What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Pics!

 

Waiting for my 20k service to be done

 

Wow, never seen a dog with 20,000 miles on it before. Nice!

 

Today I installed a bed mat covering to lay down over my back seat when its folded down. When ever I go on vacation I keep a cooler in the back seat so I can just reach back and grab a soda without stopping. Well it has wheels and wants to slide around when I make turns and I always had to strap it down with a bungee cord and I also hated seeing the back plastic of the seats getting scratched up. So recently I found these rubber mats in the rug section at my local Ollies Bargain Outlet (think a bigger Big Lots).

They were originally some kind of Chevy bedmat that's been cut up and selling as just rubber mats. They were $26 for about 4 x 5 piece my measurements may be off i think it was bigger. Anyways I layed the back seats down took a big piece of cardboard and made template out of it for a good fit. Then taped it on and cut it out. Which wasnt too hard with a new razorblade. Then cut lil grooves for it to fit snug against the walls of the back cubbys and I can still access that area without covering it up. I also had enough of the bed mat material to line the bottom of my truckbox and make a doormat for the garage.

 

Can't be close to what it is here in Seattle. Average house price is $585K and 700sq ft studios are going for $2,400! The unit below our condo is 1400 square feet renting for $3995!

 

Just uploaded the OVTune ECU tune! Looking forward to feeling the changes!

And just in time for my road trip to Kelowna BC!

I've had this sound for about a week. Was getting ready to call dealership. I just figured it was a belt. Thanks for posting!

$350 Alpine PWE-S8 Compact Powered 8" Subwoofer System

Alpine PWE-S8 into the stock HU. Not too bad all things considered. Not my cleanest work, but it's very functional. The black wire running out is the volume adjustment knob I'm using for fine tuning the sound.

 

Jealous. What did you use to get the sound from the HU to the sub/amp? I've been looking into OEM+ but thats the price of a winch bumper

 

I used the ********* subwoofer harness. It was a plug and play deal that plugged into the stock plugs and sent signal back. Then I purchased a cheapie amplifer wiring kit and used the power / ground wires from that to power it.

 

Got me some Hondo Garage radio knobs.

 

^^ Oh, that reminds me. I made myself some new knobs

 

Unicorns do exist, and in this case it found me. Installed MGM bumper caps from @ponts and gave the truck a nice wash. Ponts sent me a PM offering to sell his caps based on me missing out on a different set in the buy and sell. Made me a sweet deal even shipped from the great white north (Canada). Possible debadge in the future now that I've got a taste of less chrome.

Now if only my Prinsu Toprac would get here so I could install my awning and some other accessories.

Cape May to Lewes? Or vice-versa.

 

C4 Fabrication BSM support rear bumper with swing out and all bells/whistles. Added enough weight with the bumper, rack, and RTT that I got Icon heavy duty leaf springs and Toytec U bolt flip kit. No more sagging. Sits perfect now. Happy camper.

 

Pretty sure the 3rd Gen rear sliding window is very similar to the 2nd Gens, so try this out if yours springs a leak!
