" in Wahiawa as well..

Looks as though Wahiawa girl makes good.. Excellent job..

pretty sure you don't need the 92 octane on this Tacoma.. My old '99 only drank 89 the whole time I had her.. even costco is 3.91 for the regular..

TRDGRL · 05-26-2008, 02:27 AM

Today was my 1st fill up and I didn't know what I was suppose to use.....

Okay.....I'll use 89 next time.....Thanks.

roxspin72 · 05-26-2008, 05:17 AM

I Was raised in Makiki and Kalihi area...

TRDGRL · 05-27-2008, 04:39 PM

Hey.....Guys

I was wondering which garages in town have you driven your truck into and the height was a problem? Like for instance.....Ward Center.....Ward Warehouse.....etc.

raycie · 05-27-2008, 05:29 PM

come to think of it, with this new truck the only one I have gone into was Kaiser (Moanalua), and Valet at the now Hilton Prince Kuhio (mac 24/7 restaurant) I used to take my '99 all over.. Ward Center should be fine.. I don't like Ward Warehouse (big dip at the start).. Your antenna will hit and make a whole bunch of nose, but roof should be fine. The problem I can think of with most garages would be the limited space to back up.. I have the Long Bed..

TRDGRL · 05-27-2008, 05:32 PM

Thanks for the info. I have the long bed too and thats what I'm afraid of when I go into a garage and have to back it up with little space.....

raycie · 05-27-2008, 11:06 PM

I have the back-up sensors, and that helps a lot.. Was thinking of getting the rear camera, but would rather get the Scangauge II first..

I have the ECHO MASTER from Toyota and planning on getting a wireless camera from Walmart.....

raycie · 05-28-2008, 10:22 AM

Let me know how that goes for you... I was thinking of getting the camera from a local stereo shop (the camera is part of the rear view mirror) but then again I think it was close to $400..

TRDGRL · 05-28-2008, 09:19 PM

The wireless camera from Walmart is around $115. I didn't get it yet as I need to get one of my car friends to install it for me.....

The ECHO MASTER works great!!!
