    Started re-wiring my truck. Got the switches under the radio done. I found a new way to route the wires, it's a little easier running wires and wont get in the way under the column like I had it before.
    More tomorrow, maybe running power mirror wires and cruise.

    How do you like the truck without the flares? I keep teetering on the idea :D

    I love it.
    I still have my old flares - but they were toast, super faded and it looks better with them off, honestly.
    I'd like to figure out a paint-matched hardware solution to plug the holes but I plan to do aftermarket bedsides eventually anyway. So I probably won't bother.

    Thank you for the thread with info, I'll be sure to look into this!
    Nice choice on the color matched vinyl with fiberglass sides. That's my long term goal

    TW again with the win, with the help of a thread on here I was able to fix my overhead compass/temp display.

    Next up I need to get all the mud off and clean the interior

    The best part about it is that my wife thinks that it will not be paid off until December......so the "Act as if I'm paying truck payments " money now goes to a new HC rear bumper to order on a black Friday sale.

    Abused my taco by hauling 1-1/2 yards of mulch (~1500lbs) the other day and most definitely bottomed out my rear stock suspension... For the love of gardening, my dudes

    Time to get some new dakar or deaver leaf springs and bilstein 5160s if they ever get back in stock...

    A lovely scene: the supporting wife (ed. comment--she appears to be a looker, congrats!), a faithful hound, the Tacoma, and Yellow Metal time. What's not to like?

    Matched my ham radio to my antenna ('twas good); installed new headlamps (Headlamps America), $103 each; tossed 3/4 of the new recovery kit in the back--Bubba ropes, Rhino shackles (Rhino recovery hitch on the way) and Bubba soft shackles. (Replacement tow strap packed in the tool box earlier this week.)

    Oh, and helped a friend's son count to 2A.
