What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks just as good on Long Island as it does in Virginia

 

Yes they do, they love the heat. I had a whole row along the fence 20ft tall (pinks, reds, whites). It's nearly impossible to kill those and bugs hate them. You can hack the heck out of them and they grow back like weeds.

 

Sure does

 

Paid off my truck and house loan

 

Damn how good does that feel?

 

They’re not the same are they? Just checking (my son may/may not have lived in his Taco for a while).

 

Diode Dynamics hitch pod with the quick flash installed.
Eventually gonna get a third brake light to match.



Also those mirrors I was talking about, photos don't really do it justice. I no longer have a blind spot.

 

I’d take you up on that if we lived near one another. I’m in northern Canada

 

Oof. yeah just source one locally haha. There is enough room to add a stud up to about 1/2" longer without having to take anything apart more than removing the drum and maybe 1 shoe spring. My studs are 1" longer (advertised wrong by wheeladapter) so I drilled a hole in the backing plate to install. I should have just gone with the Matrix studs and saved myself the trouble lol. Went from 6 lug turns to 17 turns though and that's a nonissue for extended nuts

 

Put on my summer wheels/tires which are the factory wheels. Odd thing is, the TPMS had been paired to the winter wheels but the light hasn't come on ! Can two sets of wheels be in the system ??

 

Congrats! Did that myself a couple of years back. It's nice not having a car or house payment.

 

I remember every time I paid off a vehicle As for a home. Still working on it.

 

No that light will come on eventually

 

Finally got around to installing these bed corner tie downs from @At The Helm. Highly recommend. Factory tie downs in the corners get blocked by lawn chairs I store above the wheels, and the cleats can't get to the corners due to my topper.

 

I just went out in the evening twilight and lubricated the fuel filler door hinge.

The squeaking, scraping drag and sound just reached it's limit for me.

OH! So quiet and smooth now! ;-)

It's the little things that truly matter ;-)

 

Replaced the busted serpentine belt in the AutoZone parking lot. That was fun!

 

Got a link ?

The only reason it says “05-15” (2nd Gen) is the lack of the OEM front rail.

“Will fit 2016+ Tacomas if factory front rail is added. Toyota part number PT278-35100-BH”

 

Thanks.

 

No dis to OP but you plant bamboo around here (central NC) and you’re taking your life into your own hands. Chit is as bad as kudzu. Spreads like wildfire and is hard to eradicate. I suppose there are different species. Some may not be as bad as others. The kind around here sucks.
