    Looks good!

    Watch that air pump in the ammo can. I had a recovery strap and a few tie down straps stolen out of the ammo can while I was in a grocery store. Assholes even stole the lid of the ammo can, lol.

    Yesterday filled my 2007 Tacoma for the second time. With the grocery store discount I got 40ȼ off a gallon, so 'only' paid $4.69 9/10 a gallon. Miles per gallon a bit better than the first tank, this time 22.7 mpg. My commute is about 50/50 highway and backroad hills. Along with that several around town trips. Very pleased with the results. It's only about 2 mpg less than the Honda CRV I traded in - but a lot more comfortable and fun to drive.

    Ever since Leitner released that new design, this is all I can see when I look at it.

    I actually will be selling the tires next month. Thinking about $600 for all 5. Cooper ST Maxx 315/75/16. Tires have ~43k on them. Still decent tread left

    I only have one bronze wheel. Bought it separately, and when new stock was available, bronze wasnt in the selection :pout:this was a few years ago

    OME Lift
    A local Tw member installed it for me. It is an improvement as far as on road and off road ride.
    so far so good. A huge improvement over stock.
    This is my third Toyota with an OME lift so I am a little bias. It is probably not the best performing lift considering adjustable coil overs and reservoir shocks but I feel it is the best bang for the buck.

    I can’t either, I’m just glad I finally got to make that comparison for someone else

    While routing the wiring for my new raptor lights and tapping into the low beam fuse, I just realized we have “low profile” mini fuses, rather than regular mini fuses. The tap technically fit into the slot, but it easily pops right out. Just ordered some of the correct “low profile” taps from Amazon.
    For what it’s worth, I credit my newbie mistake to never having blown a fuse in my truck since going from a first gen to a second gen. They look the same when looking down into the fuse blocks

    Fair enough. But it’s worth it. Camper shell plus RTT was killing the sheet metal on my bed sides. Turns out these off road trucks are pretty flimsy off road. I needed a bed rack that bolts to the frame. So shadow puppet or not I’m psyched.

    It’s bolted in there. It would be a pain in the ass to steal.
