What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

My 2016 came stock with a 265 spare underneath, so that's a yes. When the lift and 285's get put on next Saturday, they're going to put a spare 285 under there instead, which they said can be done by simply cutting back the guides that guide the 265 in there. "Plenty of room" they said. haha We'll see...

 

There is plenty of room, but don't let them cut, have them hammer the guides out a little with a deadblow hammer. try that first and as a last resort, cut it

 

Thanks. I'll tell them that!

 

That's what most people did on the 2nd gens.

 

I'm still waiting on mine. WTH?!

 

Do you live near Tacoma, WA?

 

After finally getting the truck out of the shop, I did a few inexpensive mods:

1: LED upgrade inside the cab
2: XACT Contours rear floor liner (waiting on the fronts-hurry up Husky)
3: Tint
4: Vinyl inserts from RRentrop
5: A few decals added to the ride
6: Transferred license plates from my old Taco to this one. FBHO

Next up will be the front XACT front liners from Husky and sill guards from G Tek Fab

 

I washed and waxed mine. Came out just okay, first time ever waxing a car. So no pictures until I get decent at it haha
* think I'm just too impatient, rather be out there getting it dirty

 

that makes two of us!

thank you!

 

Hit up tcBob!

 

Subtle but sweet...

 

I bought a spare; 265/75/16 fits.

 

No lift, tires are Ko2 265/75/16 Rims are 16" Methods.

 

Thanks,

I have had my truck for about a month, and I did get a few contaminants, but not a lot. I noticed that there were a bunch of black dots on the front fenders, almost like over spray, and the clay took that right off.

 

That's good to know. Thank you for the reply.

 

JK, mine came today!

 

Installed a headlight protection film kit. Waiting for some of the small bubbles to dissipate.

 

Got 20% tint on the front two windows. Looks a lot darker than the stock privacy glass. Speaking of which, I find the factory tints to be too light. I might add additional 35% or 40% over the factory tint.

Added the Lund Genesis Tri-fold Tonneau cover. It was $286 shipped from AutoAnything! Noticed that the bed is not entirely square as the corners tapers in by the rear taillights so tonneau corner ends stick out a bit (see picture).

Also did a decal mod for some added horsepower. Seems like I gained 5+HP!!!

 

I got mine off Amazon. The vendor website actually directs people to Amazon. The prius keyfob are the same as the Tacoma and fits like a glove allowing easy access to the hidden key in the fob.

 

Tonneau cover installed.
