What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah but you can’t do anything to it unless you want to store all the parts you remove or lose everything you buy for it in the 3 years you have it. No equity. I get the lower payments but in 5 or 6 years you’d have it all paid off and no payment at all. Huge benefit. However, I also understand if someone always likes change I guess and doesn’t mind having a car payment constantly. To each their own. I was just curious because I don’t come from a family that leases but I know a lot of people do it

 

YEah probly buy now think of it thanks for advice

 

I had a 2014 leased Tacoma that I did a few things to, plastidipped rims, bigger tires, spacer lift, tint, led’s, etc. Nothing too extensive. When I went in for my 20,000 mile service, they asked me if I wanted to trade it in for a 2016- as it was and gave me $2500 more than what I owed. Note stayed the same $375/month. From what I was told, as long as your truck is still worth what is owed (or more) you can do some mods. And you can trade it in early with no penalties if you get another Toyota.

Here is my leased 2016. I’ve added a few things. Will probably buy it at the end.

 

Oh dang. Well hopefully after these three years you can buy it and make the same payment or less buying it or another one.

 

what you think I could get for some gen 2s then?

 

People keep vehicles 5 or 6 years? I had 5 vehicles last year. Lol

 

Tires/wheels. Fender flares and fog lights !! Been a busy day
265/70/17 Goodyear trailrunner AT.
FN Pro 17x8
Lund OEM style fender flares
OEM fog light kit with yellow lenses

 

Could you show a few pics of the tread pattern? Thanks!

 

Put my first DVD in. Quality is pretty good and my little 8” sub and speakers throw a pretty good phantom center speaker when you dial it in

 

Still a work on progress... what do you guys think?

 

Wow. Haha. I’ve had my Celica for 14 years!



I’m currently trying to decide if I want to keep it how it is with the chrome look or change up some things and do some black. Something like this...



I love my car even 14 years later and 125k miles!

 

Waiting on some items for the taco to come in so paid a little attention to my very first truck. I can honestly say this one is done.

 

Both look nice. Don't see much chrome except wheels?

 

What wheels are these?

 

You got it.

 

Moto metal MO971
16x8, zero offset.

 

Wheels, both Headlights and Taillights, and emblems

 

These lights rock!
They are brighter than my hi-beams and much better clarity/contrast when lighting things up since they are amber. When I installed mine it was easier for me to open up the plastic covers in the front wheel wells to get access to the fog lights. It’s a brainless install. Wires are plug n play to stock.

 

Mine was made in Tijuana Mexico.

A guy I know at work got one off eBay a few weeks ago. He opened up his hood for me to take a look at the innards of the grille. Same thing as my OEM Pro grille. Makes me think Toyota buys from the same Chinese company.....
