Keystone State Thread

Yeah we gave each other a head nod. I saw him in my rear view and saw a bumper and got excited thinking it was @loosnut

 

Just want to the dealer. New frame on order. Time to start removing stuff

 

Still waiting on a call back for a time to go get mine. When I do I’ll cruise by and pick up the tires.

 

Any of you fellow Pennsyltuckians interested?

Snow wheelin anyone ?

 

The Keystone Cruisers were out today. I haven't heard back yet.

 

Hi Caz. I am a member of the Cruisers also. I was out with Greg and Andy today at Rausch. Morning was good but got real slick towards the end. Awesone as always. Still driving home. 78 was terrible.

 

Congratulations

 

Anyone in the western pa area selling an oem tonneau cover off of a 2017 short bed with all the parts? I will do a bed rail swap

 

Have you looked at aftermarket? I got the extang solid fold 2.0. Fits well, easy on and off, etc.

 

I have, actually the one u mentioned. I watched a video of an install and I’m not a huge fan of drilling the bed for the drain tubes and the relocation of the bed rail system. I don’t know I’m torn haha what’s your thoughts on it

 

Saturday the 16th at RC

 

It snowed here on Saturday when I posted that , at the time we had a few inches and I was seeing if anyone wanted to go out

 

I didn’t have to to do any of that with mine. I have the solid fold 2.0 and it’s a awesome cover ! No drilling or nothing , fits perfect on the existing rail system

 

Hey guys, One of our fellow Tacoma owners needs our help. Some of you met him at my house..

Sam aka 05dubcab & Katie Rudman lost their home yesterday due to a fire. They were not at home at the time and luckily their son and baby daughter were with them. They lost everything including 2 family pets. One of which Ruger, we knew from TacOberFest and Carlisle Truck Nationals. There is a go fund me page set up. Please, if it's only $5. Give.. They are one of us. And, even if it wasn't the Holiday Season. It's never a good time to lose everything you worked for. Thanks for your support.

 

I've known Sam and Katie since 2005 long before the married were students at WVU. If you can't recall Sam, you are bound to remember "John Deere, Sams buddy Atwell. Had a big ass Dodge and just loved the Tacoma guys and our trucks.. Good kids, great parents and have 2 beautiful children. If you can, donate.. Thanks for the share.

 

Thanks for the info! I may have been thinking of the encore. But one question, from looking at the solid fold 2.0 on their website. Does the front section near the cab fold back to the rear allowing access to the front of the bed?

 

Not sure which one you looked at, but mine required no drilling or relocation of anything. It attaches directly to the existing bed rails, just had to remove the end caps. Took 5 minutes to install. Bed caps don’t have to be cut, etc. no drain tubes.

He beat me to it...

No it doesn’t fold back, but access under it isn’t that bad. Plus, you can take it off the truck in a minute or two, by yourself.

Edit to add: I love mine. It’s not 100% waterproof, but only leaks with heavy raining while driving. I could probably make it tighter to eliminate that, but it doesn’t bother me.

 

Never met them but i did what i could. Maybe someday.
One brighter note there is talk of a cheesesteak meet again.Maybe @glassdoc will attend so i can see one of my favorite 1st gens (its a flat bed).
