What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

havent driven mine yet but a friend and i did this last year and it is noticeable

 

the wait times for the mavericks are atrocious. the last i check they are out of sign up for 2023 models. so they have to wait till the 2024 models allocation opens.
so most of the people who found an allocation are buying the vehicle maybe driving to another Dealer and getting a big phat check making profits.
people are going mad for the little truck that can do 50mpg hybrid or 35-40 in the ecoboost.

 

Dang. Maybe I should start reserving vehicles everywhere....

 

This morning I noticed that someone backed into me. It happened sometime over the past week and I’m not sure how much this would cost or if I should start a claim? Anybody have any insight for me?

 

Dang... that sucks.... My truck came with the same kind of mark though so if you find out let me know

 

Just buy a new cap and fix it yourself or use this to get a metal rear bumper. The insurance rate increase and possible deductible will be more than the repair

 

Bummer, same thing has happened to me.

I just put bumper caps over it

 

Absolute best spot to get damaged at in the back. Those caps are individually replaceable.

 

I asked about reserving a hybrid vehicle (not a Tacoma of course) at several Toyota dealers. After they stopped laughing they told me they are no longer taking reservations since they have more reservations than they expect to get in more than a year.
It's probably safe to say that those who want a Tacoma and those who want a Maverick are probably two very distinct groups.

 

Just happened to me…all the body shops around here are $800-1000 for the repair. Said they would take 3 days

 

Its hard to think of two midsize trucks further opposite from eachother

 

Dang those caps are only 80$ at the most on eBay for a set. That's awesome. Now the hardest part will be deciding if I want chrome or black ones...

 

Put on the step bars yesterday and the tonneau this morning

 

Yikes!! https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/pts/d/san-martin-2020-toyota-tacoma/7545563598.html

Well 2 day shipping with prime. And a hell of a lot cheaper

 

You forgot to mention, drive the truck to 88 MPH.

 

Got a good Amazon link?

Now you have a great reason to install that steel rear bumper you've had your eye on. If someone backs into a steel bumper, the damage is done to their vehicle and not yours.
