Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

If anyone's interested, I've been tying flies because it's something easy to do on EMS. Anyone want a few random ones? They aren't amazing but they aren't bad. I've been following the orvis video since that's the kit my sis bought me.

 

I tie some of my own flies. Mainly the ones I use for musky/pike and streamers for smallmouth and/or trout. I don't tie small trout flies because I don't have the patience.

 

Wisconsin is famous for snowmobile trails
is there not enough snow this year?
i have not seen any pics transporting of snowmobiles

 

Are we thinking of the same Wisconsin? Trails by my place haven’t been really useable in the last few years. When they are open here they’re only open for a week maybe two. Right now they’re just mud stripes in the fields.

 

The trails around here were open, I think. I did see the trail groomer out last week. I haven't seen or heard any snowmobiles using trails near me.

 

I've seen a few around Madison. Been short on snow overall though.

 

Need reccomendations
Rear bumper, maybe front, dash cam upgrade?
Potentially suspension if I'm going to keep adding weight..

 

Add the weight then figure out the suspension to accommodate the weight.

I just got a new dash cam I need to put in. I’ve had the v1 gen3 for the last two years and it’s been pretty great.

Hey dudes - does anyone know of a shop that applies undercoatings, like Krown (or other non-oil based), in the greater SE WI area? Looking at options with more longevity than annual Fluid Film applications, just curious if any of you have had positive experiences.

 

@Shellshock is the man to get that done for you! check out the work he did under his rig (same color as yours i think)
i will even roadtrip to help out if you need, if you have a decent compressor it makes it a bit more convenient
do you have some ramps to get one side up a bit higher if you're still stock

i have not yet heard of any product that lasts for more than a year
the CF 3000 stuff from Canada is suggested to reapply every 18 months

but FF is the TW standard it seems

 

Appreciate the input dude! I don't have ramps, but those wouldn't be difficult to come by. Overall I'm just doubtful that Toyota took steps towards preventative frame treatment, even with my '19, so just taking a look at options for longevity.

 

i hear you all day long on that, trucks are expensive!

another thing to note
.... i had looked into a local Krown place in NE but when they told me they needed to drill holes in my door jams and plug them I WALKED THE OTHER WAY!!!

 

Not sure what has real longevity. I’ve had great luck with fluid film, doesn’t take too much work, and it’s not a bad idea to crawl under there and get a good luck around while you are applying to see if there are any issues.

 

Just invite him over to GQ's Garage and Triage unit for a full frame inspection and service special. Grand opening limited time only priced at $99.99 (price includes free tourniquet)

 

1 more reason you should move forward with your business plan

 

pics of wot you got could be helpful

this is one from a 2nd gen, the red shows up better than black
clean and clear

basic dirt accumulation, no washing yet to see how well product sticks in this area
winter has been very mild, not much snow at all here, couple inches or so






i really could not do much underneath because the frame was rubber undercoated
but did hit all the suspension, rear axle, driveshaft, etc.
basically the works, the whole package as i could do

 

I just bought 4 rhino ramps and 6 aerosol cans of fluid film. Pressure washed everything then applied fluid film. I only used 3-4 I think.

 

Whut in tarnation is goin on in here.

 

Just make sure when you apply FF it's not on a day before a rain storm or heavy snow. I've had a fair bit wash off pretty quickly. more washed off from the areas that are constantly battered by water and debris overtime, but that's to be expected.
