What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looking now...and ooooooooohhhh. Too bad I am truck rich, but cash poor!

 

Ha....same here. I have heard that some peeps use the online chat box to talk with reps and get the prices down a little on some sites. Looks like yours are at $399 for the six foot bed.

PS...textured looks nice on MGM vs gloss powder coat.

 

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to have to chill on spending for a few weeks. My recent spending has me almost nauseous.

On that note...I'm in need of a cheap, but decent tonneau cover. Does anyone have any experience with this one?

No clue on the cover... But I'll offer my advice on buying cheap. I'm poor... Too poor to buy cheap. Whatever you buy... Buy the best of it and buy it once.

Good luck

 

Any one have a solution for this? Can the metal piece be unscrewed or removed without damaging the cover?

 

Thank you!

 

has anyone experience their screen brightening up and then dim itself while driving? is there a way to fix this?

 

With auto headlights, the screen has differing degrees of brightness and dimness depending on time of day. If it's dark enough for the headlights to come on, the screen dims so as not to make it overly bright in the car. My wife's Prius does it too, so it's not unique to the Tacoma.

 

Does it happen when you go under an overpass?

 

Sometimes, depending on the amount of ambient light that surrounds the vehicle that reaches the light sensor on the dash.

 

Damn Hercules, if that happened to me I would drill it out and use a rivet in with a washer

 

Not quite sure. when i notice it i trip out thinking what it could be and lose track of where i'm at haha

thanks thought something was wrong with my screen

 

Front window tint today and a TW sticker

 

I got a new TRD air filter for Xmas so I have a K&N with 500 miles for sale for $20 plus shipping if any body is interested. Put on my weathertecs mud flaps today. 15 minutes. Fit perfectly add some pics tomorrow after I put on my black reflective tailgate letters and my Coverking neoprenes front and back. And that is it. The bank account is closed for repairs. Loving the Blue. It's so far been a great truck. Got it tricked how I want it. Now going to enjoy the heated seats in the cold New England winter. My last!! Moving to San Diego next September.

 

San Diego... oh man, I wish my company had an office out there. I would beg for a transfer until I drove everyone crazy and they had no choice but to send me. Congrats to you and what a lifestyle change that will be !

 

I'll take the K&N.

 

I debadged the truck today. I removed everything. Looks way better now. IMHO.

 

Thanks. Can't wait formerly a 81170 here. Malmstrom AFB and Anderson AFB

 

Nope. It also had the tacoma and the SR5 badges on each side.

 

Thanks for your service. I was at Anderson 1999-01, how about you ?
