Ontario BS Thread

I sent the pipes out to the guy who is bending them for me the other day. I'll make mounts tomorrow. I should have it blasted and painted next weekend

 

Creating room for your chickens to hang out is also a good reason to lift your Tacoma

 

Installed

 

Do those not come on the 3rd gen? I use mine every time I get in my truck. I wonder what else they dont put on the new trucks compared to old?

 

2012 - bed pockets above wheel arches deleted
2013 (2014?) - outside temp display deleted
2015 - physical clock deleted
2016 - driver's side grab handle deleted
2017 - driveshaft grease fittings deleted, glovebox divider deleted
2019 - driver's side bed cubby deleted
2020 - aux transmission cooler deleted, windshield GoPro mount deleted

 

I use all that stuff except go pro mount. Glad I heard of this before I get a new truck and find out the hard way

 

The clock and outside temp are displayed in the LCD screens now. Of course there's all the new stuff like heated seats, backup camera with night vision, damped tailgate, adaptive cruise... The missing grab handle was the only real daily inconvenience though. If KTJO4x4 didn't offer this kit, I would've hacked something together by drilling through the existing A-pillar plastic.

 

Lol just noticed the instrument cluster display will show an access door ajar

 

I am lucky enough to not even get an outside temp sensor

My rear view mirror has compass direction displayed in it.

 

My 16 MT has a Ti shift knob


Its the TiRD Edition

 

When my rear bumper arrives, I'll finally be able to put my Ti TRD emblem on it:

 

Another Ti aficionado! Good man!

 

There's a mod for that: https://www.amazon.ca/Yosoo-Multi-Functional-Digital-Thermometer-Temperature/dp/B01EHO3FGU/

No temp sensor on mine, I have to stick my head out and look like a dog.

 

pssh all those wires and ungodly look of that thing wtf

I can just look at the intake air temp on my torque pro app via OBDII adapter if I want. I never do though.

 

How about you feel the temp on the walk up to the door? You should already know how it feels before starting the truck.

 

Nope, I need the truck to tell me or I just take off all my clothes and curl up in a ball in the driver seat.

 

Screaming at the truck...

Curious how much higher the intake air temp is compared to outside air temp on a really cold day.

 

Its significantly higher. Havent ran my tourque app for a while now, but i do recall the intake vs ambient oudoor temps were quite different
