Canadian 3rd Gen Thread

I thought that as well, but it doesn't look like one when your up close.

 

Looks good. It sets it apart but isn't in your face about it.

Most matte finishes on newer vehicles are wraps. Its not that its cheaper (cause a good wrap isn't hugely cheaper), but its not permanent, and the added scratch protection doesn't hurt!

 

Yep

 

Yup

 

MT MB....noice!

 

Happy 150 bro's. Let's celebrate!

 

So spent the canada day long weekend out at ghost lake falls bc. Such a great weekend Here is a pic of my truck headed out. Then we finished it off by driving right out to likely! Oh and also i have become full time british columbian!

 

For those interested, I finally found at my local Walmart, last week.

 

Canada! Fuckin' eh!

 

What deflector is that?

 

There are some wraps that's are really close to looking like they are paint, of course it mostly depends on who did the wrap and how good they are with seams and creases. We did a full audio system and 9500ci on this F430 and really untill you open the door or look really really hard around some edges it looks painted

 

OEM Toyota!

 

Pretty sure that's the Toyota one in Canada.

 

If anyone is interested, I have a White TRD Pro, automatic tranmission Tacoma that will be here in Edmonton in September that is available.

 

Got hit and run while I was parked at work. $6500 in repairs.
I wanted something to tow better so I traded it in for a Colorado Duramax diesel.
The 2017 TRD Off Road Double Cab is for sale at Island GM if anybody's interested.

 

Damn that sucks about the hit and run

 

I just got back from my Cape Breton road trip, and the people of Cheticamp sure do love their 3rd Gens.
Has anyone made that trip (Ontario-Cape Breton) in their 3rd gen towing a travel trailer? I want to know how it did on the Hwy's and the Cabot Trail.
Mine did ok loaded up with 2 adults, 2 teenagers and gear. Ontario to Quebec City I averaged 9.3ish L/100km, but once I went 120km/h + it was in the 11's.

 

You have no idea how bad it hurts until it happen to you.

9.3/100km is very good, I was getting 11.5/100km on 80% highway at 90km/h and city driving.
When I towed my 4000lb boat, I was getting 27l/100km, mind you I'm on Vancouver Island so there are some hills

 

9.3 is quite common for me...just did trip down to Kentucky for a few days. Mind you was just wife and I and duffle bag. I do 600kms round trip every weekend and 9.x is the usual, but is 90% highway.

One day, gonna try for 1000kms in a tank. I think it's very doable.

 

Well Sunday the fiancé and my self went for a little adventure. It wasn't anything too crazy as I'm still running the stock tires but wanted to get out and see how well it would perform on an easy trail. As the site listed it's more of a sight seeing place and well was not disappointed! There were some pretty steep hills that according to the tilt meter in the truck were close to 20 degrees, and a lot of loose rock with a couple river crossings, one of which a E-series van with A/T tires had gotten stuck and the little taco pulled it out with ease, the group in the van were very impressed with how the Tacoma did haha.

That's the link to the trail I went too. I would recommend this to any one in southern Alberta who wants to have a good first experience with some light off roading, but of course bring a recovery strap just in case.
