What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Was finally able to swap my OEM TRD Off Road wheels for new 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro wheels today. Had to wait quite a while for the caps to arrive as they seem to be in short supply. Turned out great and I love how they look with cement.

 

Day two of my Tacoma, on the epic drive home, 952 miles, there was a yeti in the road True story. The truck that lost it was pulled over about a mile up the road

 

Good 2 hear no damage to taco.

 

These rip away bags are the best. It’s the only I could find that does that surprisingly. I have 2 in the bed (red for med black for randoms)

 

I’m still trying to catch up- but that was a productive time out you had… I’ll have mine up when I’m thread current but don’t think I did as much as you.

I was wondering how come some ppl were saying the opener only works with truck on but I know mine can anytime. Since I park outside this might be something I need- to look into

 

I’ll keep reading for the update video because I was thinking of getting that element for in can because of size

 

I know there was a question of whether or not the power wire actually had power in the later models. If the wire had power it would work whether on or off. I specifically used the harness that used the switched power so that mine was off when the vehicle was off. Didn't check to see if the the power wire actually had power or not.

 

Tested it on 25 May. Posted the results later that week. I was not impressed at how it performed. Will not buy another one.

 

just bought my truck last week, and it has this same mount. I figured the PO did some sketchy stuff in the truck, but makes WAY more sense to have a dash cam!

 

Thanks for the knowledge drop! I had no idea!

 

How did you attach it?

 

Mine is a 18 and has the mount. Didn’t know it came there. Interesting.

 

Got my Waterport Weekender yesterday. Now just need the UpTop Bravo to get here so I can mount it. Going to be a busy weekend.

 

Scored a bed mat yesterday for the price of 5 tacos(the food kind)!!! One of our trade-ins had one so I asked our UCM what it'd take to for it to "fall out of" the back. He said- "Tacos from Chandos?". Deal!!!!!!

 

There is a mod to turn off the plate light when in reverse only (of course there is)

 

TRD Pro wheels installed with the black lugs and black wheel locks. went up to 265/75/16

 

Buddy of mine a couple years ago had like 3k miles on his 2016 Tacoma and was driving down a rural road and a guy pulling a trailer lost a 5 gallon bucket of roofing nails (on my mothers life I swear it) 4 flat tires and had at least a half dozen nails in each one. I don't think I have ever seen him so pissed off.

I've seen some wild stuff for sure while driving. For some reason I see a lot of A frame and extension ladders laying on the highway and always crunched or bent... feel bad for the vehicle that takes one of those out. My dad hit the tank of a toilet a few years back while driving the 405 in LA, came off a trailer going to the dump and the car in front of him swerved to miss it and it was dead in his path. The front end of his SL550 was tweaked to the tune of about $12k.

 

I narrowly avoided a double fly 24ft ladder once during a snow storm on 395. That would have been a wild ride to hit.
