What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I know that a meter is pertnear a yard. That's as far as I go.

 

10/1/20 - Washed & dried Tacoma yesterday and was going to lay a coat of wax on her but the farmer decided to shell corn.

 

Is this PVC?

 

Gave her a bath.
Also got together with my wrap buddy yesterday and he's gonna wrap the bottom part of the tailgate. Trying to decide if I want to add white letter inserts.

 

Would you need to add white letters? Or just gently cut around the letters so the white comes through? Either way, I think white letters would looks good with the lower wrap

 

I have this done and my wrap guy did a solid black with color matched inserts. I think color matching the letters is the way to go. It's a good contrast.

Well, the shifting is definitely "faster" but it helps with the heavier wheels/tires.

Gas mileage is definitely more impacted by the weight and lack of aerodynamics I have. Under 65 it's great (I also just got it tuned) around 17. Over 70 it drops off -- I'm at about 14.5 this last tank.

I'm also running a big heavy expo truck -- steel high-clearance front and rear, RTT, rack, dual batteries, etc. Lots of added weight that somewhat necessitated the higher gearing.

In terms of offroad performance, I like it. I never felt like I was out of power/gear with the stock 3.91s in low range, but I basically just point and go with the 5.29s and low range.

 

Cutting by hand would look ghetto. He can cut the letters out on his cutter but then alignment would be a b*tch. Easier to just go with white letter inserts.

 

Thank you sir. Looks good. Think I'm gonna with it. The Taco being white will make it stand out that much more.

 

Rotopax 2gal 1gen packs with DLX and LOX mounts inbound.

 

Not yet. It looks like it's on there pretty good....

 

Look at the brite side......., he wasn't spreading manure!

 

I think I’ve said this before, but that is the coolest I’ve seen

 

well put. Highway robbery even. I bought a fake garnish online and tried it for thousands of miles. My TSS never worked the entire time so I went back to no garnish and it works fine. Just makes my truck look like a 2016/17

 

What battery mount did you use for the 2nd unit?

 

Off Grid Engineering

I can’t post their URL, for some reason.

 

its by off grid engineering. Mainly went with them because they had setup with the redarc bcdc. I will say that the finish on the battery tray left alot to be desired. Wished they would have at least done some rough/finishing passes on the tray and a better job on deburring edges. They also forgot to send me some cable so i went out and bought a couple rolls of 8 awg wire. other than that its alright
