What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

yeah, it’s not. I went with 50% so it’s not really dark but I do have 5% on all the other windows and black interior. It’s noticeable from the outside since you can’t really see in but from inside the truck it doesn’t even look tinted. I drive dark country roads at night and it hasn’t impaired my vision at all

 

@MESO gasshole and coin holder. Sometimes it's the small things that matter most. I've had meso turn signals for a while, they are the beeznees.

 

Hmmm...14,000 miles on my ridge grapes and still look new.

 

Parking lot proweled for a bit to see where I was still rubbing. Passenger side in reverse... Fun fact: there was a cop sitting in the lot behind me.

 

5k mile interval oil change. 5 qts. of mobil1 extended mileage, 1.2 qts. mobil1 advanced formula...I didn't do this blend on purpose, just what I had.

lubed my 5 drive shaft zerks as I do at every oil change. Really happy I have them on my 2016. I believe 2017+ don't have them and Toyota claims they are lifetime lubed, which is impossible. I'm betting those trucks will have pervasive propeller failures when they all start to get up to 100k plus miles. I will say the zerk on the rear of the front drive shaft is a PITA, some people take the heat shield off, I prefer to be really stubborn and do it without that and have it take 2x the time than it would if I just removed the heat shield...because man logic.

 

dude, what pics do you want to see. A bunch of greasy Zerks? My oil filter? dirty oil? empty mobil1 containers? I would think everyone on here knows what an oil change and zerk lube looks like.

 

I just got my speakers in too. I agree

 

Where did you get the premium Head unit?

 

All of the above is worthy of joining the wall of text you left. I'm a visual kind of guy.

 

Do you have par numbers? i have been contemplating doing the exact same thing? was the install hard? pictures? thanks!!

 

I believe he's just pullin' your leg. Want me to pull the other one so you don't walk with a limp?

Have a good night Bud!

 

oh, sorry, didn't pick up on the sarcasm if that's the case. A wink emoji would have helped with that. No big deal though. I was razzing him back anyway. No butt hurt on my end.

 

On vacation with the family. I’ll create a thread when I return Monday.

 

Yes. I took the rubber body plugs out to get a cleaner line.

 

Lots of kidding around here, best not to take folks too seriously. There'll be a pissin' match from time to time but for the most part we all get along.
Hard to tell sometimes when someone's just poking fun at you but the moderators will usually put a halt to it before it gets too far out of hand. We're all friends here sharing ideas and to the chagrin of some, sometimes just having a chat.
Have a nice evening Bud!

 

Installed the Street Guardian dash cam, front and rear with the parking mode, super happy with its low profile

 

So, I'll chime in on this for shits and giggles. I have a set of duratracs on my 19, which I switched over from my 96. When they were new, they were fantastic in every condition I threw at them. They were great for DD duty, I took them cross country and ran them all over Utah and Colorodo and in the OR parks here on the east coast. They have probably 70K on them and at least 50% tread left, but they are not what they used to be. I dont know if the rubber gets harder when it gets older or if there's another reason, but they are now 8 yrs old and I just want to replace them.

 

Just the tip or the whole exhaust?
