The Sax Hauler: S/C'd TRD Pro lux truck

Haha creepy, yet functional!

 

^ I'd buy that bumper sticker

 

Where did you have key made? Where did you get remote key from?

 

There was a guy on here that used to sell them, then I got it cut & programmed. I think he quit doing it a couple years ago though.

 

Thanks

 

Found the thread, looks like it's been dead for awhile.

Seems like someone should be able to make more, I think it's just a VW blank with the Toyota chip in it.

 

I like the concept, running a viper alarm so have a separate pager to carry regardless.

 

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated ... just 3 miles to work and back every day, nothing exciting.

Today I found a big old cherry tree to use my newly ported and modded chainsaw on. Loaded up the truck & trailer and it hauled it across town like a champ.

 

[Boredom warning - service update below]

Got my 30k service done today. 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25k were at local Toyota dealerships but I'm not confident in any of their service departments, so I found a local Toyota Master Tech who worked at a dealership then went out on his own. He does stuff right, is honest, and knows Toyotas inside and out.

Changing gear oil in diffs at 30k is only supposed to be for trucks doing heavy 4x4 and towing (which I almost never do), but I did full synthetic 75w90 in the rear diff, transfer case, and front diff. Team Overkill ftw.
Went with Mobil 1 full synthetic 5w30 in the engine and Wix premium filter.

 

Saw this guy rocking all the accessories, looking good ... but made me appreciate my 2nd gen as I could hear his transmission shifting up and down and up and down and up and down the whole time I was by him. That’d drive me crazy!

 

The ways of the turd takes a strong man to master.

Sadly, we arnt it!

 

For posterity:

 

Well no wonder i couldnt find an inferno with a 6spd

Nice find on the numbers

 

Haha yeah for sure. I’m trying to get the manual vs auto #s but it’s looking unlikely.

 

I would love to see those!

 

I spotted this absolute legend of a man at my local auto parts store

 

needs more bs in here

 

def too much Taco, not enough sauce lately

 

I think you need to use that fancy chainsaw of yours for something. Cut off a bedpost maybe?

 

Love this avatar action we got going on!
