What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

RCI is now 1,080 for the same rock sliders on my Tacoma. Ugh.

 

It looks like sliders are only 10% off right now; I think I got 20% a year ago. Who knows if they will repeat the sale or not; get on their mailing list as they do change things up throughout the year. Also I didn't get the top plate as I guessed it would hold more snow/ice during the winter. Sliders hold enough ice anyway.
Shipping is high on these things too. In fact if I picked them up at a R4T store 35 miles from the fab I'd have to pay shipping too. So I drove a little further myself.

 

Yeah. I have a feeling like they are doing 10% off now and they will do %20 off before the end of the year. Maybe not. Who knows!! I just hate to overpay and then a month from now they go down in price. Also, I live in KC and I guess they are having FedEx delivering the sliders. They are only charging 60.00 for that. Not bad at all.

 

Got waaaaay too good of a deal on a Roam case, ha. So much room for activities!

 

Tacoma education update:


If you can Cheez-Whiz two crackers together, you can already Weld.

 

$60 is crazy good; it's often well over $200 to ship big, long, heavy metal.

 

Finally bought the Rigid SAE 30” Driving Light Bar. Will share illuminated photos later after I get it wired how I want it. Overall really like how stealthy it looks - almost don’t realize it’s there until you pay more attention! Love Rigid products.

 

Can you cut that in half so we can verify the penetration?

 

Sweet! Stepbrothers……

 

That is an awesome deal for shipping! When I got mine there was a 15% discount and it basically paid for the shipping to CA. $945 grand total.

 

Picked it up on Wednesday. Tinted on Friday. 5100s Wheels and tires are ordered.

 

Those look cool but be careful if those are metal on the inside of the cap. They can rust and fuse with the stem.

Ask me how I know.

 

Welcome to TW!

Visually I’m going to have to ask that he feathers the toes, and theoretically speaking, the throat looks a tad undersized for 1/4” equal leg cheese filet.

 

I had no idea welding vernacular was so suggestive…

 

I first thought about the RCI sliders and almost pulled the trigger but sense RSG has a Black Friday deal 15% off, it was an easy decision to place an order. They are both great companies with some of the best products on the market , I just like RSG’s slider design better. The front and back are more finished and the mounting plate is beefyer . I’m also in Colorado so shipping is not an issue.

 

I just drove it

 

Maybe

I wonder what the Rockwell C-scale hardness test will tell us?

 

Huh
