Canadian 3rd Gen Thread

Sorry about the picture but the truck is pretty dirty. I was busy at work so could find out the manufacturer but will Monday. I think they sell for around $120.

 

How dare you post pics of a dirty truck.

 

Busy pushing snow so no time to wash it.

 

Oh well then, need say no more...that's some fun shit right there...carry on sir!

 

If your in Canada and are installing a Pro grill call Josh at Cochrane Toyota. He gave me a great deal on the garnish need and has them in stock. No point buying in the US, great pricing.

I'm in no way affiliated with Cochrane Toyota.

 

Agreed! Cochrane Toyota has been great to deal with! Josh was great to deal with when I got my Grill, Tail Lights and Tonneau cover! (Also where I got my Tacoma because of their reputation... and conveniently also because I live in cochrane LOL) it’s incredibly hard to drive past there everyday and not buy something haha

 

Most dealerships are great about selling you stuff. It's getting warranty work out of them that's a true test.

 

True but that could be said for most retail stores. It’s the ‘experience’ you get from them, and the passion Josh has for Tacoma’s and off-roading. He’s helped me with any questions I have, even if I’m not buying anything from them at the time, it’s just going that extra mile they go to ensure you get a great experience when you are there. (Their parts truck is a supercharged 2nd Gen haha)

 

I wanted the Grille and they had the best price in the area, but I ended up buying the Chinese one for 1/3 the price instead online. For some stuff I'm happy to get OEM, but this was hard to justify with such a price gap.

 

How did you manage to get the tonneau cover? I am having a hell of a time getting a dealer to sell me one for my short bed. They keep referring me to aftermarket which I don't want.

 

Acton here.

 

Oh nice! What colour do you have? I may see you around as I'm in Acton frequently

 

MGM. I usually see another MGM on Steeles between Winston and Trafalgar. It was this guys truck that got sold me on mine after thinking about it for many, many, months.

had another 3rd gen follow me last Saturday and pulled into the Acton Shoppers Drug Mart.

 

Oh nice. I like the MGM. Ya I've seen a couple of Tacoma's around. There is a Inferno in Acton as well. I'm one of 3 BBP's in Georgetown. Those 2 have the sport, I got the limited

 

I ended up going wth the extang tri-fold 2.0, at first I wanted the OEM one as well, but I have had no regrets wth this one (I actually like how it sits on top of the bed which gives you that little bit more room vs the OEM one (my stackable tool storage fits perfectly with it for when I go to dealerships for installs)

 

Are you aware that the piece closet to the cab does not fold up on the Toyota cover? Many people don't like it, because of this. You don't have full use of your bed (e.g. to carry a motorcycle, large items etc.). Most aftermarket tonneau covers allow you to fold the last section up against the back window, giving you full bed access.

Some aftermarket covers are more low profile than others.

 

I picked up the exact same one in Vancouver. Just finished putting the 3M stoneguard on it and a Bakflip MX4. Pro grill is on backorder unfortunately. What size/type tires are those?

 

Yes. It was the Inferno which was behind me.

I have seen these and I do like them. Got a lead on a Tri-Fold Tonneau 44905 by Extang 5'ft but its for the 2nd Gen. Seller says it is only a fraction shorter in length.

Yep.

 

You can buy it on line in Canada. Pricey. Not sure if price includes shipping. I am guessing it does not include new bed rails and you would have to cut your existing bed rails.
