What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I'm hoping I'll be able to unsee this in a few days!

 

I added the glare blockers before I upgraded the lights because it's a design flaw that makes the backup camera work like crap even with the stock bulbs. A couple bucks worth of plastic and 3M tape, or a couple strips of duct tape fixes it.

I later upgraded to the LED lights because, well, I just felt like it. No actual performance improvement or any other crap like that. I just wanted to, and the glare blockers still do their job.

 

no spacers. I have the Eibach 1.5” pro springs combined with the Westcott Trd Pro fox perch lift. Have me a total of 3” of lift on a stock front end.

do you want front and side of the truck or of the CMR?

 

Which lights did you buy? I bought the cheap lights off Amazon and have already replaced 3 that failed within 6 months.

 

I have a stock 2020 access cab that I recently bought and added eye bolts to the rear driver's side back panel for tie offs.

It's a simple thing, but very handy.
The eye bolts are found at:

Laugh now, buy a new tacoma soon. By 2025 you won't have a "non-hybrid " option. I don't know that, I don't work for toyota.. but wake up and look around.. we are all buying dinaours

The new tundra electric assist has almost twice our towing, twice our hp twice our torque. Better ground clearance and better interior.. oh did I mention it beats tacoma at miles per gallon?


A few trucks have had wastegate issues, some have had window sealing issues.. but its not a ford.. and solar octane looks crazy amazing

 

As long as they still have a stick shift I'll consider it. If they don't produce what I want when I get back from Hawaii and I'm ready to buy a truck again, I'll recall the words of Tech N9ne: "If you don't like my new shit well then, fuck it, go buy my old shit."

EDIT: lol after seeing your edit, counter point to your pros about the Tundra: It's also massive, poor forward visibility due to the massive expanse of hood that completely obscures anything shorter than 4ft for the first 20 feet depending on the height of the driver (and most people I've seen behind the wheel of any fullsize truck looks like a kid that stole their dad's truck these days), and the most egregious offense of all, it has no stick shift option.

(A mention just to pop the notification: @G2.M6 )

 

Both if you don’t mind. Thanks again!

 

Took out the factory exhaust and installed the MBRP exhaust that dumps at the rear axle……

 

Installed my spiker engineering single hood strut, meant If you have a after market CAI etc

 

Traded it for a new one!

 

Lol… what made you trade it? The scoop?! Color?! Trans?!

 

The fact that they gave me more then I payed for it new, Transmission, color and premium package! This SOB was HARD to find!

 

Yeah. Makes sense, I understand the 6mt’s are hard to come by. I waited six months for one to show up and didn’t even get that one… dealership emailed me and said they had a similar one that hit the lot, don’t think I’ll ever sell it because it was such a pain to find.

 

Get a video of start up and rev for me. I wanna hear that baby purrrrrr...

 

Personally, I want mine as dim as possible. LED not needed.

 

And that's perfectly alright. There really isn't any good reason to change the bulbs. The stock bulbs still shine on the backup camera, which is the entire problem the glare blockers and wiring harness are designed to alleviate. It annoyed me enough to spend 7 bucks to fix it.

 

I tried to upload my video, but no dice…….any advice on how I can?
