What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Oh, forgot to mention the heated and cooled seats are nice too.

 

Added some camp lights to the rack for bed and awning side of the truck. Wired to constant 12v so they can be used without messing with the SwitchPros or ignition.

What is MGM in your truck description?

 

Magnetic Gray Metallic

 

Are those caliraised bolt ons?

 

Where did you get the tailgate lock?

 

Is that the Land Cruiser model Cascadia 4x4 VSS System? How do you like it thus far?

 

Its the 3rd gen Tacoma VSS model, but they do make a model for the Land Cruiser as well. It's working great so far, but I haven't really stress tested its capabilities yet. Moab for a week next week should put it through its paces. I plan to leave my roof rack lights on for hours from dusk to bed time. We'll see how she does!

 

Any daytime pics on how the lights are mounted in the scoop?

 

USELESS INFORMATION WARNING!

Not that this is important, but you guys do know that amazon isn't actually responsible for this, right? Very few things on amazon are actually from amazon. It's 3rd party sellers/retailers who are selling the items. They write the descriptions, they provide images (except for certain circumstances when someone piggybacks off an existing ASIN), and everything else. When you see a "prime" item, it's that way because said 3rd party has paid to ship an inventory to an amazon warehouse, for amazon to manage and ship accordingly. The 3 exclusions to this are the few items that you see with "sold by Amazon.com" under the buy button (in which case it's because amazon saw enough volume and margin to invest in their own inventory), items that are amazon exclusive like echo items, fire_ items, etc., and items which are branded "amazon basics" (which by the way are/were 3rd party seller items which amazon saw enough of a demand for to contract their own manufacturing for the product, typically through the original 3rd party seller).

I know this because I used to do this every day

Just thought it's good knowledge to know. So when you see weird stuff floating around, it's whoever actually wrote the listing (not an amazon employee)

 

Yep, that’s it

 

Just finished printing my first custom made console tray. All of my own making, no outside assets.

 

No, they are custom made.

 

Drove off pavement for the 1st time!

 

Nice work! The one I bought on Amazon doesn’t really hold the coins that well, they tent to pop out. You must drive through a lot of tolls with that much change capacity.

 

Looks good! I would use ABS if that is PLA. PLA will warp in the sun/heat. Also, maybe print it in black? I don't know if your interior is white or has white accents but to each their own!

 

I had white just laying around lol. But yea, I know about the PLA warping. I'm not in a particularly hot climate, so not too worried.

 

Buy a lot of coffees* no such things as tolls in canada (except the 407, but that's entirely electronic, no stopping. I'm also a change hoarder.

 

Thanks bud. The gap is 0.8mm and it's listed in the owners manual in the glove box. And no you dont need it, I didn't change the gaskets the first time I did plugs but I'm glad I did it the second time. The throttle body gasket was pretty deformed but the intake one was fine, I could have reused it, but I didn't want any leaks and figured what's $12 bucks?

 

Gotcha. I didn’t see that in your info at first. I hoard change for the self car wash.
