What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Sounds like I should be content with 15mpg

 

Cupholders? we doan need no stinkin cupholders..... couldn't find what I needed either, said ta hell with em

 

What is that wire hanging next to lighter? I just bought an 09 and have the same it looks like. Haven't had time to investigate.

 

I'm wanting around 2" lift, not any more because of all the associated problems and additional parts required. I think the 6112 set at 3rd clip will be close, I hope so anyway.

 

recently did a mpg test on my 2013....got 21.9 mpg

 

So I’ve had these 6 Blue Rigid Industries bar light covers forever, just put two in to get a feeling for them, what do you all think?

 

Thanks for your business. Hope you like the lighting

 

That wire is the USB connector coming from the Pioneer head unit. It charges my phone and connects the Android auto app to the radio. Also can be used for a thumb drive with music, ipod, songs from phone apps, and to upload my custom screen saver. neat setup

 

I've found that if I remove just one of the rubber cupholders, My Yetis (I have a 10oz low ball, and 20 oz Rambler, as well as my 40 oz Hydro Flask) fit in there nicely. The Yetis have a little bit of room to jiggle around, but I have never had it spill or tilt over, even while Off-Roading, and the 40 oz Hydro Flask fits snugly, but it works. I may pick up the insert, just to see if I like the look a little better.

 

It a tax time Christmas! Now to the paying work out, so I can go to the fun work!

Looks like you got the Timbren active off road bump stops. I installed them with my suspension upgrade and love them.

 

I asked this in another thread but it didn't get any traction so I'll try here.

Quick question on the color of the Pro headlights. I have a nice set of OEM lights and could try the BHLM but I could also avoid the work and hassle and just buy the Pro lights.

Is the housing color of the Pro lights actually black or is it more of an MGM/dark grey color? I see some off brands and they look black but the pics I see of the Pro lights never look quite as dark.

 

Flush mount leds

 

I had the most fun driving to work in a long time. There were very few cars out, so I got to play.

 

Awesome. I drove down from Portland to Albany. I lost count of all the spin outs.

 

They are a gloss gunmetal, took these when I got mine a while back. Hard to capture with the reflection from the outside of the headlight

 

If your truck is stock, you’re comparing apples to oranges.

 

Trd is lyfe

 

Hahaha I am just trying to make a subtle point about all of the lovely TW members sticking LED's in their trucks and having issues. I prefer not to give the Law any reason to hassle me. And to further that point, the LED's people are sticking in halogen reflectors are inferior in output to the bulbs that were in there before. Its not more output you're seeing. its just a bunch of glare.

You get pulled over for a headlight out or a turn signal and next thing you know the officer smells the oder of an alcoholic beverage. When I was a police officer, I had to work for my cases. I worked in a zero/low crime area, so if you wanted something you had to go get it. And we didn't have to do paperwork for lighting infractions. So a quick stop and talk could be have a good night, or off to jail.

When I first got my truck it drove me crazy because my Yetti would stick as well as my shaker cup. I've perfected the twist out now, I don't even think about it any more. Its become a muscle memory. LoL
