1999 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road http://www.ksl.com/auto/listing/5103835

 

do you just look up tacos on your free time? if so find me a rusted out double cab i can get for cheap..

 

I have a presaved search, takes 3 seconds.

 

This would be an especially rare occurrence considering the tube sizes and expose surface vary. Fudging MAF readings is nothing new electronically to up economy or performance but fudging them mechanically with a new part is a lot tougher to match well and likely why some folks end up going lean. I bet if you ask a person who's done this to show fuel trims they're likely wonky and probably on the verge of CEL

 

I plan to go back to school eventually.
Probably more trade schools to learn other hvac/electrical,controls stuff

 

What have you taken them through? The dirt stretch between parking lots?

 

Buy me parts and I'll be forever grateful and I'll give you me 5 ton

 

Uh huh sure... Stock Tacoma will take you lots of places, it's almost always the loose nut between the seat and wheel holding you up. I didn't like any ATs I've had, usually just more expensive all seasons. Anything but KO2s can do half decent on a gravel road at least though so if that and the occasional mud bog is all you do I wouldn't worry.

 

If you was on highway tires I swear

 

possibly. if they ever sell me the plow truck i'll be able to test this.

 

Yoko Geo's are what came on my truck when I bought it and oh god were they bad. Obviously tire doesn't matter at all when conditions are hot and dry, but wet traction was abysmal and snow/Ice traction was downright deadly. If you think Yoko's are good, go ahead and get any other tire and you will be blown away! Best of luck.

 

Well that's understandable. If I lived where it is hot and dry I would just buy cheap tires once then never replace them.. sadly I have to deal with snow and ice and cold and rain and very steep pitches.

 

That’s a positive thing.

 

i have never seen a set of hankooks or perellis that have been good.
car or truck

 

I buddy loved his Dynapros when he had em.

 

Why not firestones?

Getcha some KO2’s.
Or ST Maxx’s.
Or any at tire.

 

My Michelin LTXs on the cruiser balance like a dream and are nice and quiet. They seem to wear forever too. If they were better for mud and rocks I'd have em on everything. They're the ideal All Season

 

My truck had Firestone’s on them from the dealer, my dad ran the same brand and model until I changed them out in 2015-ish to Goodyear’s. Hated how small they were, so that’s when I upgraded to the TRD OR 16’s and the BFG KO2’s.

 

The Merc likes to eat through bulbs every six months, so here is it’s six month treatment.

There’s some horrible grounding issue in this car causing these bulbs to burn prematurely. Same thing as the dash.

 

Honestly don’t remember. The spare is original never used. Still has the dealer sticker on it.

The tread pattern resembles BFG KO2’s.
