What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Crazy how the price is went up! Like others said, I only paid about 80 bucks 2 1/2 years ago. Maybe try searching online and see if any dealers have better prices with free shipping. I know there were threads on here when I got mine and they helped me find the best deal.

You can find them cheaper, that’s just the 1st result in a google search. I paid $140 from my local dealer but I had to order it online and pick it up, if I walked in to buy it it would have been twice the price. They claimed it was some promo Toyota runs on the web sales.

 

Always a great feeling

 

Totally. Especially with the kids goldfish and crumbs spread everywhere most days.

 

Pretty they make quality stuff, I have been eyeing their sliders and front bumper. Post some pictures once you get them bolted on

 

Hopefully it doesn't rain tomorrow so I can get them mounted after work.
I will definitely post some pictures on here when I do.

 

I'm sorry, did you say aluminum?? I've never even heard of that being an option for sliders. I'm guessing they're pretty light duty then no?

 

Yeah, it's called remove the dealer's 100% markup by taking them out of the loop.

 

They are heavy duty enough to support the weight of the truck, I've seen a few videos of people slamming rocks with them. But not heavy duty enough to be hitting them all the time.
Pretty much the same as steel skids vs aluminum, for me I don't wheel hard enough to justify the weight of steel armor but I still need something just incase. I have come close to hitting my side steps a few times. And have a few scratches in my aluminum skids but no dents.

So you get to push all of her buttons and she can't touch one of yours?

 

Got my SmartCap today, definitely loving it so far!

 

Some of us don't need to bolt up 400 pounds of steel front / sides / rear to enjoy 4 wheel drive.

 

Oh I get that, I'm not huge on heavy armor myself, but sliders are one of those things I feel like should be steel. I smack mine all the time and I am not a heavy rock crawler

 

My favorite shell!

 

Oil change, wash, interior vacuum and detail. Also found an old bottle of 303 protectant. I had just enough to coat the tonneau cover, bed rails and fender flares.


Now I can dirty it up again next week when the dog goes for car rides.

 

Nice! Similar checklist for me today too

 

I got Clazz hands...

 

Replaced the PCV valve. Big thanks to team oil drop for their videos. I would have never known about that upkeep procedure, and it gave me a excuse to get under the hood and torq some bolts.

Accidently dropped a wrench on the positive battery terminal and sparks were a flying. Scared the S out of me

 

Super nice!!

 

yoo im actually looking for a bed matt too, any ideas?
