What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Just picked up a 17 ORDC in super white. Let the modding begin. First thing first. Clazzio Seat covers.Love them. I think they turned out great.

 

I bought a 12 sq. ft. Roll off of Amazon.

 

Where did you find those Clazzio seat covers? Did you special order them? Those look awesome!

 

LOL

 

Now that I'd love! My wife's ML350 has the 3.0Ltr turbo diesel and with 455 ft/lb of torque it's amazing! Plus 27.1 MPG on that beast is a great plus!

 

'Murica

 

Nope, heard wrong. Toyota has gone on record more than once stating that they have no plans to bring a diesel to the Tacoma market.

Sorry to rain on your parade

 

That's all fine and dandy, people can speculate all they want. But, due to CARB and various other financial reasons, it doesn't make sense for Toyota to make the move. Further, when Toyota themselves have gone on record on multiple occasions confirming this very thing, pretty sure it's safe to say that it's not gonna happen. At least not within this generation of tacomas. Toyota doesn't just swap engines within the same generation of truck, their history confirms that. "If" this ever were to happen, which is doubtful and has been debated at length on this forum, it wouldn't be until a future generation of Tacoma. It'd certainly be awesome, but not sense in getting your hopes up

 

This one is a Yakima 2 timer. It works pretty good and folds up when not in use.

 

Am I the only one that wants an electric Tacoma with a micro turbine generator??

The EPA murdered the diesel engine and I'd want nothing to do with the mess most call a modern diesel. The diesel had a reputation for reliability due to its simplicity but now they're just a mess of incredibly expensive, failure prone electronic parts and require a dose of pig urine to keep them running. Sorry for my opinion lol

Gave the beast a bath then took it and had the 10K service done and they kindly installed Toyota metal oil filter assembly that I bought and then the sky opened up!

 

I'm not a diesel fan for 1/2 ton pickups... Especially the new diesels... You can drive about 50,000 miles for the cost of a diesel engine upgrade....Plus the increased maintenance costs and difference in fuel...You would have to keep one about 8-10 years to realize a savings. And that's if the truck is still in good shape.

 

What topper is that?

Patently untrue, and a good way to incite a ban riot.

Mention "rear disks" and you're on your own.

 

Diamondback HD.
It's pretty sweet.

 

LOL, he's definitely not wrong

 

But, I mean, if they did put a diesel in it they'd have to switch to rear disks. You'll need the superior stopping power of disks with the heavier block and increased torque. /s

I just picked out my colors, and ordered them.$ 75 off right now. I they arrived 3 days later. Evidently the colors I chose must be popular because they had them in stock. Very happy with them.

 

Hey man looks great. Which mobtown sliders are these? The no-drill bolt ons?
