    I wouldn't have a vehicle in MN without a block heater. I went to High School in Northern Minnesota. As a rule I plug in if the temp's at -5F and colder.

    I am patiently (impatiently) waiting for my phone call from the LTL carrier that is dropping off my Alpha tent. Weather is finally warming so I can install my Sherpa roof rack and then test fit the tent.

    Heard good things about the Icon RXT leaf packs, they have 3 different configurations you can set them at for different amounts of weight. Planning to get myself a set this year.

    Big shoutout to the guys at Budget Muffler in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Welded on this Magnaflow 12256 muffler in about 20 minutes without me having an appointment (took longer for curbside pickup at Summit Racing). They even let my dog hang in the waiting room “as long as he didn’t shit on the floor.”

    I love the sound and I figured it should pair nicely with my next mod for the 2.7 sitting in the basement due to the frigid temps.

    This 5 speed 5 lug should be a blast when finished

    Headlights, taillights, touchscreen head unit, grille, rims, more to come.
    Had some down time this weekend because of the ice storm. So I decided to turn my Acura rims on my taco into some teq one off rims ‍♂️. They look better imo, I'll be painting them or hydro dipping at some point.20210216_094424.jpg 16135194504053085513297598807614.jpg

    I have a Decked system, rack and rtt. Probably carrying 450 daily and close to 600 loaded for camping. Spare mounted on the decked as well.

    Thanks for the heads up, will keep an eye on those.

    I had been carrying my emergency tool bag and other items in passenger floorboard which was inconvenient for my wife when she went with me somewhere. I decided to look behind the seat of my ‘08 Tacoma base model for a solution and was pleasantly surprised to find a couple hooks where I could hang tool bag and accessories.

    Can confirm, just installed RXT's on option 2 and got 4" lift (expecting them to settle) they ride like a dream. Way better than stock, not rough at all but a good firm. Only had them for a short time so we will see how they last over time but I absolutely love them.

    From what I have gathered researching on this forum they offer just as much lift as Dakars but allow more droop and ride a bit softer on the road. I have heard people move up to Deavers when they get tired of their Dakars but I wasnt about to drop double the money nor did I need the carrying capacity Deavers offer.
