South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I’ve still got MY Tacoma I’m not getting rid of my baby.

 

Yea it’s crazy they don’t want to give you anything for them but then they want to turn around and sell them for double what they offered. I went to trade mine in as it sits with everything on it and they tried to offer me $12k

 

I gotcha, selling my 2nd taco to fund my wife’s 4runner. I don’t need 2, although 2 tacos are better than one. But a 5th gen 4wd t4r will be just as good.

 

80k and some change.

Same I was expecting the

 

Ive only got 1 kid (plus another in the oven) and my truck is already too small. That’s why I’m buying my buddies 04 Denali on Friday. Need more room and can tow damn near 9k lbs I believe.

 

My dad has been looking at trading his taco in for a Crewmax.. they think a lot of those trucks.. most we've looked at with decent miles have been high 20s to mid 30s.

 

That's what I would like to get out of the Taco with all the parts and stuff, rack, tent, everything.

Spendy, for sure. The more I look the more I am thinking F150.

I like my ecodiesel for now, but I would not recommend it to anyone......nice interior, good fullsize comfort, heated steering wheel and seats are great ! Great mpg's, averaging 26+mpg in the past 12 mos. DEF is not a big deal, I use 7-8 gallons per 10,000 miles. Oil and fuel filter changes are easy. I have one open recall at the moment, that is for the EGR cooler potentially leaking. got a letter a couple weeks ago. basically it read like this "your EGR cooler may leak and as a result may burn your truck to the ground. we dont have a fix for it yet, please stand by" I have a tuned ECU that I can no longer get support for, EPA shut that company down (GDE), I do still have my stock ECU for when I have to go to dealer for recall service (swap in / swap out, 10 minute job). In stock form the thing is a stumbling pos that cant get out of its own way, severe throttle lag until fully warmed up, which can take 15-20 minutes. Next truck will be an F150 ecoboost crew cab, whenever this thing burns to the ground. I know people that run a 2500 Cummins that get around 20 MPG, too much truck for most people's needs though. Oh yeah, my backup camera works about 80% of the time, the fix is to slam the tailgate a few times, and it works again.

 

Wow.. good ol Mopar "quality"..

 

yeah, no

 

on the way to take delivery!

 

the ford diesel I had was nice until the trans went and was on an 8mo back order.

i think I’m done with newer trucks until the next gen tundra/Tacoma come out.

 

hell yeah

 

So I'm thinking I might change rims on the taco

 

Ready for some side work? Maintenance items.

To what?

 

Sharp Tundra Matt!

Friend had this truck in white and let me drive it/haul some stuff for him a few years ago. From what I remember, it drove great and had plenty of power. I just wish this model Tundra was just a little bigger. Somewhere between this and the size they are now.

 

Always ready @Bubbles



Thinking about getting 17x9 black wagon wheels and welding in Rock rings

 

the first gen tundra is what the 3rd gen Tacoma should have been imo.
