What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

pretty bad isn't it.

Not sure I believe your good stock theory. To me it depends who influenced your childhood, whether it be a parent, neighbor, teacher, etc. Is it harder yes but very possible, I know of many, one being a millionaire.

 

Glad I'm not the only person in our age group who feels like that!

 

yeah first thing I did on my 15 was take the badges off, but there was a thread going of maybe having oem black badges made. so I was waiting as I don't reallllly like the badgless look. but it doesn't look like that's happening so badgeless it is for now

 

took some plastic off

 

@breader3 Looks great! I am going to have to track you down in Vegas to take a look at that in person. Love the ambers too..I plan on installing some in the SR Grill I picked up

 

Can I call him Chief Dad?

I've yet to see the ray 10s in bronze on a silver Tacoma. I think it would look badass.

 

Oh the difference it makes.
I removed the air dam from mine about a week ago and now everyone has been asking if I lifted it lol.

 

For sure! I've Kinda turned into an amber junkie, always trying to find more places too add amber.

 

Brown Dirt Cowboy - I can honestly echo every comment you made regarding Joe and Mobtown
Offroad. My first Mobtown purchase was lockable doors for the cubbies in the Tacos' bed. When
mine arrived, the larger of the two was scratched. So, I pm'd Joe (I am reluctant to bad mouth a
company without giving them an opportunity to make the transaction right). Well, Joe pm'd me
back advising that a replacement door had just been shipped. My second purchase was the
steel tailgate skin. I was the first customer Joe had for the 16's and was so pleased that I
pre-ordered the tailgate cap. Long story short - I gave Joe a lot of grief about the delays
(Joe had logistical issues with one of his suppliers which we early buyers were not aware of)
and subsequent to our orders but before shipment, he offered a Memorial Day special for
new purchases. Well, several of us who had pre-paid for both the skin and cap let Joe know
we were not pleased. Bottom line, Joe made it up to us by engineering two unbelievably
outstanding products.There are many more stories of Joe and Mobtown's exceptional follow-
through with customers. Joe and Mobtown are among - if not the best vendors TW has.

HINT: Do some research on your Taco's tailgate. Toyota Corporate only certifies it to support
its own weight. Many people have used theirs without any problems at all, while there are
several who have suffered bent tailgates and destroyed caps. Take your tailgate apart and
see for yourself. If you use your TACO as a truck, it is only a matter of time before you have
a damaged tailgate.

 

Scooter62 - I run Pennzoil synthetic 0W20 made from Natural Gas, buy it at Wally World and a
case of Toyota filters purchased from Amazon. I take the oil and filter when I have the wife's
Avalon serviced. Only costs $16.95 at the dealership and they provide me the filter box (pre
marked by me) and 5 quart oil container. When the Taco's free service runs out, I will probably
to the same. I'm just getting too old and lazy to crawl under my vehicles any more.

 

@Jdro669 look in your owners manual page #250 it will give you info on using the Rear-diff.
E-Locker. The switch is located in the overhead panel. It should help next time. One other note high lifts and huge tires are not always the best. Depends on the terrain sometimes with no lift and 1or2 tire size larger is all you may need
Hope this helps. Some BFG's or?

 

Hahaha, I call him both, and he always gets mad and says "I'm dad. Not chief."

So I usually joke and say that I'm a LT and ill call him what ever. then I get chief'd and it's all good. HAHA.

 

Thanks man.appreciate the respectful response. Unlike a couple others. I did read about the locker. And when I was in 4 lo.went to neutral. Hit the locker button.it flashed rent three times than went away...so idk wutz up with that. I went to the dealership and they couldn't tell me whu

 

I jumped from the top edge of my bed to the tailgate... more of a heavy step off, and I heard the tail gate make a cracking sound... I only weigh 177.

 

Woke up to this...

Fuuuuuuuuug.

 

That sucks .. what could of caused that?

 

I'm with you.

 

I must have gotten a chip yesterday and when the temperatures dropped last night it must have expanded.
And that's officially one week the windscreen lasted.

 

No pictures, but Saturday I did the rear dif breather mod.
