What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

$100 for a patch ?!!!! WOW. PATCH PEOPLE are rich!!!!! geezus

My poverty spec tires cost less...

 

Yup......I'm no die hard collector, plus I have million other things taking my money

 

No kidding! At least you have nice place to live, and not a shitty place like me, worst state of the union, takes all my money, gives me no benefit

 

Well besides traffic, overpriced EVERYTHING, paying shipping for everything.......then yes it's nice here too

 

The whole patch thing is cool. Im hooked. I like looing for them places i go. Its a cool way to keep track of places uve been. That and there are some really cool ones. I actually just ordered 3 an hour ago.
Heres my collection as of now

 

when i WAS a kid in the 1800s, people used to put magnets of places they have gone on their fridges

 

Thats cool too. And those are easier to find. But then they arent in ur truck. Thats usually what takes me on that adventure so its cool to have it there as a reminder kinda. Pluss the other random ones. Idk. I just saw people doing it liked it and sarted my own collection. Even though it wasnt my idea, its my collection of them

 

yeah its very cool

i guess i never thought of the headliner as a place to put anything

since no one sees it (unlike people who put stickers in the back), and i don't want to strain my neck to see it

but definitely a cool art

keep up the good work

 

Yea true no one sees it besides me or people in my truck. Like @Fernando said, Its a great way to spend money u dont have

 

What's the deal with the inter cooler ?

 

For turbo...

Anyone know where I can get oem wheel studs for an 04?

 

Camelback toyota parts has great oem prices

 

Not bad for 22 years old

 

I just hit 165k on the drive into work today

 

That's what I am planning to do. I'm not a big fan of stickers unless they really mean something to me. I'm also not into patches just for patches either, so I want to get patches based on trips I have been on. That way it's always a constant reminder of where I've been, the times I've had, and the company I've enjoyed along the way. I also really dig the achievement patches that @SMKYTXN makes. Already nailed half of them but hope to never get the rollover patch.

I have a turbo charged 3.4.

 

You think patches are bad, you should try challenge coins (Military) they usually go for $20 but can also get to $50 for rare ones.
Mostly we trade them when we go to other bases and need to get stuff done or we give them out as a form of recognition to our junior sailors.

Here is one example of a challenge coin that I always carry in my pocket.
Most, if not all commands have challenge coins made. Usually from the Chief's Mess, but the officers also have some made that are non rank specific.
When I have a chance, I will post pictures of my patch and coin collections.

 

Is anyone planning a run in the next couple weeks?....... Just curious.
