Northern Virginia Roll Call

This was last a last minute call for me. I spent Saturday washing and cleaning our modes of transportation. (They needed it!) I figured since it was clean, I'd check it out. They will have a few more before the cold and snowy sets in. If I see one, I'll post it to the group. Might make a fun road trip to roll in together.

 

Asking 26k but I am willing to negotiate. It's an automatic.

Here's the photo gallery I am putting together, should have all the exterior pics up once I finish giving the exterior a good detail.

My son would have loved this. Thanks for the photos.

 

Exterior pics are up for those interested. Sale thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...off-road-4x4-auto-4-0-with-trd-s-c-va.776583/

 

What is up 3rd Gen Taco peeps...I'm heavily considering getting a Tune done on the truck and am leaning toward the Overlander Tailor Tune and found a Tuner in Orange, VA. He stated he was willing to meet me in Richmond, and if I knew others that would want to tune to reach out to (y'all) them and let him know if we wanted to coordinate a tuning day between those of us interested.

Figured since most of the VA activity is on this thread, I'd see if anyone was interested, as I'm willing to make the meeting spot closer to the F-burg/NOVA outskirts, both because why get a Turd Gen tuned and not be able to test various grades of hill climbs (seeing how long 3rd runs, as well as the ability to "effectively" delete 5th as an overdrive...how that actually pans out and feels).

Feel free to PM or reply on here if you have any interest...I know there's a now locked thread with folks real world input comparing KDMax variants and the OTT tunes...anyways here's the comparison thread, as well as the links to the Overlander Tailor Tune guys and the local VA tuner (there's another up I believe in Ocean City, MD)

 

For anyone interested in restoring a RH drive Land Rover Defender: https://www.eagleautomotives.com/inventory/land-rover/defender/4892/#1500071984533-9a98f7ed-2155

 

Don't you mean if you hate yourself and would like to buy a disgustingly overpriced vehicle? Or maybe the prices went up after I stopped looking. Used to be able to get a reasonably restored version for that kind of coin.

 

Wifey just had this pic sent to her from a friend out around Winchester (Greenwood rd). Happened a little while ago. Be safe out there peoples.

 

Pretty impressive storm damage.

 

That's about two miles from me. 21 poles down.

 

Holy crap

 

Drone footage from the sheriff department.

 

If anyone has questions about their taco or any other engine JamesT is the man. He disassembled my Maggie SC and fuel rail and reinstalled in less than 6 hrs total. He designed and assembled his own fuel rails to provide fuel to all 6 cylinders simultaneously. Oem configuration does a linear delivery cylinder 1 then 2 then 3 then 4 then 5 and finally 6. His provides 1-3 and 4-6 by having two feeds. He's in Nova and I've never seen a more impressive twin turbo 3rd gen taco. The engine not only looks completely different, but it also has the most power I've ever experienced. The Maggie SC with Tune has nothing on this setup! Anyway, he also designed is own fuel rail and it's been kickass in my truck so far. I'm incredibly impressed with his knowledge and ability (more than any mechanic I've ever known). Pics of course!!

(This was the test cut.)

 

PM’d

 

Who drove down route 340 earlier today heading towards luray on a Tacoma adventure with 3 others?

 

What is the cost associated with this their website States 400 but it's also lacking written down numbers except the dyno graph claiming like 20 plus horsepower again.

 

We were on 340 for a little bit yesterday- played golf at Caverns Country Club, behind Luray Caverns. I think I saw @Casper66 on our way out of Culpeper - if it was, the trucks is looking A+ As always.

 

May have been me around Culpeper we were headed to Nags Head. Oh yeah I remember seeing your truck I tried to wave. Good looking truck! There’s getting to be more and more around Culpeper. I think I saw you on 522 that was right near my house
