What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Very nice looking truck.

 

Really wanted a Backflip MX4 but it's $1900 CAD after tax. The Bison is similar and was $767 CAD after tax with free shipping. Seems solid and looks decent.

 

Spiker hood struts installed.

 

I Added the Spikers to mine about 2 weeks ago. Love them!

 

lol I think it’s Tesla’s cybertruck, isn’t it?

 

I didn’t think about the similarity but yeah I can see that now that you mentioned it!

 

I know I base all of my financial decisions on nostalgia. That’s why my life’s goal is to move into the Simpsons house

 

Hood struts should have come stock.

 

Agreed!

 

I like those. The hood on my truck is freaking heavy. If it were to fall you would lose some fingers, geez. Are those hard to install ?

 

They are not difficult to install and Spiker gives great instructions with them. Lots of install vids on YouTube for them as well. That said, I bought my Dad some Sokietech no drill hood struts for his Taco last year and he loves them.

 

Tbh the mx4 is not worth its price. It should be about $500 cheaper

 

PIAA Si-Tech Wiper Blades. I, somehow, managed to pick up a sharp object under my wipers while I was wheeling at the mall. It knicked the blade and caused a blurry streak that would not go away. Too bad as I liked the style of the OEM wipers. :[

 

Toyota sells just the inserts...and they're cheap.

 

Great to hear !! Love mine also and it was like getting a totally different truck.

 

FACTS!! And this allows you to reuse the OEM housing. Best of both worlds!

 

I remember that contest. I think it was repainted and later sold.

Glad I kept them! Thanks!

 

I had to relearn the old adage "If you want something done right you have to do it yourself" dropped my truck off for the leaking front corners of my camper shell. Needless to say after picking up my truck and not having the time or energy to explain why I'm unhappy I'll just do it myself and not spend anymore money with this business.
