Beautiful long bed! What suspension are you running? How much lift do you have?

I’m glad someone noticed!

I'm not sure what to say other than "it works great". Posted a link to the product in previous post. I have a case on my phone (a big ass iphone XS Max) and the magnet still works well through it. What i wanted was a way to mount my phone with as low-profile a mount as possible without blocking a vent.

My case is slim enough that the QI charger still works too, by the way, although it's only about 1% added every 2-3 minutes.

 

Thanks for the info

 

I didn't have the patience to wait.

Softopper works with decked system, but you lose the ability to fold it closed due to clearance. For future reference.

 

Let's hear em!

 

Easthill, I knew there was something about you that I liked! My first car was a '68 Fiat 850 Spyder. Remember the centrifugal oil filter in the crank pully? I sold my third X/19 just before I bought the "18 Tacoma.

 

Put 800 miles on mine this past weekend. Finally broke 5K miles. My first long trip in this truck. Got 20mpg running 80-85 in the left lane. I can live with that.

 

My temporary one for now, going to build a different one with a single large drawer. Is decked with the price? I think it’s pricey

Curious to know if you have any pros and cons

 

Just installed my bed racks from http://tacomapocalypse.com/product/2005-toyota-tacoma-bed-rack/

Moab in the middle of peak season has turned into a gong show. They're building more hotels than the water table can even support right now trying desperately to keep up. It's going to implode under its own weight which is really sad because it is such an awesome place otherwise.

 

I didn't even know these were available. NICE

 

Decided to save myself $1000 and build my own bed slide. Used simple furniture sliders, slides extremely easy.

 

Plasti-dipped the chrome bezel around the grill last night. 8 coats of P-D and 3 coats of glossifier. Before/during after:









I was shooting for something closer to the smoked color of the grill, but seeing it now I'd like it to be a little darker. I might re-do it using more black coats of P-D with only one coat of glossifier instead of three. Going to sit with it for a week or two and then decide. Fun project though.
