What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

that all blacked out looks TITS....i can hear "night rider" music

 

For that he needs the LED light strip to put in the skewp.

Which would look sick as hell.

 

It's likely stuck to the oil pan.

 

Truck got new TRD Pro wheels and KO2s today! Digging the look.

 

Personally knowing a couple of very good service techs, one at a GM and one at a Subaru dealership they both tell me the same thing. Entry level techs always do the oil changes, that and gophering are their first duties on their way to becoming an experienced service technician. Teaching them how to walk before teaching them how to run is how they weed out the good from the bad. Dealerships don't want to spend money training those with less than promising potential and understandably so.
The problem in most dealerships is time spent doing a particular task. Customer charges are based on the estimated time it takes to do the job. Fast isn't always better but time is money, it's all about their bottom line.
So one shouldn't be surprised if the lowly guy/gal that does the oil changes misses something. He or she is a beginner usually racing against the clock to prove his/her worth. I once had one of these guys forget to put the fill cover back on. 1000 miles later I discovered the mistake, I was to put it politely, pissed. Fortunately it was 1k of on paved road driving and no apparent damage was done. I immediately did an oil change and filter and now check their work upon completion. Aside from the free changes I do my own and at 5k intervals even between the freebies. It also gives you the opportunity to see what else may be going on underneath your ride.

The girl is a dit dirty.....and I like them that way !

 

I know...I need so much more, but convincing my wife is an entirely different story. lol

 

Full ceramic tint on it. 20 on the sides, 50 on the windshield. Love it

 

No, sorry- it’s not the holy grail. I was just joking about that HP and mileage part, its a mod for improving offroad clearance by letting you better avoid exhast system damage when going over large rocks, ledges or crossing deep ruts.

 

Beautiful truck like mine

 

Make it a red LED and people will get out of your way!

 

Thank you for the info

 

I took my truck today at the Toyota service department to have it check for the TBS0062-18 but the service advisor told me he didn’t know nothing about it and I told him what was going on and I researched on the web and I found the TBS but he still told me the same thing and he made me make an appointment and I need to leave the truck for the all day the figure why the truck is doing that, I think he don’t know or he’s not informed about that recall, I’m really disappointed that a Toyota service advisor don’t know that

 

That bumper guard is sweet! Do they make one with hoops that protect the grill and lights?

 

I personally have never had very good luck with service advisors Had similar issues when I first got mine. Asked to talk to service manager and he did everything he could to help me out. Now I always ask for manager and always great service.

 

I think you can actually get a kit to do this. I looked into it when I had my Crown Vic.

Edit: found one on Ebay.
