What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

I'd love to be able to do something like this and get my spare out of the bed. I don't think it'd work well though with the toungue jacks on the camper and the trailer. Idk but it deserves some further investigation

 

I'll admit it's handy to bring the full size along. I run a 265 under the bed on a stock steelie when I'm driving around town, but if I ever get a flat without my full sized tire, I'm limping straight home on the 265 to pick it up. I've previously run something similar to the now defunct BAMF over the bedrail tire carriers and that might be an option for you as well, but say goodbye to your rear window visibility of you go that route.

Jerry doesn't make them anymore unfortunately, AFAIK.

 

Thanks I've resigned myself to losing that visibility already. I'm kinda thinking about fabbing a vertical rack that utilizes the front 2 bed bolts and stabalizes by also connecting to the bed rail in the front. If I work it correctly it may also offer rigidity to the front of the bed. Yes the tire will block the window but it kinda is what it is

 

Nope. Looked at getting one but the cost and wiring it up was a bit much. This one was $8 and took 10min.

 

Bed lights installed

 

Srry but im with casper on this one brrrrr

Its not bad if you have the right clothing and a warm ice house to retreat into if things get nasty. I'm an odd duck and winter is my favorite season. I can't stand the heat...you can always bundle up, but you can only strip down so many layer until the cops are called



On a taco related note, finally took my pup for a ride in the new truck yesterday.

Born and raised in Tacoma Washington. Been hunting in -20 degree weather and I've ran marathons in 100+ degree weather. I've been through the extremes and I've found Texas to be my sweet spot.

 

Today I fixed a dash rattle and then read through the Toyota maintenance manual to see what I needed to do. My trucks got 62k miles on it so it looks like I’ll be doing the spark plugs this week.

 

The -20 I have no problem with at all, I live for that kind of stuff. If you put together the 100+ and running, I'd wave the white flag in a heartbeat.


Here's the pooch going for her first taco ride.
