What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

How have you like the Ceramic Pro? I have been contemplating this for awhile now.

 

Where did you pick those up from?

 

I have done nothing. My Tacoma is still in Quarantine as the dealership is still totally locked up.
I ordered in March 13th. It came in pretty quick but then everything shut down.
Today I got an email saying that they will start to open just the service part starting May 4th. Sales? Who knows.
But....with light at the end of the tunnel I can start ordering a topper and more aftermarket parts.

Since ordering mine, I find at least a little relief watching this thread to see what everyone else is doing.

 

how do you get power up to the roof?

 

i'm drooling at your truck.

 

replaced the air cabin and engine air filter last week. last night I installed the cup holder inserts from tufskinz. while I like them, I will be painting the orange for a similar caramel color, if I can find any.

 

theres a channel that runs along the side of your windshield. You can tuck the wire in there.

 

where are you located? Our dealerships remained open through all of this. They deliver the car/truck to you. Everything done online or over the phone.

 

...but a Tundra can!

 

OH YEAH!! TOTALLY TUNDRA!!!

 

Anyone use Caliper covers on their front breaks? (MGP Caliper Covers)

 

Not to me!

 

Easily and reliably.

 

That would set me off. Better call that dealer , find the service manager, and give him some ear rape. I really hate going to any dealership except to buy cars because of shit like this. Lazy ass techs and incompetent people.

 

Unfortunately I've found this to be true when bringing my Tacoma in for Toyota Care. In March the dealership that I purchased my Tacoma from did the creaky clutch TSB. Just recently my clutch started acting up and I brought it in to a dealership much closer to home. They charged me $135 to adjust the clutch pedal because the dealership that did the TSB on the clutch did not tighten the nut on the rod going to the master cylinder. They would not honor it under warranty because the other dealership had already performed the TSB on the clutch pedal. Will contact Toyota Motor Corp and file a complaint.

 

I have emailed them and they are not even doing online buying or delivery. Other dealerships are open or have stayed open.
This one locked down everything. 343 Covid cases as of today in that county.
Service department will be doing limited services soon. No word on retail.
If I didn't throw down (refundable) $500 to get the color I wanted over there to buy, I would just go somewhere else. But, the price was really good with no hassle. So I'll wait. I'm not out anything, as I didn't even sign for it, other than the refundable deposit.

This dealership is over by Oshkosh.

 

Can the truck be transferred to another dealer to be processed?

 

You would think somewhere along the way this sort of crap would cut into their sales. It's happened to me far too many times to count with multiple Toyota Dealerships. Its probably not like Toyota has cornered the market on this sort of thing but they've been the bane of my existence here over the past 3 or 4 years. I had a Lexus many many years ago and the didn't do this sort of thing.

I really like my Tacoma and don't regret purchasing it (used) one bit - post many, many mods. I do kinda wish though that some more folks would put out a M/T in a truck. Not sure I'm ready for the Gladiator, but a Diesel M/T Colorado ZR2 would be kinda fun

P.S. It also seems like some manufacturer could focus on customer service and start grabbing some market share. Don't kill me on this, but Chick-Fil-A seems to understand what I'm talking about. Anything about politics aside; from my myopic, privileged, selfish standpoint: their employees have always treated me well. And that's in every store that I've ever been in and it makes me want to come back again. Damn... now I'm hungry
