What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

And in his own driveway! Wouldove to hear what exactly happened....

 

Nah. That’s just Jersey.

 

Beautiful dog

 

Well, calzone runs count in my book, extra points if you eat calzones with Alfredo Sauce.

 

Wow .. that damage was from your driveway?

Bummer

 

12volt solutions remote start kit should be here today. Installing tomorrow

 

No damage to front skid plate.
No damage to fuel tank skid plate.

You got some splainin’ to do!

 

Black Friday purchases, installed today.

 

Thanks! Basically just ditch or parking lights wired into the dome light

 

Installed the cubby left side of the bed today.

 

Today some cheap fake leather AutoTrend seat covers for the win, and keeps the real leather underneath looking nice! This big lug (and best co-pilot ever), will destroy a set under a year, jumping in and out after mountain biking, hiking, etc. I thought I would try some red accent this time, I think i like it. Definitely dog approved!!

 

Nice work! What's the part # for that cubby? And did it come with a template, or did you have to do some inspecting and measuring before drilling?

 

This is what I used to install mine: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...side-bed-storage-cubby-on-2019-models.818770/

I do have some splainin' to do, to my wife lol.
you guys kill me haha!

I live in a working-class area of NJ; this is how a lot of the houses look.

The black truck is a guy that I have working on my bathroom. I have a few things going on with the house so cementing the driveway is lower on the list.


Getting my son a car, the S60 was high on my list as I'd rather not have a new driver using the other, more expensive vehicles. He's smacked the hood already of the S60, so my concern has already been proven reasonable.
I didn't have a parking spot for it so we pulled the fence down and I drive the Tacoma over what was previously landscaped, it will eventually be excavated and cemented over.


As far as the damage to the skid plate...my previous post on this thread was the replacement of the skid plate. I'm thinking of more extensive underbody coverage, but I can't help but think that the money would be better spent just cementing the parking spot in the first place.
The new, thicker skid plate is definitely holding up better than the factory sheet metal!

I figured that I have time as my youngest is a year away from needing a vehicle, driving in this could have been my excuse for getting her an FJ or 4Runner. This repair has caused me to reconsider leaving the parking spot like this.


We live and we learn, some a little slower than others.

If you guys would like to see it for yourselves, I'd gladly take a beer for my time! I may put you to work though as driveshafts don't replace themselves lol.

 

Bought it.
'21 TRD Sport, Access Cab, 6MT, 17K miles.
Wife says, "are you gonna sell the 1st gen?"
I just hug her. She knows.

 

Made a new mid height bed rack, then decided to make some tonneau cover bracket adapters.
Not worried about opening the cover, I can easily reach everything that goes in the bed.

 

Got an AJT cup holder over Black Friday. My water bottle was actually quite loose in the holder, so I went to Hobby Lobby and got some 2mm foam sheet and added some padding. Water bottle fits nice and snug now. (Nalgene 32 oz)

 

'22 made 22k today.

 

Foam keeps stuff from rattling away n there too. I’m jealous. Need one for the manual trans.
