What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

Dust. I like to drink dust and the ashes of my enemies

 

Typical ginger...

 

just got my timbren rear bump stops in the mail. going to install these and remove my sway bar.

 

haha, I literally have an Exacto sitting on my desk as it was my next thought to try

 

55 k post on this thread. dag on

 

Ah yes, the dash cup holders. Spills drinks all over the radio and blocks the vents. At least with that design when you pull it they drop down, unlike our 02 Tundra in which they pop up instead...but it no longer does since it broke.

 

But it actually just makes water condensate on the drinks and drip everywhere, also melts the ice in them faster.

I don't know, I want to get my hands on one of those extendo cup holders/surround for the shifter so I can only use the pull out when necessary.

 

I have the same ones, their great when you're parked.

What brand of dash mat you got there?

 

Its a DashMat...made by DashMat

haha but its their original series, got it on sale for $20 years ago on AutoAnything

 

Little bud built mod to protect the transfer cases

 

Well, I asked a stupid question, haha.
Thanks man.

 

Damn Erin, you are doing a hell of a job on the install. I have the same 5x7 DB in rear but went with the Polk DB 5.25 component set up front. The tweeters popped right in the stock tweeter locations. Running off the receiver internal amp, with a lil powered woofer under seat. I'm sure your speakers sound great with appropriate RMS wattage your amp provides.

 

Pretty good average mpg for my last 2 tanks.

 

Dang... I'm getting about 17 right now with about 290 miles per tank...

 

How!?!


I get like...225 per tank (base driving) if that..

Put my taco on craigslist...showed it to some guy today offered me 8k Im firm at 8500 and kinda dont wanna sell but want a v8 rwd GM car...cough..

For now im rockin' the yoter though.


Shh dont tell TW

 

Gay

 

That's all the way to empty haha not to reserve.

Base driving I get like 14mpg, but I drove to KC and back and that increased my mpg initially up to 18. But now it's going back down. Light came on when the ultra gauge read 230 miles driven since fill up.

Base driving kills my mpg, truck never warms up so it never goes above 14 mpg.

Interested to see what I get on the highway when I drive back home now that I've got more weight...

 

How far/long do you drive on base?
My average on fuelly (in my sig) is all driving from school and back. (8 miles one way,twice a week) and 9 miles one way 3 times a week.

 

I think it ends up being .8 miles from my dorm to work. So maybe 2 minutes of driving including stop signs.

Before I reset my ultra gauge it was reading between 13.6-13.8 for mpg's driving 99% on base.

So .8 miles one way 6 times a week.
