What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I test drove one but ended up with the Taco, hard choice. Runner looks pretty sweet with some wheels and a little lift on them I'd have both if I could afford it!

 

Finally got my bilsteins installed at .85. On the way home my vehicle stability light came on?!?!?! This happen to anyone?

 

... ^^^ ... Very classy looking truck ... nice photo too ...

 

I just got back from taking mine on a couple thousand mile road trip loop through the southwest, and I gotta say, I love the truck even more now. Had no issues and was solid as a rock.

It was funny, when I was staying in Durango CO, that place had to be the 3rd gen Taco capital of the world. They were EVERYWHERE. I saw more there per day than I do here in San Diego where it's a sea of Tacomas everywhere. haha

 

It happened to me once. Shop didn't torque wheel bolts enough. Don't rule out though, vehicle re-alignment, if it does it when you're braking.

 

Installed some hood struts

 

You should PM me a pic of that. I want to go show him. What state?

 

Projector retrofit, and BHLM. I started a build thread in the Lighting sub forum

 

Is that Canadian?

 

CCG grille went on this morning.



I also have it a little party trick for after the sun goes down.

 

Nope, I'm in Iowa! And Cavedog, we have the same truck! Is yours manual as well?

 

No, I was told that you couldn't get them (an Off Road with a manual) in the states for emissions reasons. Now I'm kinda pissed! I wasn't dead set on either, but wanted the option and to at least drive one before I made my decision, but I'm kind of (depending on the day) wishing that I would have gotten a manual because I dislike the way the auto shifts, but it's settling down the more I drive it.

 

How many curbs did you hit on the way home?

 

Mine is the TRD, not the OffRoad. I've also heard that the ACT button on the dash above the shifter, makes the Automatics more fun to drive

 

ECT and all it does is raise the shift points and lock the torque converter for towing. I use that occasionally but the more I drive it, the more the Adaptive Learning feature seems to be working. I'm just not privy to something that wants to try and "think" for me. I've got a wife for that shit!

 

I just received my maglight clamp mounts in the mail. I'll try to get them installed for my 3 cell D LED that I got at Home Depot for $11~. They are phasing out these lights for the new ones so they had a huge discount. It was marked down from $37 I think. Something to do this weekend I guess, but I think I'll switch out these screws for some good sheet metal screws.

 

Do you mean TRD sport, the off-road is also a TRD

 

Nope I also have Bilsteins with ome 885 springs, hasn't triggered any anamolies

 

Yes
