What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks, man...been thinking about doing this. This is helpful info for sure!

 

This is a piece of cake mod! Another member had posted that it’s plug and play on 20+ tacos and the cargo light is useless with the tonneau closed.The installation instructions provided by the dealership are crap so thought I would take some photos and share with my TW family.

 

Cargo lights? We have cargo lights?

 

I purchased the cover form Amazon, and the look was not good, ended up buying some Black Gorilla lug nuts

 

How comfy is hell exactly?
Ah yes, being in a Tacoma feels just as good as laying on searing hot coals with an imp beating me with a pitch fork.
I understood your meaning, but I just couldn’t resist.

 

Incorporated with the third brake light on the TRD models as far as I know (but that’s not sayin’ much).

 

Friday, but I’ve been traveling around getting this tune business rolling.

Went to NYC for business and found some dude with a 6month old Softopper, couldn’t pass the deal up.

 

Hoping this will scare away potential thieves..

 

Grill arrived early. She's got a bit of a facelift now. More to come soon

 

Right? I wonder what the profit margin is. There's no way it should cost that much.

 

Got some squat going yesterday towing this camper we rented for the weekend.

 

What's the weight on that trailer? How did it pull?

 

All mods added 100+ HP lol.

I posted in the new member forum about the mods I'm looking for some advice on. Here they are...

1. Front Grille - I have the PVM system so the OEM TRD Pro grille seems like my only option unless I want to screw up the cameras. Any tips on a cool grille here?
2. Performance upgrades - The truck is a little sluggish. I'd love some opinions on anything from a supercharger to bolt on stuff I can install like cold air to exhaust. Has anyone tried the pedal dominators?
3. Camper Shell - I've seen the smart caps and prefer the G2 sport camper shell. Any thoughts or opinions here? I got a quote for $4k for a g2 shell! Seemed high to me.
4. Lighting - mostly interested in installing simple amber lights in the front grille but don't like the look of the "clear" tail lights. Anyone have any thoughts here?

RVshare has the gross weight listed at 4,000 lbs. Pulled it fine, it probably would have gone a little smoother with a weight distribution hitch and some mirror extensions. I installed a Redarc Tow Pro Elite trailer brake controller a month or so ago, that really helped. Only about 20 minutes of towing between the pickup location and the campsite so transmission temps stayed below 200.

 

If I didn't have the 32" light bar behind grill I'd be all over it. In Republic of Alberta we don't have front license plates due to equalization payments we can't afford them!

 

You need Timbren's !

 

Thanks for the info. I add it to the memory bank. It helps me dial in where I should be. I have a hard sided pop-up that is 2400lbs GVWR with a tongue weight of around 250lbs. It tows fine. Just a lot of gear hunting especially with high winds or elevation change. I love the truck, but coming from V8's, I have to get used to the extra effort they require. I agree. A weight distribution hitch would probably do wonders for smoothness.

 

Got these new emblems in the mail today. Pretty happy with how they look.
