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

Its for real in there, man.

 

good idea i was so frustrated i didnt even think of that i got pissed and didnt even take off rear flaps. idk may just leave them on there. i did think of taping off the areas covered by the flaps and plasti coating them black. it would blend with the edge guards they put on the front of bed i njust dont know about the rears yet

 

youve gotta love that color. bought my wife a 2014 rav that color i wasn't sure at first but really like it now

 

Toyota has new fancy wheel alignment lasers at the dealer when you go in for basic service.

I failed and returned for a free alignment.

How do those numbers look to y'all?

Didn't notice anything before, all tires worn identical.

 

I know guys I use it all the time, thats why I didnt argue with anyone. There are times however when it is unnecessary for a select few. For example when I go back home to the ranch, Im literally the only one on the property, there are no other vehicles to factor in. Im also surrounded by cattle and small children, So I could probably walk backwards faster than my truck is going. There are also about 5-6 gates I have to open in a half mile stretch. So I’m going about 2 mph and getting in and out of the truck every 3-5 minutes. And when I’m working on the ranch or my truck I love to leave the door open and have the radio playing but the damn door always buzzes. Yes I wear my seatbelt and it is important, but there are times in my life where it is useless and a pain in the ass. Thats the only reason I took out the buzzer. Im sure a few of my fellow outdoorsmen can relate. Everyone has different circumstances, not everyone drives 6 lane city traffic everyday

 

That tech did a shitty job. Couldn't atleast get your numbers to match up on both sides.

 

I find that most dealership tech will only adjust to "green". Better off going somewhere else where they do tires and alignment.

 

Just installed some new wiper blades. I usually got rainx but they didn't have them so went w/ Bosch icons which are similar. Any body try these? Thoughts?

 

Those are the ones I use. Work fine in my opinion but everyone has their own opinion, so... take it for what it's worth.

 

I always use Toyota wipers and have great results. I never tried any other a brand.

 

Rainx ones worked great. I use the rainx spray & water beads up on window. Works great! I usually change them every spring.

 

Added some bed rail brackets with Amber pods!

 

Get a new windshield every few years. Makes the wipers work so much better.

 

Thanks, I'll check 'Em out.

 

Thanks, I am running 265/70-17's. I have 5100's in the front set at zero with OME 885 springs and Wheelers 3 spring AAL in the back. that about leveled it out. On my bench I have a new set of SPC upper control arms, and 1/2" spacers to bring me around 3"+ in the front and I will then add my overload spring back to the rear to bring it level again.

Yes I am fond of this color for sure. has a different look throughout the day with lighting. Dark to light.

Be Safe..

Not a bad idea... What is your primary purpose? bedlights, reverse, tailgaters, trailers, etc?

 

Would have a part # for these please?

 

I understand, but disabling a safety device is never a good idea. If someone drives your truck, has an accident where they aren't wearing a seatbelt and is injured, you are on the hook for everything. If the insurance company finds the buzzer has been disabled they will hang you out to dry. If you do it, fine, but don't advertise it.

 

Right???
