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

Your truck makes me miss my 13 MGM 2nd gen. I really love the look you've achieved! Seems much more modern with the newer TRD Wheels.

 

Gave it a much needed wash, then i replaced all my lug nuts with the proper extended thread lugs. I should have used these to begin with when I installed my aftermarket wheels. All the additional threads give me a little extra piece of mind.

 

Finished up the install of Joying 9 inch Head Unit, and wired up oem rear camera w/ AnytimeBackupCamera kit and front camera. And finally ran the power from my aux battery to panel in bed.

 

Clean radio setup man, also nice key fob. Did the Joying unit come with the wiring for the steering wheel controls? I ordered the head unit a week ago and have wheel controls on my 07 and want to make sure they can be used, I've also heard they have little to no instructions.

 

Yeah steering wheel controls connect through the harness, but 2014+ have more buttons so not all work on mine. They can be mapped to do what ever you want. Yeah no real install instructions, but it's pretty straight forward. You might have a plug on both sides that doesn't plug into anything, the harness is set up for multiple years.

 

Went to a local drive through car wash. Did recon to see how the bristles attack the front end and the side.

Thinking of testing out with a spare (broken) snorkel head....

Maybe make a video to see what happens and post for others who are like me and want to wash their truck off but are worried about the rollers damaging the snorkel.

 

Got ya… I couldn’t figure it out.. I’m an idiot

 

Which lug nuts did you use? Do you have a link? Thank you.

 

I haven't fit in an auto wash in a long time...miss that convenience

 

I'm way too paranoid to attempt that, afraid something will definitely get broken. In the past I was never happy with the results anyway, always felt kinda robbed too. But then again, I'm extremely OCD when it comes to our vehicles.

I would definitely be interested to see a video on this though lol

 

Picked up Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek at 265/70/17 to replace thr KO2's. Was really looking to stay with the KO2s but I picked these up thats a month old for $600 so I avoid paying $900 on the KO2s. Hope these work out well.

 

You're a mad man!! I don't even like walking around NYC I think my anxiety would get the best of me driving there.

 

Im in NJ and right across from NYC. Even though I previously worked there for 20years I say I am not as brave to go into NYC these days.

 

man, that is the METRA dash installation kit the one you got your pioneer installed? .. Thank you

Sorry editing.

That AC knos looks great, are those just remove and replace or any modification needed? ..

 

I love driving in Manhattan. Last time I was there I was in a quad cab F350 with a long bed. Everyone, including the cabbies, gets out of the way when you merge in that size vehicle. Everyone except this guy:

 

I’ll be honest, I have no idea. It’s been about 4-5 years lol! What I can tell you is, great fit and quality.

 

Beautiful truck man! What kind of lift and tires?

 

New overlays for the emblems with a little custom color pop

 

It's not that bad. Been down there twice with mine.

 

Got set of OEM Baja/Trail Team wheels I have been looking for, $225 for the whole set, now just find a place that can take the Cement Grey paint off and have them refinished.
