What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Killing all the chrome!

 

Thank you for understanding my feels. Haha

 

What options are available? I hate the size, shape and style of the SmartKey Fob.

 

Gave her a bath, picked up a bed mat; finally, and not-so-patiently waited for the rest of the lift parts and tires to come in...

 

Good call on the wheels with the caps! Never knew you could to that with the other wheels

 

Had to cut the caps that came with the wheels and make them fit

 

Anyone notice if I get a miles per gallon difference with an aftermarket air intake

 

I don't believe there are any out yet for the 2016

 

Anyone seeing a difference with replacing K&N air filter? Just wondering

 

Installed the black chrome grille from a trade love it on the MGM

 

Yes stays in high gear longer picked up maybe 1MPG

 

I noticed a slight change in sound when I put in an aFe.

 

Despite some of the negativity about replacement grills, I decided to go ahead and make a post about mine. As you can see from the picture, it's a Charbroil. Yes, I know everyone is going Weber, but I'm not one to follow the pack. The Charbroil just fits with my non-conformist, different drummer attitude. Anyway, she's rocking a dual bottle system with Bayou Classic high output regulator and dual electronic ignition. The mods I plan are an LED bar under the hood for night cooking and a ditch light to illuminate the side burner. I'm really not in love with the stock wheels. Has anybody tried the 5" Waxman rubber caster wheels from Lowes? Any rubbing?

Those mods are in the future, but today I'm going to dip the emblem, handles, and burner knobs. That should be good for at least +5 BTUs.

WHAT??? Oh.....TRUCK grills...Never mind.

 

I purchased one last night simply because they are reusable and easy to maintain.

 

My lift kit was installed Saturday. The shop lost power due to rain event. Getting tires put on today ,as well as u joints greased and checked. They will recheck alignment and calibrate the Yaw.

The shop asked if I want stick on weights. They say they come off sometimes when muddling . Anyone experience this?

 

No one has mentioned the fact the Big Fob has the door key held inside it,so if you were to convert to a smaller Fob what are you going to do with it?? Hang it off a ring, not sure how that would hold up,or even work out...

 

K&N part number for the 2016 3.5 is

$79 33-5017 High Performance Replacement Air Filter with Filter Care Service Kit for 2014-2017 Toyota Tacoma/Tundra/Sequoia V6/V8

33-5017

 

Do you get better heat dispersal with the U-Haul propane versus the Walmart stuff?

 

Using some black RTV to hold down the seams of the factory tonneau cover.

 

I have heard of a place like this that you mention..... far far away!!! Ha

P.S. When she does get a new bag and the wallet she has doesn't quite fit her tastes, she buys a new one... And i can honestly say I have never heard one of her friends say that is so stupid, or its ugly, or the color is wrong, or I liked the old one much better you should just use it.

New to this site and all of the negativity has me shaking my head. I just like to see trucks and see what people are doing to modify and improve and the methods to their madness.
