What purchase have you REGRETTED the most?

It's literally the same thing as jet boil. Nests inside. Legs for the butane, clicker for ignition, built in wind shield. My buddies lid fits so the press will work too.

 

You can get the TRD Pro faux grill, one giant piece of cheap plastic, still looks good

 

My access literider tonneau cover which is a roll-up. I have nothing against it. In terms of quality, it is simple, affordable and well made. I wanted that back in 2016, but after 3 years and moving to a part of town that is not as safe where car break-ins occur every night. I really wish I had sprung the extra cash for a hard top tri-fold. It is double the price of the literider but well worth it for the security.

 

Here is the one I really want. Full access to the cab and being hard top is what I really need.

bought wife #2's rings twice - once when we got engaged and 2nd time from the pawn shop where she pawned them after divorce

 

I ordered one already! $150 at MotorGenic for the grille and sensor cover; free shipping.

 

Mines a compound regret first is the snorkel got a great deal on it was one of those had a few an get on Amazon nights. Like the extra passing power an slight mpg increase.
But with the dorky snorky installed the truck looked a little off with nothing on the roof to offset it. So I ordered an Martin roofrack love the look but can’t stand the wind noise from a strong head/crosswind. Makes the roof slightly flex an the rack is like a kite pushing me all over the road.

 

I regretted buying regular Dakars so I added a leaf to make them HDs now no regrets.

Every day I simultaneously regret and love my high octane tune from Ovtune.

 

A bull bar....got it as a gift so I couldn't really get rid of it.

Plus as a couple people earlier had put...the Tacoma in general. It's a great little truck, but man...if you have that itch of modding...it gets expensive real quick. And I think I would've gone with a 4runner instead....next time I guess

 

A full Gibson catback exhaust... Not on this truck but on a Dakota I owned about 20 years ago. Seemed like a great idea at the time... "Let's cut off and perfectly good stock exhaust system on our V6 and put on this ridiculously loud droning thing to annoy the entire neighborhood and give ourselves a headache as we drive down the interstate".

My advice to anyone looking at exhaust is to leave it alone unless you own a V8.

 

My brother had a 1996 Dodge Dakota V6: man, that exhaust sounded sweet totally stock!

But yeah, V6s in general sound pretty awful. I like the sound of Tacoma with the manual transmission, not so much with the automatic.

 

4x innovation weld-ons are 280 shipped...it's what I have on mine.

 

I've had that set up before and my wheeling rig (XJ sport) just sat in my driveway. I had a fast sedan but always had to call a buddy or rent a u-haul for house chores. The truck was a great compromise and I don't miss the speed at all, considering a granny in a stock Tesla model S would smoke my V8 in a straight line.

 

Have icon and 285s. I feel like I'm almost done with the build but getting 35s would spill into another realm of spending (LT, glass, regearing, etc) and I wheel only a handful of times a year.

Plus, my kids' college funds would suffer

 

My BFG K02 tires... They have never balanced, despite many attempts, road force balancing included. This is aside from the fact they are incredibly heavy at 54lbs a pop, but I knew that going in.

 

1st one of two wedding rings I've bought in my life....2nd worked out a little better (so far)

 

I bought some inexpensive chrome side steps. They were essential for my kids but I wish I'd saved up some money a little longer and bought the predator tube steps. Just like the look of those better and I've since blacked out all the rest of the chrome on my truck.

I also got a 5% window tent and wish I had not gone so dark. It's a little sketchy driving/turning at night if there aren't a lot of street lights around. I should've stopped at 15 or 20%. I had something like an 18% on my last car and it was a much better balance for day and night driving.

 

My Tacoma LOL

 

There's always the GI Bill. Lol.

 

I'm almost done using it up. Gotta love Seattle BAH.
