What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

They all have cameras, but the extra beep beep stuff is in the tech package - Blind Spot Monitoring and Cross-Traffic Detection (which are worth their weight in suspension parts).

 

Seems kinda dumb that they're only in the options package. It's kinda like A/C, shouldn't it just come on everything! You'd think.

 

Just a heads up in advance, the loaner car they give you, suuuuuuucks! Little chevy crus that makes me love my truck even more! But, it's something to drive, while they have my truck for the day.. And, they are really good about returning the truck with a full tank of gas.

 

twice now.. They are right next to the Deer Valley Airport off of 19th ave. They'll also arrange to meet you at your office or somewhere in the middle too. My office is in North Scottsdale, so it's easy enough for me to just bring it to them.

 

Sweetness.....how did you make the cross beams?

 

I don't use any of it cuz I'm old school and never had that stuff 'til we bought the FJ, but I don't use them in that either. I almost kinda hate the b/u camera because if I want to fiddle with the Nav or touchscreen while I'm in reverse, I can't do it. Maybe there's a hack for turning it off besides unplugging it. Hmm.....maybe I'll wire in a switch....

 

You can turn it off in settings.

 

I'll check it out, thanks Ash.

 

I have been driving a 2016 DCSB for my loaner for the past week...it has power windows...the end lol...The windshield wipers are either off/slow/fast, no intermittent or anything. I didn't think they made anything this basic anymore. Hood was supposed to be fixed today and can pick it up when I get off work. Funny thing is the loaner they gave me has the same hood issue mine did.

 

Link to these struts? Any drilling required?

 

The one time I need a loaner from Toyota, they tried putting me in a Prius, but I ended up in a Tundra... Right now my truck is at Airaid doing some final testing for their new Air Intake so the loaner they give out is a real basic, stripped down Chevy Cruz..

 

ha ha, no shit! Only an additional 10 minutes to my drive, so not a big deal, except for this morning, the EB 101 was a shit show.

 

Was thinking of putting some of these bad boys on my taco

 

exactly what I want to do, do you mind sharing what it set you back?

 

I wouldn't put Rangers on your taco if you want it to look and perform very well.

 

HOLY HELL!! I heard about the fatality on the news.. I'm pretty lucky, 13 mile commute at most takes 30 minutes but once the 101 construction is complete, should be a pretty fast drive.

 

Damn that blows! It takes me 10 minutes to go to work usually with all of the stop lights to travel 2.2 miles.

 

This fuse box relay panel was Oringinally in my 2015 taco, I modified it to fit my 2016, next step is the wiring

 

I go next Saturday to have mine looked at.

 

@JerryTaco @0uTkAsT and anyone else in the phx valley

for those in the PHX valley, have you guys taken your truck in to get the ATF level checked? if so, what dealership and did they give you a hard time to actually check it? Outcome? I need to bring mine in, but it's really a hassle to drop it off etc for them to 'not be able to replicate' the problem. I've found my tranny slipping on steep inclines a couple of times, and with the info on here it's making me a bit paranoid
