    Grinning at that.


    It's certainly one of the benefits to my Taco having AT. My last truck was a stick and the wife hasn't kept in practice. She's not been my dd yet......but the option is on the table, at least.





    I did. :headbang: Lately, though, my stereo seems stuck on country and FOX News.......although the new Godsmack album has been enjoyed, too. Cranking it up reminded me that I need to address the door speaker changeout to get much muscle outa this unit. :militarypress: I'm thinking my next mod money will be heading to Crutchfield. I checked their site and see the Kicker CS are outa stock at the moment.




    There is a shop here in town.....owner has been there since 1989, I believe. It's on one of the town's main roads in a busy spot. I'm sure the cost of that property is steep. He's got a classic lifted Yota parked out front....cool looking truck. He did my last truck when it was two weeks old and I drove the truck for 11 years. The day I sold it found the tint looking just as good as it did the month he installed it. He was slightly higher than the other places in town back then.

    So.....new Tacoma arrives.....no real compelling need for tint right away as it was in October. Once we started getting some high 80's & 90's though....had to have that addressed.

    I asked around to see who guys at work were using.....I check in with the other shops for estimates and then went back to see the original guy who did my last truck.

    He took the time to familiarize me with the various types of products out there. I was sold then and there on ceramic tint. He tested my factory rear roll downs and rear glass and determined what % would be needed to match it.

    I went with his recommendations. The front roll downs were $150 and the front windshield was $150. I'm not legal....but I'm not limo-dark, either.

    They are handy little guns. Pocket carry capable with ease (I've been using a DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster).

    Same controls and functionality as all other Glocks. My wife has taken mine over.... All good, as I replaced it with my pocket carry Sig P938 which works great for me...same controls as the 1911 that I often carry.

    Yes, the G43 is a nice gun, just wasn't for me. I ended up selling mine as I was using my G26 far more often, but now I have been using my G30. It is good to have a nice variety.

    Can this spoiler be used with a hard tri-fold tonneau cover or will it interfere with it and keep it from closing and sealing properly?

    They don’t actually make the spoiler, they are a sole sourced distributor by the manufacturer and the manufacturer raised their price significantly to the point that the it would be a hefty loss. Business is business and they had to raise the price accordingly to make a profit, but they reduced their margin of the profit on the spoiler to try and keep the cost down, still be able to cover shipping, and make a profit that is worth their time. They have a slim profit margin on the spoiler to begin with, but are going to make an effort to make the best discount they can without the manufacturer’s assistance. There will other products as well.

    Picked up a heavy duty rivet tool at Harbor Freight yesterday to help with those steel rivets supplied with the Red Line hood struts. Looks like it should do the job. Plenty of leverage. $19.99
    Now if it would just stop raining on my days off!

    Location varies, but based in Edmonton, Alberta.
    Vehicle:
    2016 Black Tacoma Limited
    Tuff Country 3" lift, BFG Baja Champion 285/70/R17, Unknown Nerf Bars, Diamond Back Tonneau, 800W internal cab mounted inverter, VHF radio, We-Boost 4GX, Ram Mount No-Drill Laptop Mount, Zac of All Trades rail mounts (FX and Hi-Lift), Weathertec floor mats, BLACKVUE 590 dash cam, @Calirasiedled Bed Accessory Mount, Sound deadening
    I put it to work. Back to northern BC, working on a project. Luckily, mostly pavement to work, some rural roads. The view from up here is amazing, better when you put a Taco in the way...

    Had that issue on my 2nd gen. Sprayed the hinges with WD-40 and it started working correctly.

    Do you have pictures for the rear Mats for your tacoma? These mats seem almost perfect to cover the necessary rug.
    Thanks already.
