What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

What they need to understand is that they are invisible to other vehicles sharing the road.

 

So you both paid $5k/ea and you have no idea what for??

 

sweet looking ride!

 

Yeah so if you have both a cab rack and a bed/top rack that are the same height you should mount your accessory on just one of the racks. If your accessory overhangs the other rack you need to use a mount that raises it at least one inch to avoid any interference with rhe other rack. Prinsu and others offer the mounts:

He explained it to me ( us ) but it seems I have forgotten. I know when we bought them ( on the same day ) I said to my self “ yea…I’m not gonna do maintenance on my own car “. ( I drove a car for 26 years before I got this truck. I did EVERYTHING on it. Timing belts, transmission replacement, etc ) I’m done working on cars other than bolt on accessories and when he sold us on it, I was game.

 

I have that can, it’s very hard to mount cause of the idiotic way the mount is designed: once you take the mount off the can and mount it to the firewall there’s no way to attach the can back to the mount cause of the complete lack of thought they put into the hardware. I had to make an additional bracket to go to the factory bracket to bolt it to my truck.

You both bought new in 2019? Have you not used these plans for service?
If not you should look through your paperwork for these contracts to see exactly what they cover, hopefully you still have them.

 

BS. I was both, and saw the best and worst from both.

 

It's softer now, yes.

That's what I was thinking. Before I signed papers at the dealership I asked a question about EVERY single item on the list. I'm sure I annoyed the salesman & finance guy, but so what? It's my money.

I even re-added up all the numbers while I was in the finance office. I annoying said "No offense, but I'm going to double check your numbers and work before I sign anything."

 

We bought in Jan 2019. We both have less than 30000 miles on each. We have done the regular services at every 5k miles. We were both told we would get free service for 2 years/25K miles. The last service she was told that would be the last free one. But she paid for the service plan. My understanding AT THE TIME was that oil changes and tire rotations were covered under the service plan AFTER the 2yr/25K was over. Maybe who ever told her that was her last free one didn’t know she had the service plan?? I don’t know. But she actually called Toyota and spoke with someone and they told her they would call her back. That was 2 weeks ago. On a side note the last time I had my truck serviced I was gonna ask them to change wiper blades. But the service people were not even talking to the customers after dropping the truck off. I was gonna ask them about it then but never got to talk with anyone.

 

I did ask the guy about everything And he explained it to me fully and I THOUGHT I understood what he was selling. And it sounded good at the time.

 

Completed footwell lights install. Went blue. Came out great!!

 

Closest thing I watched was videos from @ClassyTacos on YouTube. My wiring gets a little easier since I have an Auxbeam switch panel.

 

Installed @oostroma s 3rd gen dash top ram mount. Super easy to install, well made, and supports a local Canadian 10/10

 

Do you have a link to the light bar you used? I like all the functions of the one you have installed! Looks noice…

 

Sorry, can’t seem to attach the link from Amazon since it goes straight to the app on my phone. Here is the description. Hope this helps.
As for a wiring harness, I just made my own with an inline fuse.

Appreciate it! Still on the fence about tire size, though.
