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

Fentanyl pretty common
easy to come across someone who needs it
rather have it than stand there like an idiot with hands in my pockets
they are small, and you can get one or two of them for free.

I'd definitely be curious if there's more you recommend given that LE in your PFP
thought about getting a reflective road triangle like my old car had
or road flares. I think Home Depot has a cheap pack of ignitable ones.
Crashes nearby are common. One was a fire. Other one guy pulled over to help and got hit by a car.
Have a couple more things not listed. Bracketeer each seat, Element E50, 5BC extinguisher (kinda wanted a 10, oh well)
plastic cuffs

I know medically there's gonna be a limitation on equipment based on user experience training. A veteran Corpsman is gonna have more stuff that they also know how to use.

 

Narcan.....interfering with natural selection since 2015.

 

Narcan?

 

You can carry in your State? Loaded, unloaded?

 

I mean if you have it it’s your call on what discretion you use if any
Per ER’s, who have to use it
They do, send people out the door, who then go repeat.

most states can. LE can. Or you get a permit.

 

Never know when you're gonna find someone's ODing

 

exactly.
You could be at or walking by a party. House in the neighborhood. Place in the city. Some kid takes something laced unconscious.
Maybe you know someone dealing with something like grief of a loss. Takes something they don’t know what’s in it to help fall asleep. Obviously not advisable but something that happens. An otherwise good person. Passes out.
There you go. You have free shit in your truck that at least solves the problem for that period of time. It can be replaced for free.
There’s many different scenarios.

 

I wish they made some similar to stop a hangover

 

Finally got around to lifting the truck. Before and after pictures attached.

Ironman foam cell pros with powder coated springs. Couldn’t do the neon green. SPC UCAs

2.75” front and about 3.5” rear

 

why does the turd gen community praise it

 

I just happened to have a bad one. One of the first builds of the first year of a new gen. Thought everything was fixed after 6-8 months. Dumped some mod money in it. Paid it off in 27 months. Dumped more mod money in it. Then got transmission flashed again. Each month drove it less and less frequently. Then another recall. Then reading horror stories of timing chain cover leaks and an occasional rear main seal failure. Then another recall. Next thing is I hit 5 years and oh shit the warranty is gone. Then paranoid and the continuous thought of should I sell it or should I keep it or how far can I trust it. Then market values started climbing. Then SOLD. Then yet another recall letter. Went back to 2nd gens. No more paranoid thoughts. No more recall letters. Finally PEACE.

 

A fishery biologist I worked with had been a Navy plane captain, and he told us that a pilot had told his ground crew that breathing oxygen will cure a hangover.
He also warned that it's not a long term solution; the hangover will return when that dosage fades...

 

Well I guess that's something

 

I believe most bugs were worked out starting in late 2018. What they never fixed is the slug 3.5 and the wonky automatic damnsmission. Now everyone just throws tune money in them so they run almost as good as the 2nd gen 4.0. With all of the issues I had, with only 25k miles on it, I felt better just letting it go and going back to the reliable 4.0. I always said there is a good reason the 4runner still used the 4.0. It is a better engine. The 3.5 in other vehicles was not detuned like the 3rd gen Taco. That is plainly evident by the base hp of those other 3.5 models. It was awesome at saving gas but, as factory (de)tuned and engineered, in stock trim it could hardly get out of it's own way. I didn't spend good money on a new Tacoma that must need a tune for it to run normal. I blame myself, partially, for not being more aggressive in my initial test drive. Having owned other gen's before I just assumed the power would be there when I needed it. I think my pre-gen 1987 22R had more get up and go than the 3.5.

I installed ironman 4x4 stage 2 lift tossed the old block lift. new roof racks coming soon.

 

Me likey! Had my driver's side set at 2.75 and the passenger side set to 2.5 for the taco lean and got 3" in rear with Dobinsons suspension and SPC UCA.

 

Nitrox is your friend. Divers trick helps to get those dives in the morning. Then back to driving again for the rest of the day.

 

When I was Active Duty AF, I was a Flight Engineer on the C-5. I would occasionally re-run my oxygen mask pre-flight because I "messed it up" just to get another minute and a half or so of 100% oxygen when I had partied a little too hard the night prior.
