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

The tonneau cover has a built in gutter that catches any water that makes it through the rubber/weatherproofing and prevents the inside of the box getting wet. So the tubes go from the end of the gutter, through the box, then drains to the ground. You cant see it in the picture but there are drilled holes in the box and the tubes go through them.

Its vital that excess water gets drained as it expands and can damage when it freezes. Being in Canada thats a very common occurance

 

Not sure yet. Haven't washed it since putting it on. Though I have to do auto washes as I don't have my own driveway to wash in.

 

Sorry for the delayed response. They were right at $1300 installed.

 

Sitting at the stealership. These guys are way out of whack. They thought I still had my 07 taco. I've had the newer one here a few times for free oil too.

 

Ours asks me when we are going to bring in my wife's old Highlander which we traded in to them for her current car, or my old 4Runner which was totaled by a drunk driver for service. Tell them every time that they aren't ours anymore.

 

You'd think for the amount of money they make, they'd have updated info. I didn't buy the second truck from them cuz they're tight asses. I saved $1200 and got a free bed divider( the good one ) for driving 40 miles.

 

I had a buddy come stay this weekend and he brought his 2010 Ford Raptor with the 5.4L. He has an intake and has it tunes very aggressive. Yeah, I walked him with my blown Tacoma. We had some fun. I still like the looks of the Raptors over the Tacoma. Also, his seats are amazingly comfy.

 

You also found my florida pride obnoxious. So...

 

I hear what you're saying, but your point is no longer valid. My Tacoma was built in Texas from parts manufactured and supplied from all over the world. Same goes for ALL other car manufacturers. Ford, GM, Chrysler, etc. all have foreign parts in there somewhere.

Flying a flag, regardless of WHERE is attached, represents pride in the flag and country/state/or whatever the flag stands for.

If anything, the flag flying behind a Tacoma is a good thing because American workers in Texas built it.

EDIT:

SEMPER DING-DANG!

 

Tent is one by James Baroud. Had a chance to try it out this past weekend and will be upgrading the tent to preform much better over the next several months. For a RTT I think the design is better than most, but only time will tell.

 

If Toyota made the raptor, I'd buy it

 

Got a link for it? Also, what did you not like about the tent?

 

How are you fastening the rods down?

 

added dome decals that any1 with a subwoofer should appriciate

 

Few things done this week. Sliders and softtopper

 

Did a bunch of stuff this weekend on the truck.
First I built a antenna mount for the 2ft Firestick I have to mount it on the CaliRaised Ditch Light Bracket. Holds really well and sturdy.

Then changed where my CB is mounted and put it in the center console and wired it up. Need to run the Coax and get a right angle coax connector for it to finish it out.

Then went and installed the 30" 4D Lightbar behind the grill, waiting on the wiring harness for it to finish it out. Need to figure something out with the license plate...

Then painted the center console flat black to try and get rid of the silver that is in there. Still need to do the areas around the vents and a couple other places.
Also, mocked up the Iggy switch panel and the three OTRATTW Switches I have. Going to wait until I get in the Heretic Lightbar for the roof to actually wiring them all up and everything.

Ran out of time to do the Rear diff breather mod, but I have all the parts for it and may do that this week.

 

Please tell me you don't have that much Taco lean

 

Look what came in today. Buh bye chrome.

 

Made my leaf spring recall appointment

 

I need to do this so bad
