What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

damn, too bad our trucks can't get that kind of mpg!

I was hoping they'd loan me a 3rd gen to beat on but there weren't many vehicles on the lot. saw 2 tacomas, 1 tundra, 1 4Runner and a handful of prius/camry/corolla's.

 

first windshield replacement. drove with the cracked original until i got comfortable allowing someone to replace it. i removed the cowl and wipers arms before i took it to the shop.

 

Very unique and very cool. Welcome to tw

 

Is that reverse taco lean?

 

Now day 5 and still has 16% charge, which theoretically would get me to this evening. They recommend charging at 15%, so I'm going to put it inside and charge. Can't say I'm mad at that at all

 

No

 

Definitely not, that’s awesome. I think a 500 would suit me more than enough. Plus a lot cheaper

 

Hauled 2400 pounds of flooring today. Truck did great! Blah blah blah 1000 pound gvw comments.

 

How is it riding now? I put a bunch of flooring in the back of mine and it bent the leafs. My shocks were completely bottomed as well though.

 

Haven’t unloaded it yet. I’ve got airbags though so should be good. I’ve had close to this much in it before.

 

My new bumper is supposed to be here today. Keep loading that sum bitch till your is dragging.

 

Sweet! You going to put it on today if it shows up?

 

I agree! Have to have a even balance of white/black. I have kicked around the idea of bronze wheels though... maybe in the future lol

 

Are they delivering to your place or to a shipping hub?

 

That the plan. Soon as I get it I’ll prep it and between coats work on the cutting truck and getting the bumper off. It’s been a really long day waiting

 

My wife’s work.

 

Thanks to the sage advice of randyfab.aka @EatSleepTacos ....16 inch 600 pound coils.... preload went from this, on 14 inch 700s...






To now just this.... and it rides like a dream..

 

So I got a little impatient waiting on a meso ultimate dome light so I improvised by busting up my old 3rd gen meso dome and putting it in my 2nd gen stock housing. After years of the ultimate dome in my 3rd gen, that I sold, I just got sick of that dull yellow dome light. Lost a few led's in the process, and had to do a little solder repair, but still better than stock. Will take and post a picture in this post after dark.

 

paid it off

 

Awesome feeling isn’t it. You just reminded me to check the payment schedule on mine. With all the extra principle payments I’ve been making, I’m halfway done paying mine off after 27 months.
