    Nice! No way I'd miss your Taco following me, the wifey thought it was a little strange that I was staring in the rear view trying to ID your truck but what can I say. My DD rig is nothing like yours but I couldn't miss you guys behind me. Mine was the white 15' following a stock 3rd gen. We were attempting (poorly) to go from Gardnerville back over towards powerline or backside of heavenly but there's locked gates everywhere so no go. FWIW, my buddies and I have 2 decently built Tacos, one kinda respectable T4R (he followed us over slick rock without too much complaining) and one really motivated stock 4 Cyl driver and we spend a lot of time up in Tahoe. Next time I see you in the rear view I'll stop and offer you a cold one. :cheers:

    I run some lights for the rtt off the stock inverter. I forgot to turn my key off last camping trip for 12 hours or so, then ran the lights again with key on next night. Started right up Sunday morning :thumbsup:




    Also just finished some Wednesday maintenance. Trans and xfer case fluid swapped. Man do I hate pulling skids :angrygirl:

    ...too much shit to list.
    I was curious who's rig it was. The black T4R behind me was homie from socal. We just did a little fun run up the trails around Genoa peak.
    I don't think there's any off-road way to get down to the valley from Tahoe except over on Spooner you can take NF-039 to Carson. None that I have found anyway.
    Definitely holler if you're around. Beers are always cold.

    I'm not sure if it's the same, but I know for my group 31 theres a version with a second set of threaded terminal posts, which I find is nice to have.

    The second set of posts is on the Marine series (identified by the "m" at the end of the part number). I got one of those for my trailer so I'd be able to connect smaller gauge wires easily.

    Jeez, they changed their website a lot since I was last digging in.

    Bottom line, it is not clear unless perhaps you dig deep into comparing specs. Most info they have on the Elite is just generic marketing jibber jabber.

    Anyone have an idea if all 2nd gen TRDs were standard with keyless entry? I bought my truck used and it didn’t have one but I recently ordered a remote to program. Is there any signs I can look for to confirm it has it? 2007 TRD off-road

    this must be the non-marine version? mine has another set of posts. also, mine is more rectangular and less square, der, shorter and wider, but that may just be the way your pic looks. both are group 35.
