What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Not bad for $160 at Costco. Are you planning on using a float charger to keep it topped off or just not going to worry about it?

 

I’ll probably won’t. Or I’ll just have it reflash my KDMax Pro+ tune…

 

WHERE DOES THIS WRAP ON? GRILL?

 

I was diggin those graphics on your truck until I realized it was just a reflection.

 

On the front grill emblem that the TSS MMW radar sits behind on 2018+ Tacos without the pro grill.

Here's an example with a different design.

lolz

 

OH O I SEE NOW. IM LOOKING FOR A PRO GRILL ONE THAT GOES ON THE CENTER HORIZONTAL STRIP IF YOU GET WHAT IM SAYING...LOL

 

FN wheels were installed today

 

Kinda like this

 

I’m intrigued by this post as I’m looking to mount most of the controllers and electrical related components on a vertical mount, albeit on the bed side, either lower or higher.

I had some questions for the group. I currently have a Powerswitch to manage some of the current and future wiring, mounted in the typical engine bay fuse box area, and looking to do a secondary, maybe even a tertiary setup in the future.

What would be the most efficient game-plan? If this sounds challenging to answer, you can understand my confusion. Or just comment, and advise on my future buying/assembling process.

I have a Bluetti EB55 for light duty in the near-term, charging off the rear inverter. That can power at least a fridge, off-truck camp lights, etc.

Perhaps mid-term, AGM secondary in a tray on the passenger side engine bay. Run requisite wiring between batteries, then back again to switch/relays, etc. Add fuse, MI-ACR in between— done?

Mid-term-future: Add hood solar,, MPPT (BCDC1225?) allow for parallel chaining future panels, connect to secondary.

Future-state (keep or remove secondary?) run wiring back to bed, LiFePO battery/ies, charge controller, MPPT, panels.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Is this guy on here?

 

My next project will likely be a gx460 but that may be some years away. The 24 year model will be a total redesign I hear

 

Wait wait wait, the check charging system message is due to the battery tie down? I replaced the oem battery with an agm about a year ago but still get that message, also no acid in the compartment

 

Lol. Not because of the tie down. I should have paused that sentence.
I also check the new batt voltage after a drive and it’s at 14.1 volts.

 

Gave it its first dent/dents. I bumped into the black shelves which knocked the other shelves into the taco! All my fault. Not gonna buff out. At least it's on the passenger side so I don't have to see it every time I get in.

 

I decided that I wanted a bed mat, but wasn't willing to pay over $100 for one. I went to Tractor Supply and was looking at a stall mat 4' x 6' for $54 dollars, but it was very thick and I didn't think I could cut it with a razor knife. The person helping me said that they sell 1/4" rubber mat by the foot. It is 49" wide and as long as you want, for $ 7.99/foot. I bought 6' for my long bed, did some trimming around the wheel wells and tie downs, and now I have a bed mat that keeps things in place for $ 48.

 

all of the pics did not get attached.

 

this looks awesome but why do they wanna charge me tax when my state doesnt have sales tax...

 

squadrons are such nice lights. How you like the antenna mount? I feel like I'd want it in the rear of the truck so just curious why you picked the front

 

Don't you pay tax on items from different states?
