What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Indeed, gets a lot of touches. I read another TW poster stating that his experience was they showed no deterioration after some months of usage. From just the look and feel it doesn’t appear nor feel any different than what it was from factory.

Took about an hour.

 

Currently, it powers my roof rack lights (which I leave on for hours at camp once it gets dark), air compressor, USB, interior topper lights (but am moving to RTT setup, so will power bed lights). No fridge currently, but this panel could easily power that too if I wanted.

 

With the help of my son, we did the CMC on our 2021 Army Green Off Road so we can fit 285/70R17 M/Ts on without a lift (b/c the front components are on back-order).

I love this website, the brothers and sisters on here have some great ideas and they always are eager to help out a fellow Taco owner with their ideas and finds. Good luck on your upgrades, don’t forget pics. Cheers!

Perfect conditions for... Fog lights.

 

Gotta love that color scheme.

Fyi, Amber also works well in snow storms.

 

Very nice looking truck.

 

Yellow wavelength is what humans see the best and at furthest distance. That's why yellow is the best lighting color.

Gotta go to the beach before summer ends.

 

Who cleaned it up?

 

Yes, lots of great people here! Very thankful for finding this site....Thank you, I definitely will!!

 

Nitrogen will not expand/contract with heat/cold, so your tires will remain at a more constant pressure - helps wear, and less issues with the TPMS.
