What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Dude, I probably go through two packages a week and have crafted the bacon weave blanket when I want to get fancy.

 

I take my bacon blanket and throw it in the oven over top of a mixing bowl to make edible serving bowls. My favorite is for potato salad.

EDIT: which I serve on the tailgate of my 3rd gen just to stay on topic.

 

Will def have to try this

 

Just 1/4 of what i cooked for a big family brunch we had last fall for my moms bday

 

Knocked out my fuel pump recall today ..... I even got most of my full tank of fuel back.

 

Finished product. Very happy with how they came out and stoked about the performance.

you brought them a full tank. You’re a cold dude

 

Looks good, I have a 2020 Sport DCLB with the factory Firestone Destination LE2's. They look lame. Also, I don't know much about the tire other that the 800 KM's I've put on them and they seem okay for city and highway. I went light off roading twice and they seemed unimpressive. I've run Costco Michelin M+S on all of my past vehicles for the last 25 years.

On your truck I like the looks of the KO2's. However the Bridgestones look good as well, Was also thinking about the Goodyear Duratracs. It rains a lot in my location so I like that you suggest that they do well in the rain.

I assume with going one size up from stock there is no rubbing and minimal fallout with the speedometer and mileage? I don't want a lift at this point just better all round performance and looks.

 

Thats the stuff I remember. Spray bottle had a weird little pump on the top.

 

Didn't feel like pulling the cluster panel. Agreed...no chrome.

 

How did you attach the water port?

 

The WaterPort Mount (https://thewaterport.com/product/universal-mount-plate/) is mounted on one of these Rago mounts:

 

State 48 Overland breather relocate kit mod. 20 mins and two IPA beers, easy peasy.

You're right, they do look lame. They'd look OK on a Camry tho.

 

Yup. WaitingOnMyR1T and I were PM'ing and I went with his setup ideas. Little pricey on the mounts, but perfect for what I needed and I don't have to fab anything.

I used to have the 1st gen of the WaterPort and loved it, but it ended up failing at a seam and started weeping. Can't trust it under full pressure going forward so I got the 2nd gen (I think). Pic of the 1st gen below.

It's the military in me.....tank is always topped off, and I always have two jerry cans in the bed. Even on long road trips, I always top off at a 1/3 of a tank. I remember I was stuck on 95 north in a traffic jam, right out of college, running from a hurricane. I was running on fumes. The trip computer said I was empty a half hour ago.....never again.

 

Replaced my factory speakers with Alpines. Big difference but most likely won’t get the full affects until I spring for an amp.

 

The things we are taught in the military, some people will never understand. People tell me all the time, that's just the military in you.
