What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Haha I love it! Thanks

 

Put on my mcneil 3 "
Flares , wondering tho... Best type
/looking bumper to go with a flared front end
More trailing use then pre running. And suggestions

 

Greased up my drive shaft

 

Dropped off my 2015 with 7500 miles at the dealership collision center to have the driver side front and rear doors replaced after someone ran into them trying to park next to me.

I cried a little... Then I cried a little more when Enterprise came to drop off my rental car for the next 7+ days... A Ford Focus!?!?!?

 

You find the scumbag who did it?
And i woulda tried to argue for a better rental lol... atleast it gets good milage though

 

I rented the hatchback focus for a drive from SC to VA. It's not too bad once you get used to it. DEFINITELY lower than I'm used to now though.

I have mine a wash!



Used some tire shine to try and spruce it up a little.

 

Done changing the rear differential fluid and replacing the windshield wipers.

 

I did a serious upgrade to my jumper cables. Out with the POS old ones, and in with the high-quality new ones.

 

Yeah... Luckily! I came walking up and the police officer was already there with the driver and the owner of the other car she clipped pulling in.

Hopefully it'll only be a week in the Focus... That 33 mpgs is about the only thing I like about the rental so far!

 

Crom do you have a link on those jumper cables???

 

Sure. Polar Wire Products, Made in USA They were the best quality I could find, shipped fast too from Anchorage, AK.

 

#EAF Looks good!

 

That's awesome! Reminds of my friend who put in a winch behind the front factory bumper cover.

I'm really digging those lights! Nice find!

 

Jeeez $200? 2 gauge? Lord Almighty...

Must be solid Copper for that price!

 

I have that too. Dual battery, CTEK DC-DC charger / isolator, solar, etc. I'm not sure how much I have into my electrical upgrades, probably a little over $1K. It doesn't have to get that expensive, you can do it for cheaper, with cheaper components.

Quality costs money. The jumper cables are 13.5 lbs of copper, made in the USA, not Chinese garbage. And they will likely be the last jumper cables I ever buy. I could probably jump start big rigs, fire trucks, etc. with those.

 

Most booster cables on the market are CCA (copper clad aluminum), which substantially reduces cost. And the truth is, they will work just fine. It was somewhat difficult to find all copper booster cables. It was within the professional grade that I had to search. This was one of those areas of concern that during a real emergency, when I reach for the cables, I want to know I had the best I could buy at the time.

 

Did you install the a pillar bracket?

 

Yes sir I did

 

Not solid but....

....from the website: "Considerably more copper than standard auto jumper cables".

 

Generic marketing lingo. If rather have a real figure if I was going to spend that much money. Hopefully they are good to go!
