What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

285/75/17

 

Fixed the infamous license plate glare.

 

All of it! Mostly the shifting. Drivability is much improved. MPG is improved. Useable torque is improved.
Installed Overland Tailor 7.0 w/ gear set. (Gear set holds 5th & 6th longer.) Drove a total of 250 miles on Saturday & averaged over 20 MPG for the whole trip.

 

Engine is breaking in!

 

Well dang, how did you do that?

 

Put a new to me, RCI 12in HD Bed Rack today.

 

Nice ride….a little fast for my taste…the Vstrom is more my speed…. Sport bikes have a way of making 100mph seem normal speed to me...

 

Nice astro turf.

 

Haha thanks.

 

Looks great!!
I'm thinking about getting the same Greenlane stump bumper (but with the hoop) and a winch.
Have you noticed any changes in the way your truck handles with the suspension you're running?
I've already upgraded to the TRD kit shocks. (aka Rebranded 5100's)

 

Curious you say that, but when the kids were little (it is a 1999 VFR) I would put one of them on the back and go for a ride.
Telling them to put their hands in my jacket pockets and hold on. up to 100mph we would go, on the entrance ramp, and still have room to merge at legal speeds. There was one ramp that was a tight arc. THAT was a thrill . at the edge... No wonder those kids turned out so fine! ;-)


The KLR is my "slow down" ride.

 

My parents were rear ended today (2 month old Taco) by a nice middle age lady, a local family attorney. The lady took full responsibility and reported the accident to her insurance shortly after. It's obviously not something anyone wants to deal with but at least the lady was respectful and apologetic for the incident. Now to deal with the repairs and so forth. My only concern is the truck was only two months old and had just turned 1k miles! The body shop better not report the incident to carfax because I don't wouldn't want my parents to take a hit on the value of their new truck.

 

Good grief. I'll fold on that.

 

Pro suspension on my Off Road.

 

Installed an Apogee Gen 3 rear bumper. I love it and only a 25 lbs gain over the stock hitch/bumper....

 

That looks good. Confirming the BSM and backup sensors work properly.

Thanks

 

No issues. BSM and backup sensors both working fine.

 

What unit is that? I’ve been looking for one.
