What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

yeah product licensing fees and the flash program arent cheap. I paid $300 for my tune, and was informed i can reach out to the guy at any time in the future to make adjustments or flash back to stock, all at no charge. I of course mentioned that i'd bring a 6 pack at the very least haha.

I will say that those $300 are probably the best i've spent on the truck thus far. Improved MPG, confident throttle at 70+ mph (for overtaking if needed), and elimination of gear hunting at high speeds and an incline. i go the "mid" tune which plays nice in the city when i want it to, and if i push the ECT button, it actually has the "high" tune's maps pre-loaded to kick in. Throttle response is great. I've chirped tires lol.

 

R4T actually has little bumper caps you can purchase for $150 rather than cutting into your stock bumper.

Not really something i've done to the truck directly, but i put in an order at Runnin 4 Tacos over the weekend! Should be here thursday, and I'll be lookin forward to some work over the weekend.

Hoping i can figure out a way to wire the backlights for my roof-mounted BD-S8 40" to the raptor lights in the grille so that they come on at the same time. Might just pop them into the SP 9100 and have them programmed to turn on when the truck starts.

i also ordered the

$659 SP-9100 8-Switch Panel Power System With Concealed Mounting Hardware

SP-9100 mounting bracket for in the engine bay, and the mount for the buttons in the truck from SDHQ.

 

Looks like that is what he has installed.

 

Super nice!

 

Nice! I see that TRD intake too..

 

Had grand plans to change the lower shock bushings on my Kings but didn’t realize the replacement bushings needed additional spacers. Feeling pretty dumb today and now I get to do it all over again when the right parts arrive.

 

Bought more goodies this morning from @FreshMexicanTaco.

I'm curious to see how their push button looks in blue.

 

Hit up Luxury Tint on Elm Street in Murrieta. The owner's name is Rey, and he's a fellow Tacoma owner (you'll see his "mystic" wrapped Tacoma on the corner of Jefferson and Elm with a sign pointing toward the shop). The do amazing work. I've had 8 vehicles tinted here over the past 11 years. They do awesome work, and their customer service absolutely can't be beat. Best of all, they have the best prices in the whole valley. You won't regret it! Tell him Joe with the white Tacoma sent you (I was just in there about 2 weeks ago having a strip installed on my new windshield that had to be replaced after it was cracked by a rock).

 

Looks awesome! I've been trying to find a perfect solution for a cab-mounted awning, and this looks like a winner. Do you have any photos with the awning folded up? Trying to see the size on the truck while stowed.

Consider it done. Veteran of an across-state-lines custody battle. Nasty.

 

SCOOPY DOOOO!

 

No brother, Canadian and American people are basically the same people. You're always welcomed up here!, especially in Western Canada!
Funny thing is that Western part of the States is like Eastern part of Canada to us...if you get my drift?!

 

So.... umm.... yeah... hehe... about that... works now. DOH!!!

 

What molle panel is that?

 

In response to a fumoto valve post earlier. I like them because its simple but they don't have a magnet and the magnet is there for a reason to catch those little shavings. I would rather they be caught then float around.
