    Do they sell those at auto zone or advanced auto parts? I know the AVS they sell at advanced auto, I think. Was thinking about picking up the AVS since they sell them at the store.

    It's a little smaller than the original shifter knob but I like the look of it.

    No real major difference, just a tad bit smoother on bumps. Only drove it once so far so might be a bit soon to tell.

    Added a hula girl and changed the oil for the first time since buying the Taco. The car dealership changed the oil when I bought it. They put the filter on a little tight. This is my first oil change on any Taco and I had no idea that when you pull the drain plug for the oil it COMES OUT with a lot of force and volume. I had oil spraying everywhere and I had to tilt the catch pan to keep most of the oil in the catch pan and on my flat drain pan.

    Are floor mats a mod?
    Welcome to the leaning club!
    With my 700# springs, doesn't lean quite so much, but is way more plush on bumps, and flexes about 2 more inches!
    Enjoy!

    True but a friend gave me some gigantic channel locks the other day and I thought I would never have a use for them because they are giant. I used them today. LOL.

    I got a few things done today. Cleaned the interior and waxed the exterior. Hit 21,000 miles this morning.
