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

I have several friends who are photographers. I know what I'm asking for for my b-day...

 

Thanks for the come back. I post process 99% of my photos in a very quick manner. I love photography, and have been getting by for a decade with just bridge cameras. I can't wait to step up to a nice mirrorless camera with interchangeable lenses and larger sensor.

 

I love it too. In fact I got my degree in advertising photography and succefully worked in the field for many years. But, I realized I really like vehicles more so I became a corporate pilot and bought a Tacoma. I still shoot on the side. All is well now.

 

My 285/75r16 KO2s came in yesterday... Had the dealer mount and balance this morning for $60!

$772 mounted and balanced!!! Hard deal to beat!!!

Looks much better than the 265s! We'll see where the trimming will be needed. But so far, I haven't scrubbed anything yet.

 

I would say you've made some great choices!

 

Looks great. You need armor

The 80s called, they want their keyboard back

 

I took it on its first duck hunt.

 

Every time I think I've talked myself out of spending the money on a set of TRD beadlocks I see a picture like this... Looks good sir.

 

Put on some kumho mts, and took off mudflaps

 

I'm so considering the not mud flap mod....

Just don't want the paint chips.

Very tempting though.

 

Hand washed and detailed, replaced the wipers and bought all the crap needed for an oil change tomorrow. Up until now it's always been straight Dino oil, the previous owner maintained at the dealer every 5k or 4 months. I bought a Toyota filter and am going to use Quaker State "Ultimate Durability" full synthetic 5w30.

 

Aero Turbine 2525XL muffler.

This muffler has the built-in resonator, so not as loud as the smaller, un-resonated unit. This muffler is about 25.5" long and 5.5" in diameter, much smaller than the stock unit.

Very happy with the sound, nice rumble at low speed and then very mild when cruising on the highway.

 

Here's an alternative, I use them and I am very happy:

Dooo it. I did it. And i havent looked back, you might have a vibration line under neath however.

 

You can also run the Weathertechs I did and it shave a bunch of inches. More clearance and still some protection from chips.

 

That's the first mod I did. Unless you drive on gravel all the time, I wouldn't worry about it. You could always ask the dealer to put on the rock chip guard that's on the bottom of your doors, on the lower section of the bedside. I think I'll do that now.

 

Piled up the miles today! 173 altogether. We went out to the farm to check to see if anyone was hunting without permission. I saw no signs of poachers and 11 nice sized deer and about 100 wild turkey. I should have made a trip to the casino today! When I backed into the driveway just a few minutes ago, I looked down to check mileage. 77,777 on the money!

 

Weathertech front flaps. Considerably shorter than stock. I like the look and design. Easy peasy install of 15 mins for a set of 4.
