What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

I purchased some T-4 halogens for my backup light mod. It is supposed to rain here in PHX the next few days and I am looking for things to do in my garage.

 

It has four feet on the bottom ( one at each corner ) that have holes in them to bolt down. Since it's sitting on the fender well I was only able to bolt down 3 but it's secure. I just marked the holes and drilled thru my fender well and secured with bolts and nuts with lock washers. I bought it at Pep boys for around $50. It's not the fastest pump but it works great and gets the job done. I had this mounted under my Jeep hood for a couple years and I actually used it quite a bit.

 

Today I loaded up with my trailer, long bed 85 on it loaded full of parts.. 3 spare tires for the trailer and on for my tacoma. Tools and a set of axels and transmission and tranfer cases in the bed.. drove 211 miles and ran out of gas.

Toyota is rescuing me under roadside assistance.

Gas light cane on when I hit the 30 mile stretch with no fuel and 1 mile from the exit it died.. poop.

Yay for toyota care! And the ONE TIME I forget the gas can that's normally in the bed.

 

Are those water proof? I have the same one and I left it in the bag behind the rear seat until I need it. I would be concerned with water splashing on it under the hood and ruining it.

 

Fuel mileage ratings...

 

Filled up - 76L (20.1 Gal)

always good when the needle doesn't move after turning off the truck.

 

Ordered some weather tech mats Woo Hoo.

Yeah... I bet you're right...

Cause you get great gas-mileage WHEN YOU CAN'T MAKE IT UP THE RAMP OF YOUR CONDO'S UNDERGROUND PARKING LOT and actually drive the truck..!

 

Sounds like you need to move

 

yikes, don't think I have ever gotten past 19

 

I don't recommend it, but I hit 83L once.

Once.

But I also had a jerrycan in the bed when it went down, just in case...

I often hit around 80L though, when I know where the pumps are, since I know the truck pretty well by now.

The UltraGauge really helps too, once dialed in...

 

Blasted drifts today!! thats what i've done to my tacoma today.

 

Sound like a great way to kill your in tank fuel pump nice and early.

 

Like I said, I don't recommend it.

But besides - what do you think this thing is? A Chrysler?!?!

 

This.



I'll take better pics in the daylight.

Nice. You get any install pics

 

Didn't really stop to take many pics, most of the ones I did take were fuzzy, I like this one though
