What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Flew up to Columbus Ohio from Florida to pickup my new Tacoma at Toyota West. Local dealers wouldn't work with me and Dean at Toyota West in Columbus was awesome. Flawless transaction and since I had to drive the new taco back to Florida I decided to stop in Pigeon Forge TN. for the weekend and rented a cabin. What a great trip and perfect way to break in my new truck. I'll be starting a North50 build thread so plenty more to come.

 

Damn! That cabin was all yours?!

 

Under a week old, and under 300miles
Put some new TRD pro Wheels w/ BF AT K02s on her. 275/70R17 , all stock for now.

 

275/70R17 all stock and no rub? I thought 265 was the biggest people were going on a stock with no rub. Would be awesome if I could get 275 thats why I'm curious, thanks!

 

My 06 mustang was black with factory red guts. I have a soft spot for porno red hehe

 

I though so too, but I went for it. No rubs no nothing. Perfect fit and smooth sailing.

 

Try http://www.weathertech.com/

They have them to fit with and without flares

Mine fit perfect, love em.

 

why not just get the stock ones form Toyota?

 

Rough country 30" single row light bar below dipped/glossified grill with TRD badge. Switch panel mod installed with 2 blanks for the future. Opt7 LED headlights/fogs. LED interior, console organizer automotive felt lined with lined glove box. King suspension in near future.

 

...Those are a couple of damn good photos!....They look like promotional pics from Toyota......

 

There are several out there that carry them. I got them from Amazon. They were to cheapest. SSR610-40 made by Superspring

 

He also doesn't have mud flaps which, if I remember correctly, is what people have been rubbing up against.

 

Alsome! That's wear I got married and stayed at for our honeymoon.

 

I got mine from TRDParts4U. Perfect, quick install.

 

Awesome trip ... i live 30-min from Toyota West and i often vacation in the Smoky Mountains. We are going to be driving our new Tacoma there soon
... Congrats on your new truck !

 

I bought the WeatherTech flaps as well, they are digital fit and i installed all 4 in about 20-minutes. Install uses existing holes and they fit perfect with my factory flares
... i don't plan on doing much off roading is why i chose these, they are rigid so i wouldn't recommend them if you plan on off roading much as they would likely get broken off

 

How hard was it to remove the stock panel and how did you wire up the switch? Thanks for the help!

 

What's that "Toyota Security" button? Do you have the factory alarm/lo-jack?

 

That is a beautiful area there!! That cabin looks like a mansion to me.

And congrats on the New truck! Sucks you had to go all the way up north for it. Must of been one Hell of a deal to also be worth the plane ride and gas home.

I had to play 2 local'ish dealers against each other.. I called Ocala from the gainesville dealership, they offered a better deal, got to Ocala and then called gainesville back from the Ocala dealership. Then they took me more seriously and i ended up saving 4 grand and getting a lower finance rate back in gainesville on the same truck. Shame what you have to do to get treated right... Also made me aware of how much money i have wasted over the years by not negotiating prices down. If/when i buy another vehicle I'll be even more prepared to hold my ground until i get the deal i think i can get.

Just hard to walk out on a beautiful shiny new truck LoL

 

Love the 'Feel the Bern" sticker..... Well done!
