What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thanks, yeah i know. Optima batteries quality have came down a lot lately. But figured, give it try since i got it at Auto Zone with a 3 years free replacement, if it fails Auto Zone stores are almost everywhere i can get it replace easy and quick. Time will tell

 

I've been to two different dealers in my state for the 5k and 10k service and had good experiences both times. I think the negative experiences stand out more, but are simply less common.

 

The RTT I have is for 3 people. Its about the size of a Queen mattress with extra length at your feet.

My GSD is about 85-90 pounds and I wouldn't be able to fit him in the tent with my wife and I. I have his kennel that he sleeps in and usually I put him in the flat bed with extra blankets. He had no problems when it got down to about 30°.

 

@THE_KiRRAx, here they are.

 

Looks great Dan. That's the path my truck was headed down before bambi rerouted me. Your truck is pretty sweet. Just realized we missed a chance for a side by side photo op. Maybe this fall if we get to makethat ride up there for the weekend!

Now top get that bakflip cover sold so i can get my revolver!

 

L-track mounted to the bed sides, you can see my build log here; https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ack-low-profile-l-track.665324/#post-23321093
The Backrack itself is mounted to specialty mounts made by Superclamp which they sell for commercial use only (they have a 10 inch model and a 4 inch model with lockable tabs). Talked to one of the guys there and they offered to sell me a few of those mounts since i had such a unique requirement, so i jumped on it since it's perfect for what i need it for.
which in this case is for the backrack


Did it this way to allow me to adjust where i want the entire backrack to sit on the bed of the truck.
it doesn't wiggle around all too much from how it mounts but i did also add in a 2mm rubber spacer at the bottom of the track to reduce the amount of play

 

The deep cycle going to be good for only starting?

 

Looks great mate!

 

Thanks brother.

 

Looks great, I love my cement Tacoma.

What kind of bed cover is that? Can you send me a link?

Thanks.

 

Got her alittle dirty doing some "truck stuff" while the tropical storm comes in, but she's back cleaned up.

Also made a few simple interior mods; changed out the factory interior lights for ones from super bright LEDs, and added the center console organizer(not pictured).

 

This makes me want to buy you the cubby switch adapter so bad...

I only have one battery, so the Optima battery will serve for starting and everything else electrical..

 

Only available for larger switches but if you wanna drop the money I’ll send you the addy

 

That's 2am material before the lights come on.

 

lol touché!


That’s why I bought the larger switches.

 

I looked at a local shop in AJ, AZ... Not as lucky as you. Great find.

 

Pretty sure at 5000 they just rotate tires and check fluids so you should be good

 

needed a bath.

 

Yup.. And they will give you first oil change at 10,000 miles at no charge, @GypsyDanger6
