What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Is that roof rack OEM? I've been thinking about getting that type of roof rack. Nice to see it on another black Tacoma for visualization.

 

Installed a new rough country Hard Low-Profile Bed Cover | Toyota Tacoma 2WD/4WD (16-23) total cost $690.00

unfortunately it’s going back. So many quality issues.

1. Massage z shaped scratch on middle panel. Attempted cover up at the factory.
2. Rubber weather seals were cut too short and installed poorly
3. Adapter rail (right side) bent
4. Top weather seals (up by the cab) bent and had holes
5. Stripped screws
6. Gaps all around edges

 

I have the OTT and love it !!!
Best mod to date right of above the lift and tires

 

Damn! Hope they make it right or fully refund your money.

 

Omg that’s horrible and sorry you had to deal with this kind of quality control, or should say lack of. I have a Bakflip and really like it.
Something you should consider imo.
They make great table tops to

 

Man these look sharp

 

Thanks, that’s what my first impression was when I saw them on the truck.

 

Yeah I was disappointed and frustrated. I really want an OEM cover, I really like the look and it’s nice that they have to Tacoma badge. I’m having a rough time finding one in Massachusetts

 

what size did you go with?

 

265/70-16 I can’t wait for it to snow now!

 

Swapped out the original OEM battery after 76,000 miles / 7.5 years. No pics 'cause everyone knows what a battery looks like. Also lubed the fuel door and hood latch with lithium grease while I was there.

 

I know the feeling a while back I bought a factory TRD skid plate from a Toyota dealer out of state. Received a return with scratches, a bent bolt and you could tell the bolts had been wrenched on. Looks like someone tried to install it and didn’t know what they were doing and then returned. The dealer made it right and even credited me the high 60 or 70 shipping rate. Sent me a new one and everything worked out. Ended up only paying like 360ish to my door if I remember correctly.
But yeah initially I was pretty upset . Can’t even imagine for you to install and then uninstall your bed cover because of the issues you’ve had. I was furious with only what happen to me ..

 

Looking good

 

You could have provided a picture of the fuel door.

 

Are those steel bumpers worth it? Like is it sturdy or its just cosmetic

 

I had the fluid film applied today.

 

Oil change. Mobil1 0x20, filter, 54987 miles.

 

I want to do a radiator flush fill this weekend, anyone have a good link to getting it done cleanly and efficiently?
