What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

i like it a lot....i broke the end cap taking it off but i have a new one otw for $7.

 

non-acetone finger nail polish remover, it wiped right off!

 

LAST UPGRADE AVS AEROSKIN

 

What's the thought behind how the aeroskin protects more than just the leading edge of the hood? I googled it and watched a couple of YouTube videos, but still unsure how it works.

 

tbh i didnt even look into that, just got it for the looks lol

 

Sure looks sweet, tho.

 

thanks bro!

 

Weather tech mud flaps installed, pop n lock installed, wire it up tomorrow, finally going to warm up to 68 degrees Sunday.

 

I didn't read through to see if anyone asked what your needs are, but...
If you have kids or dogs you may just go ahead and get the plates. Small little feet or legs can easily go through the sliders and really cause some lifelong damage. Having said that, they really do look better without them and are obviously cheaper. I have kids AND a dog, and I chose to go without. For me, that means I will have to be very good about helping them in and out of the truck. If, at any point, there is a close call, I'll buy plates and weld them on. Hope this helps

 

My thoughts exactly. Thanks.

 

Installed a Softopper, Husky Liners and went for a drive.

 

Cool. Thinking about getting one.

 

The hood skin is definitely attractive but it does nothing for the paint in front of it. This is a disappointment, to me, in the hood/grille intersection even though I love the new gen. I had them on my last 2 trucks and they did their job. The truck before those, without the skin, was rock chipped exactly in front of where the new skins attach. IMO they should have coated that area, similar to the area beneath the doors, the same color as the paint to protect it. Then the skin would protect the thinner paint coats behind it.

 

Used the Carista app on iPhone 6 and this:

no more seatbelt chime, 5 blinks on turn signal, all doors open with one click on the remote. It's the little things

 

Installed 2nd Battery

 

Hope you don't smoke... Having a lead acid battery in the cab with you is not a very wise choice.

 

Nope don`t smoke, and I had one in the same spot in my 01 and 98 Taco, you do see that it`s a sealed Battery right?

 

With the risk of spillage and the off gassing when it gets warm. Still not a good idea IMHO.

 

Thanks for this info. Just ordered one.
