Army Green thread: let’s keep it green!

Well, she finally arrived and we picked her up last night. Long time Toyota guy
and this is my first ever new vehicle. My wife was laughing at how excited I was at the dealer. Just waiting for the roof rack to arrive and install. Absolutely love this truck! Plan to keep it for a very long time.

 

Do you mind sharing where you are getting it done and how much it costs? Thinking of doing that on mine. Thinking XPel for the clear bra and haven't researched or decided yet on a ceramic coating, might depend on the cost.

 

Welcome to Team Army Green!

 

gorgeous. What rack are you getting? I'm about ready to give up on Toyota getting an OEM solution for the 20s. Already missed a snow season.

 

Jtoeps, I ordered the Toyota factory rack. I did see notes about issues with rack but dealer stated there is no issue. Anyone with further input regarding factory rack for 2020?

 

Unless they have modified the cross bars the rear bar will not fully clear the antenna - which was moved to reduce the 3rd brake light water leak issue. There should be multiple threads about it around here somewhere.

 

TRD-Ed any updates on your delivery date? Getting close to seeing which one of us picked the date.

 

My dealer installed the factory rack, noted it didn’t fit and kinda left it there. I have had it installed and am reluctant to remove it without a replacement.

if your dealer has a solution, please post here, it’d be a world first.

I highly suggest making sure the bars clear the antenna before signing your paperwork.

really want an OEM solution that works.

 

Jtoeps, that sucks! I'm really pissed with my Toyota dealer and how they have handled this matter. I shared with my sales rep that there may be an issue with OEM roof rack and he said he looked into and spoke to service Dept manager and they have not heard anything. They had no Tacoma's with roof racks on the lot that I could have inspected. They gave me a good deal, $2,480 of MSRP for AG Pro with multiple options. I've already paid for roof rack. I thing I'm going to speak to General Manager and ask for clarity with situation and possible cancel order and receive refund.

 

It’s not a taillight replacement. It’s a wiring harness/bulb replacement that changes how the factory tails work. Look for “total taillight stage 1”

Ahh, OK got it. I can't find the Stag 1 listed on the Meso page - Stage 2 is there but sold out...but I get the idea now.

 

May be hidden in there I think. I had to search pretty hard just now to find it. I sign up for email notifications on his products as they sell out super quickly. They look great though!

 

YEE HA - just got the call, my truck just came off the semi and will be ready this afternoon - FINALLY

 

I did find the info on it when I searched - still can't find it listed on the DIY page - except for the Stage 2. I like the quality of the Meso stuff...but the stock issues are frustrating. Every time I see anything it is out of stock. Except for the Gas Hole - got that on my truck and also have the TRD Pro bucket for the center console but ended up buying it from another vendor.

 

Woo Hoo!!! Can't wait to see the pictures!!

 

looks like it’s in stock...

That's wild - my first search didn't bring it up - and you can't find it through the DIY kit link...but it's there if you use the right keywords in the search.

 

10/10 recommend. They look so much better than stock. 15 minute install too.

 

Man, these things are the coolest looking of the new stuff! I loved the look of the third gen when I first saw it few years ago where second gen kinda grew on me but love it equal like a child, but now this color is unfair! It's the best Tacoma by far!

 

Toyota of Scranton here in northeast PA still has an AG AT Pro sitting on the lot - been there at least a week. MSRP listed at $48,582 - has some options like Bed Step, Door Edge Guard, Door Sill Protector,
Mudguards, and Bed Lights.
