What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looked back and reminded myself I don’t need a truck payment/4th gen.

 

Gave it a thorough wash yesterday. So much salt this winter. Did some iron decon on the wheels too.

 

^^ This ^^
The dealership did this to me when I took the Taco in for its one (and only) complimentary oil change. I started driving home and thought WTH? I checked my TPMS and it was reading 44PSI. Why they did that is beyond me. I thought the tires would blow before I got home so I stopped and let out some air using the fingernail method.

 

The vehicle in front of me was a new Expedition and it was pretty clean before it went through the tunnel. I’ve never had an issue on previous vehicles. This car wash has the long vertical brushes that move side to side. Would explain the vertical scratches where the hood meets the fender.

 

It sucks, I only use the automatic car washes for a couple of months. I use a foam sprayer and Meguiars gold wash and a chamois cloth when it’s above 40 degrees.

 

Installed new front fog lights from Tacoma Lifestyle

That unfortunately is not unusual. When they give you a "complimentary" anything the work is usually done by a not very experienced laborer not a licensed trained tech. When they do the multi point check they usually just attach an air gun from a compressor to tires and pump air until it reaches the setting on the gun. Same for lug nuts. I always check those and other things if any vehicle goes to any shop for work not just dealerships.

 

I'm sure its been done. I've had some coilovers with seriously frozen threads.

 

I also heard that you're currently having a sale on a dozen homemade strawberry cupcakes can you confirm?

 

No you don't

You've got another 10-15 years of trouble free driving.

 

My guess is I have another 228,000 miles before I need to make a decision on my next vehicle. That's maybe 15 years so I have plenty of time. I'm hoping for a flying car.

 

i eat everything thats made........profits are down - body weight is up

 

Installed Garmin Mini 3 dashcam. Taking a long road trip so wanted something plug and play with just the mirror power cable adapter.
I didn’t want to end up stranded somewhere and find out that using either the constant power or parking mode cables drained my battery.

 

I'm looking at the same Garmin for my Tacoma. Appreciate any updates and opinions, good and bad. Thanks

 

Will do.
At least 2500 miles of mixed roads should provide some good data.

 

Trd Pro grille swap w the tss sensor

 

Our local self serve has lukewarm water and a backing wall for winter, I can get away with spraying down to 14 degrees, anything below that, the soap freezes too fast, especially if the wind is blowing.

 

Yep everytime I am like well maybe I see one in person and like nah not worth the payment and usually I’m like hurry up and take my money.

 

there are 12 cup holders in the tacoma
