Right off the truck

When I picked it up. Traded the 2016 TRD OR AT with 50k Miles

Somewhere near Vedauwoo, WY (with 4,xxx miles on the odo)

Out at the family farm

Mexico Border (El Paso, TX Area)

Canada Border (Warroad, MN Area)
Spring 2019

Current state

 

Dang, 40k miles in a year! That's some serious driving. Nice truck.

 

Very nice truck and extremely nice trailer. With 40K miles it is almost about time to trade that one in isn't it? Your '16 only had 50K on it so you have about another 10K to go.

 

Naw. I’m almost to 60k now, I won’t be getting rid of this one any time soon

 

Every one says the factory batteries aren’t lasting more than a year or two so I figured it was time to swap that out before I got stranded somewhere

 

Nice, where in Iowa you located?

 

I can only imagine what I would have had if I had traded mine in @ 50k ... i will have to consult my records to see when I hit that mark

how times change!
20yrs ago my oem battery lasted about 7 years lol

 

Waterloo / cedar falls area

 

I wasn’t planning on it but I had to get rid of the auto before I went crazy or that shifty sob exploded

 

the AT was not working well?

did you get one of those specialty TRD battery hold downs from someone here making them .. coupe?

 

Still using the stock battery hold down. I did put in the plastic tray thing from a second gen when I put in the group 27 battery.

 

Most recent photo from playing in mud. These are supposed to be roads

 

you still have snow?
it like 80 degrees over here where I am at

I need to get my truck a dash cam!

 

Adding my expo west run on the Land Rover discovery course. Stock truck plus falken AT3W, TRD PRO wheels and fox 2.0 in the rear. Very capable truck from the factory. Much more than people think

 

That was a few weeks ago. It’s all gone now. Supposed to be 80 here on Sunday.

 

with a dash cam I could cruise around my state from one bridge out to the next bridge out and take video
I will have to check out that setup

 

Rexing v1 gen 3. I’ve been running it about a year now and it’s been great.

Using a fuse tap and one of these off the cig fuse
