What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Taco did it's job. Glad to hear you guys are fine.

 

What size tires are on this?

 

Met up with some forum members this morning. Bought a set of off-road wheels from one and sold my SR5 wheels to another.

Minor upgrade.....but I really like the off-road wheels.

 

Test fitting
Glad as always that I got the long bed

 

Got her first true battle scar messing around today.

 

Let me know what they say

 

Time for a new front steel bumper hahaha

 

Also just picked it up from 20,000 mile service
Figured getting it done early was better than getting it done late.
A lot of miles in less than 8 months ( picked it up 3/3/17)

 

Installed my 12 volt solutions plug and play remote start. Took 5 minutes. Works great!

 

Is the 3rd service done at 18k ? I thought I read someone say that. I hit 18K, and I called for a service appointment, and they said it's done at every 5K.
I dunno. I thought the 3rd was the last and final free "service" done at 18k.

 

I spent the afternoon with mine..........shopping and then chilling out over the rail.

 

Service every 5k which includes checking fluids, tire rotation and basic inspections.. but oil change every 10k.

 

Get 2 years of free service including a 10k and 20k oil change. At 5k and 15k you only get fluids topped and tires rotated. Basically 4 free services if you drive 10k a year. Had my 1st oil change at 1 year and 8.5k miles. Was supposed to get a free 3rd service around 14k but only had 2.5k on tires so passed on it. Will get final service, rotation and oil change at around 16k at approx 2 years which will be the final freebie. Its only done every 5k if you drive 10k a year. Otherwise they owe you service every 6 months so don't let them hose you on your 4 free services. After 2 years you get nothing free regardless of mileage.

 

Just asking. If you only drive 4k a year, you only get one free rotation?

 

5,000 - 15,000 - 25,000 they rotate your tires, check air pressure, and lie about checking anything else
10,000 - 20,000 they change your oil, rotate your tires, check air pressure and lie to you about checking anything else
Oh and at 20,000 you get a new cabin air filter

 

You have the right to get your free oil change at 4k if its been a year. And then get your 2nd and last free oil change at 8k if that is your wish. You need to change it once a year period. Would never go past a year even with only 1k miles. Gimme my free oil change.

 

Did you notice how much better these trucks run at 20k vs say 5k miles! I'm at 17k miles and it runs better every day! I drive about 50 mikes a day going to work. When the truck was younger it did shift more on my trip. Now it'll run in 6th gear at 70 all the way! (Except if that Texas wind is blowing really hard!) lol

 

Gotcha. Thanks. I don't drive enough to take advantage of the included service based on mileage alone. The sticker on my windshield from the last dealer serrvice says its due now time wise. I also have a minor issue I want addressed and was waiting till next service. It might take me another couple of months before I hit 15,000. Seemed odd to get service based on time for mainly a tire rotation.

 

Yes it gets better with age
45 miles one way to work for me 90 miles every work day adds up the miles pretty quick

 

My son installed a couple of steaming piles of mulch on it today.
