What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not sure if you're being honest or sarcastic.
So I'll go this route. If you're serious then lucky you!
If you are a Vet returning home then thank you very much for your service!!

That should cover it.

 

Added this guy today

 

I was being honest haha

 

Also got me hood vinyl today...pics to come when installed

 

This is what I did to my 3rd gen today

 

Nothing yet...these just arrived. But, the install will have to wait until next weekend...

 

Well done.

I asked for the same exact thing to be done when I had my truck in for it's 5K service 4 weeks ago.....set it up that way when I scheduled the work.....confirmed it with the guy I handed my keys over to.....waited an hour+ only to find out they didn't do the oil change.....just the 5K service. I wasn't charged for it....just aggravated with the wast of my time. Was not an impressive first encounter with the dealership's service department.


Hoping I'll get back in there soon....

I have zero complaints.

Was hard to beat Amazon's pricing and insanely fast shipping. Ordered them on a Sunday afternoon and they arrive the next Wednesday. Large, heavy box. Well packaged. All materials & installation hardware well labeled and easily understood.

Well done. I have been impressed by these mounts. Rock solid and perfectly located.

Looks good. Somewhat beefier than the stock version, right ?


I just noticed in the pic that you have the Inferno carbon fiber overlays on the door bottle holders, too. Well played. All bases covered.


Personalizing these trucks is fun stuff.

I literally can't pull out of my driveway without being in eyesight of at least two Tacomas. By the time I've made it to the first stoplight I've likely seen two more. They are super popular trucks, yet I feel like mine is my own, as I'm sure each of us likely are, too.

They are sweet in stock form.....even better after we spice them up a little or a lot.

 

I wish we had the tailgate step that the F150's have. I'm 5'6'', and When I put a 2" lift on my truck, me getting in the bed is going to be comic gold unless I get something installed.

 

Love mine ! Covered the logos (wasn't a fan) with skateboard grip tape.

 

They look like a highly functional solution, too.


I like the trays for dual level access to your bed/gear.

Appears that you could still slide a kayak beneath them....maybe I'm wrong.

I've also seen some very shallow black finished diamond toolboxes on Tacomas that looked great. One guy's was very shallow and appeared to have enough room below it for boats & such. Would make a good spot to store tow hitch ball, flashlights, gloves, rubber boots, come-along, snatch strap and other recovery gear.

 

Well spoken good sir...and yes the shifter is bigger and yes there is orange cf on the bottle holders...good eye and thank you for the kind words.

 

I on the other hand like the logo but god damn you did a good job covering them up...looks like they came like that

 

Yup. Straight bolt on. A pair of jack stands & a creeper make easy work of it.


Search Amazon as well as Tyger Auto's ebay store. They are very conspicuously labeled as to which truck they fit.

Don't feel bad. I'm 6'4" and have issues getting into and out of many lifted trucks due to knees that should have been replaced by now according to my surgeon. This Taco continues to be easy for me thus far.....and I'm hesitant to do a lift for that reason.

Looks clean.

Someone posted some diamond cut rubberized no-skid pieces that he fitted in over the four spots on the rail. I may very well go that route sometime, too....as I put my foot right in that location as I'm getting in / out. He bought them from Harbor Freight tools. Was also a clean looking addition to the rails.


I like your darkened badging, too. Dip, paint or other ?

 

Better pic for you

 

Hellsyes.


You, sir....went balls deep with the cf. Gotta love it.


I did the easy & cheap interior bulb swap to LED's. I unlock the truck with the fob and it lights up like crazy. I would imagine that cf would sparkle like it was on fire at that moment.

Removed them, painted with satin black. The pain was adding the 3m adhesive to restick them.

 

These were recently on sale on ebay. Might still be.

 

Christmas came early this year. Borla s-type catback and Ajt key fob

 

Well it took two hours and a 45 min. Drive each way but 5k is done and oil change got done.
10k between oil changes just doesn't set well with me. For the small cost vs the piece of mind it's 5k for me. Once I get my Jowett Billet Oil Cap I'll do my own. Dealership uses Mobil 1 and I prefer Castrol Syntec.
