3rd Gen Quicksand thread

No lift. Removal of front flaps only. If you intend to off-road a bit or hit any trails, look into the 1” raise for the front. I bought the kit, but haven’t installed it yet.

 

Wheels, tires, & lift on order for this QS Taco....

 

I do too. My wife is pissed because she got her car registered before they were available.

 

Hi Dryfly24, I'm a NM Taco owner too. Only had mine a few weeks. Interesting that you like the chili plates. I went with wildlife myself. I saw you were down in the Gila. Was driving through there a few weeks ago.. love that road across the mountain (I was in my Alfa then, didn't have the Tacoma yet). As luck would have it, I was on my way back from Silver City when I stopped at American Toyota in ABQ just to look and they had exactly the Quicksand Tacoma I had been looking for (but for reason it never came up on my internet search of dealers). Picked up my new truck the next day . I'm hoping to add sliders and somewhat different bumper/push bar. I do some serious bad roads with my work and also as a USFS volunteer, but not heavy stuff. If you're in Santa Fe and want to talk trucks over coffee, let me know. Cheers!

 

Thanks Tony. Saw the badge on your profile. I’m a LEO also (retired). I’ll definitely hit you up next time I’m up that way. You do the same if you come down.

 

Sounds good George.. where are you located (town)? Yeah, mandatory retirement for me at 57.. long time ago (before 911).. Hope to meet one day..

 

I’m in Cruces.

Same as me I went early.

 

By the way, that is a very nice truck...

 

Thanks Dryfly.. I take it you like to fish.. some good fishing down your way I assume.. You've probably done the Pecos. I use to fish a good bit years ago, but haven't in a long time. And all my damn gear was stolen during a move a while back. I was never good at fly fishing though. Spent most of my time getting my line out of the tree limbs. Thanks for the compliment on the truck. I'm learning about the Tacoma. Would like some sliders for sure though, not that I'd really need them (to slide over big rocks), but mainly for the protection to the side panels. I'm involved in a project at the old Glorieta Baldie fire tower in the SF National Forest. Last time I was on the road was in the Xterra. Looking forward to taking the Tacoma up there soon. We've had some serious downpours lately so I expect some washed out areas. Looking foward to it though .. I'll let you know if I'm headed your way..

 

First time offroad!

 

Haven’t posted here in a while but I’m thinking about wrapping for a change of color. Was thinking about a darker brown or dark green similar to the new trd pro color.

 

This is the Quicksand thread bro! Don’t tell us about possible color changes, yer doin it wrong! Truck looks sweet. Green with sand bumper and cap might be something though? Kinda family truckster-esque

 

Those 16inch F5s? Less back spacing and more offset? Specs please

 

It is. It’s the 3.5 BS and -25 offset.

 

Love my QS, love the Cement colour, now want the Army Green colour. Cant win!

 

I miss having a Quicksand Tacoma.

 

New wheels and tires this week. I too went with "played out black".

 

Hell yeah! Love seeing another ACLB with a shell and full racks. Looks great man.
