OV tune update: @dave5623 is a super nice guy and took about 15 mins from start to finish to flash my ECU. He’s got everything you need to get it done. I chose the 91 octane and 33” tire tune. (You can pick whatever depending your setup and what fuel you choose to run)

The truck drives 100% different. The shifts are VERY smooth. (You can barely feel them) and I feel like I only have to press the throttle 15% and the truck just goes now. I saw a 2mpg increase in my MPGs on the drive home but I think I read it takes about 500-1000 miles to learn your driving habits again. I’m also finishing up a tank of mid grade so should see improvement once I get a full tank of premium.
The shift points are also more refined. Usually when I’m in cruise control and hit the slightest incline it would drop two gears to compensate trying to maintain speed. No more of that. Truck feels like it should now and couldn’t be happier. If you’ve got a 3rd gen Tacoma this is a must do mod. Shoot David a message and get tuned! He’s local to the ellicott city area.

I swear I didn’t pay him to write all of that. Only most of that...

I hope everyone else's year has started off better than mine. I usually dont post drama but 3 days before Christmas I lost my 63yo uncle due to cancer, wife & I tested positive for covid 10 days ago, she was hospitalized for a day. We both are over our 10 day quarantine and feeling better now. Then the worse happened, my cousin's blind 21yo stepson Cody (that he raised since he was just a kid) was murdered on his front lawn at his house in Rosedale for no reason by a pos drug addict neighbor. Even tho Cody was completely blind due to Battens disease he didn't let that slow him down one bit. He loved the outdoors, specially my cabin where he would shoot his guns, ride shotgun with me in my SxS & BS around the firepit. He was also into wrestling and working out. It was a relief to finally be back at work today to keep my mind occupied.

Sorry for your loss Dave, my condolences to you and your familia

68dave · Jan 12, 2021

Thanks everyone. Losing my uncle was tough but losing Cody has been tragic. Even with his blindness & battling Battens disease he was the most positive well mannered person you would ever meet. He conquered everything he put his mind too. He declined to go to a school for the blind, he attended public school. He wrestled for Sparrows Point high school and won multiple matches, among other sports that he played. He worked as a electrician apprentice during the summers. He never let his disability slow him down. I'm sure some of you saw his story on the news last week. The drug addict that stabbed him 5 times in his own front yard in broad daylight said he did it to "end his misery because he was blind", unbelievable.

Hello Maryland Peeps! I just moved here for an internship and am living in Annapolis, but I commute to Baltimore for work so I'll be in those areas mostly. Joined the Old Bay Tacos Facebook page to try and get out to do stuff, but always open to meet new people for wrenching and off roading. I'm kind of a newb to the whole off-roading thing, so looking forward to some learning opportunities.

Will help rebuild LCAs in exchange for friendship lol

Live nearby and also commute to Baltimore County. As Rusty mentioned, HiLux surf on fb is more active in the offroad scene.
