What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

shat reminds me of the fan boys on coloradofans.com when I told them I was trading mine off for a new Tacoma.

 

That's Bush Motors (or General BUSH, lol)

Love the Tacoma side decal

 

Story of my life!

Guess I'll have to stick with my painted version for now. At least the prices is coming down!

 

They have them in different colors. Got it on ebay.

 

I am out... Off to cry time & playdoh therapy

 

Love that midnight blue and the 6.2 is a great motor. I am shocked at the depreciation on that model though. A LTZ, double cab 4x4 6.2, with LTZ plus package, full feature leather with heated/vented seats, sport package, bed liner, cargo box lighting and all the bells and whistles has a trade in value of around $37K in top condition. $15K off the sticker price right off the lot. That is insane.

 

Yeah I know. But when a midsize won't do what I need, kinda leaves you at the mercy of the numbers.

I'm used to owning big trucks, and I usually hold them and use them.

Plus the taco took a hit too. The Toyota/ford dealer I bought it from new offered 1,500 less than the Chevy dealer.

 

Pretty much same price as a taco limited.

It would be great if Toyota updates the Tundra, but right now the big 3 are kinda running away with the truck market. That's where the innovation is really happening.

 

In addition to the pro grille, added interior LEDs and license plate lights.

 

Haha people from the westside cant drive in sunshine let alone rain or so

 

Awesome set up what are the specs on your wheels?

 

I'm running 265/75-16 BFG:ko2s mounted on the Fuel's 16x8's 0-
Stock suspension,no rubbing even with mud-guards. Got my wheels from discount tire near Seattle.
There are several websites where you can find the 16x8's Hope this helps you.

 

@fortiz619 take a look at post
38269 for some info or the one above. Hope this will help you if not let me know.

 

I wish I had my old 83 straight axle 22-r those were great trucks

 

Best looking ones too. I turned 16 in 1984. I wanted one of these so badly. Would've donate my left testicle for one. Hell....at the time I would probably given both of them up.

 

I agree with you,my neighbor has one that he is rebuilding. Back in the 80s i sold mine for $2,000 what was I thinking?

 

Rain never helps , but the amount of traffic we have now i think is the key factor here

 

Ah yes. That damn hindsight is always 20/20...isn't it?

 

Did you change just the muffler or a muffler kit
