Finally, my baby is here

Great looking truck! I'll keep an eye out for it. I usually wave to other Taco owners in our area and rarely is it reciprocated--most seem to have tunnel vision...

 

Oh man, mine tried that on me, I gently moved the discussion away and towards sliders so we never got stuck anywhere. However my mother in law already complains about getting into my truck now and its stock heights and no sliders/boards.....hmmmmm I think I just figured a way for her to not ride in there anymore.....lol

 

Congrats!!! Great looking rig there!! And so it begins -- even the occasional off-road bug can bite hard!! Have fun -- the reason you got her!! Good pics too!! My truck has become my favorite model!!

Happy New Year!!

 

I agree. I did that as soon as I picked up my truck. Why Toyota makes the front flaps so long is beyond me.

 

Hmm... They are quite long indeed.

 

Interior shot of the gauge cluster and audio head unit. On the left side, on windshield mount, is HTC One running inclinometer android app. The app is a roll & pitch indicator and also a compass.

 

I lifted my truck so the mud flaps would quit dragging.

 

Picked up Undercover Flex tonneau cover from a TW member. The cover is in excellent shape. He was so kind to give me some tips of how to install the cover properly. Thank you so much.

The installation was straight forward and easy enough that it only took me a little over 30 minutes to complete installation and adjustment.

I really love it!

 

What would be next, 5100s or TRD cat back?

 

5100s if those are your 2 choices. Our trucks don't need a louder raspier exhaust IMHO and the power gains vs price are minimal. Money better spent elsewhere.

 

I'm leaning toward 5100s as well. Would love to have better handling on and off road (unpaved, gravel). Not too much of a rock climbing, hard wheeling, etc.

I'm wondering if adding 5100, set at 0, with stock coil spring would add any lift to the front?

 

That is a very nice truck.

Have you used the power outlet in the bed?

 

5100's would be a good choice. Set a zero you won't get any lift. .85 would be the better choice.

 

Excellent looking truck. Love it. Question for you...did you order it? If so, how long did it take to come in? By the way, I do a lot of freelance photography and your pictures are excellent. Good light, different perspectives, etc.

 

Which coil springs should I use to achieve ~1 inch lift, with 5100 set at zero?
Also, I'm interesting in having 5160s in the back. Any input? Tks.

Thanks. I try to have it a clean looking truck.
I did not special order, but asked my dealer to search around for one that I liked. It took them almost a month to find the one.
Btw, photography is part of my career.

 

Thank you.

Yes, I did use it a couple of times. Charging phone, powered portable Bluetooth stereo while we were at parks, and etc.

 

Clean looks.



Get dirty! After a little fun today.

 

Toytec = Great customer service!!!

Exchanged emails with Kevin at Toytec, got all the needed information for my next mod: Suspension upgrade.

The conclusion.......

Front: 5100s / Toytec 112-620 coils
Rear: 5160 / stock 4 leaf springs

That will be my best tax return project ever...

 

was expecting the same but had my truck the next day..only one in that configuration in Chicagoland and they brought it over the next day

 

At the beginning I was told that they found the truck that I wanted and would be able to deliver on the next day.
The saleman informed me the next day that the truck arrived. I went to the dealer and found that it was not the right one. It was DBLB TRD sport!
