What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Some people love their truck differently than others.

 

looks like he needs a hug!

 

starts rotating tires

*A D D kicks in*

starts washing truck mid rotation


I see nothing wrong with it

 

LOL time to bust out the welding gloves. Those guys eat ticks so they’re good by me

 

would you mind loving my truck a little while you're at it?

 

Thats a new one! How the hell did he get in there? Looks like he was tired. Id get some thick gloves and grab him by the tail and relocate him to some wood. I recently had one under my deck and it tried to get at my dog when I let her out one day. Thankfully he scared my dog enough to send her running inside. I just pushed him away with a stick. I believe they can have rabies also so watch out for the mouth.

 

If trying to change the oil... that's the wrong filter.

 

I usually check both as long as I'm "under the hood" doing IFR (I'm Feeling 'Round for the hidden part). The air filter is usually the cleaner part of the oil and air job... I don't play 'possum while I'm under the truck, though I did see one too late in Indiana, but it was under the middle of the car as we passed so if it was playing possum it survived. It hadn't been flattened yet.

 

I read on the internet that the possum mod adds 10 hp.

 

Get some thick gloves and release him in your yard. Those guys are awesome—they eat all kinds of nasty critters, especially ticks!

 

Is there a chain store like Goodyear, Firestone, etc., that you guys recommend for an alignment?

 

Not bad for 105,000 miles and 7k USD.

 

Check engine light came on on the way home from work. Got home and pulled codes P0174 and P0171. A little research showed that the MAF sensor might be a likely culprit, plus it was do for a cleaning anyway. Cleaned it and went for a test drive. Check engine light came on again before the end of the block. Got out some brake cleaner to start checking for vacuum leaks. Once the hood was up and engine running, the leak was pretty easy to see and find.

The return from my oil catch can. The kit didn't come with any hose clamps and I didn't add any when I installed it. Added one. Took it for a test drive and all is good. Wish all check engine lights were thus easy to fix.

 

That's pretty neat. We don't have those in Hawaii.

 

Test fit new scs wheel and Yokohama tire (285/75-17). Still need a alignment and cmc.
Added rain gaurds and Cbi bed bars.

 

Changed the spark plugs, time over milage 7 years 28k

 

OK. New bumpers! Still have to install the fog lights and re-attach the GMRS antenna once the new mount comes in, but she's finished enough to post.

 

Like a Trunk Monkey for the Hood?

 

Ordered some Sylvania XtraVision headlight bulbs for the truck. Should be here tomorrow.
I'm content with the stock headlights so this should be a decent upgrade. Plus, whenever I get the funds to install a winch bumper, I'll also be installing a light bar so night driving on trails won't be an issue.

 

Your truck looks tiny next to that silver Ford.
