    At least monthly before the 'rona. Now they're generally spontaneous and "unplanned."

    Also pretty sure Chad is patient zero because he can't NOT hug people. I don't need those kind of cooties in my life right now.

    You're "prickly." Like a cactus. As in, we COULD hug you, but it would hurt.

    Looking for suggestions on a shop to to in or around ATX... looking to get a roof rack and tonneau cover.

    Suggestions on what to look at for both would be great as well!

    I recommend AutoAnything.com for the tonneau. They have quite a few to choose from and you can talk them into discounts. Use the code outlined here.
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...er-working-here.497320/page-102#post-23538905

    I have the Extang Solid-Fold 2.0. It's 4 1/2 years old now, no issues. Easy to take off and put back on with no drilling. Other folks like Bakflips. AutoAnything carries them both and it ships right to your house.

    As for rack...too many choices. It all depends on what specifically you're going to use it for. For that, your choices are everything from the dealership for the stock roof bars to any of several dozen manufacturers. In that regard, simply go to the 3rd Gen Forum and do a search. https://www.tacomaworld.com/forums/3rd-gen-tacomas-2016.186/
