GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Not here yet, but it looks like it will be soon.

 

You guys would when I’m selling my damn tent......

 

I did a complete overhaul on my 3rd gen recently. The second gen has the tweeters on the door I believe but there will most certainly be a swap out of your stock speakers that you can get from Crutchfield.

I recommend searching in the Audio Forum for what people have swapped out with their second gens. Or you can call Crutchfield, they have great customer support. Swapping out your speakers is something you can handle yourself if you want to save some money. Prolly around $250.

Next step up would be a 4 channel amp for the speakers. If they are 100 watts rms a 4x100 will run fine with your stock wiring. I went with ********* because they have harnesses that connect to the back of the head unit to connect the amps to your speakers without much effort. Hardest part for the amp install is running power wire which is not that hard. Around $300 for this.

Next step after that would be a 2 channel amp and a sub which IMO is the most awesome thing on the planet. You could just swap out the speakers and get the sub and you'd be worlds above any stock setup. $200 for the amp 200-700 for the sub.

There are full plug and play setups that run $1,500 plus if you install yourself.

I will be at the April 7th meet if you want to swing by that and talk about it.

 

May be worse to the South of Atl, we are quite a bit cooler here. Think the bad stuff will stay South, be ready!!

 

Thanks for detailed response, much appreciated!

I'll probably just do the door speakers for the time being, and then get a sub after I get a couple other mods done. I used to have a 15", and then dual 12" in my old explorer, so I'm well aware of how good deep bass is! I miss it haha.

Will try to pick your brain at the meet if I can make it, hoping to score some Masters tickets that weekend.

 

Cool man.

I scored Masters tickets for Thursday from the lottery this year. So pumped!!

 

Uh I’m not sure. Cashes Valley is probably 20-30 away

Doesn’t mean you still can my come! I’ve got a ground tent or just use a hammock

 

I live in the area. No specific 4x4 trails that I know of in the immediate area. There are plenty of forest service rds (dirt, gravel, eroded, wash board type rds) in the Cohutta Wilderness area north into the Cherokee National Forest in Tn.

 

Shit, will probably have to sleep in my truck, unless someone wants to share...I'm a snuggler..lol

 

I’ve got a one man ground tent, 3 person ground tent and I think Bryan might have another

 

I will get so drunk it won't matter where I sleep

 

I mean I’m down to go. Me and my gf go up there a lot since her grandparents live close by. Just let me know

 

You ever been? I’ve been a couple of times... the beer and pimento cheese sandwich prices can’t be beat! Get to the store early, and then hide the stuff you buy in your car... I waited til the end of the day once and it was a madhouse

 

Hope everyone is okay and no damage!!!!

Some of the Alabama guys got hit hard!!

 

No casualties here except my bags of yard waste got blown over. Didn’t spill, so that’s a win.

 

First time

 

That's the spirit!

I'm sure we will do it end of April, beginning of May perhaps. April is kinda busy I think. But there could be more trips in between. I'll keep everybody updated


No damage here, pretty sure it was mostly south of us and Alabama that got hit bad

 

I've got a truck bed tent, Heathen won't be seeing trails until after show season, so if somebody needs to use it lemme know.

 

Yup details? Is it a 6 speed clean title car? I’d love to have one next to my e36 m3.

 

SMG, clean title, original bumper mount cracked. Have a CSL aftermarket bumper that needs to be fitted and painted. Hood has rain damage, needs paint. Rest of paint looks good. Has upgraded csl brakes. Everything under the hood is good to go and has been maintained just sat in the Georgia sun and got baked. In a garage now collecting dust. Had one shop do all the maintenance and can have them pull the records if someone is serious. Was a fun project but i need to move on.
