What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I tried something. I made some fold out extensions to my platform bed (only 5' without extensions, +17" with extensions) so I can fit 2 people in the back. I thought about ways to do this and decided on using a hinge system for convenience. And then either pop the pins out of the hinge or remove the hinge bolts when I want to remove them.

I was hoping to get away with only using the slide out steel tubing, but it's a bit too flexy. Maybe some thicker steel tubing will do it, I'll have to iterate on the design a bit. But with the 2x4 stands, those platforms are solid.
I plan on using them for camping for good weather only. Now I can comfortably fit 2 people in the bed. I also have a trifold foam mattress (not pictured) that covers the whole bed.
And I can still easily store gear on top when they are folded in.

Next thing I will do is make a bug net that covers the back and maybe some ripstop too for a wind break. Although with your head towards the inside, it's not bad with the wind when you are in a sleeping bag.

 

Which series of the OtterBox are you using? I changed over to the Symmetry series and mine charges through the case:

OTTERBOX SYMMETRY SERIES Case for iPhone 8 PLUS & iPhone 7 PLUS (ONLY) - Retail Packaging - FINE PORT (CORDOVAN/SLATE GREY)

With the old Defender I had it didn't work. If a belt clip is a must for you, there are several options on Amazon for holsters which will fit the phone with the Symmetry case on it.

 

Defender. I’ll have to check out the others with a belt clip. Thanks!

 

Belt clip? 1993 would like it's phone back.....

 

After waiting on Toyota to send me my second key for my 2021 for months, decided to just bite the bullet, rent this little gadget and purchase a key. $100 later, I have a second key. If Toyota ever decides to send the the second key, I’ll just end up with 2 spares.

 

I'm in AZ and have them in my truck. No issues with the heat.

 

I had a bag phone with a magnetic mount antenna in 1993

 

Same with me. I was thinking of calling about it since I hadn't heard from them since I had my truck in for the fuel pump. I was just chalking it up to them not wanting to do it.

 

I’ll take another pic tomorrow. I’m away from my baby right now.

 

Nice, I have one on order for my DCLB. All the ARE dealers here quoted 16 weeks. How long did your take?

 

Diamondback SE went on today despite the rainy weather:

 

I went with a Century cap and it took just over 4 week's. I look at all the brands and didn't see too much difference. My biggest concern was the color match. Which mine turned out to be a good match tho.

 

My big mod for this month. Tri Color badge which adds 10 more HP.

 

Waiting on my TRD air box and skid plate that I got with the memorial day sale! Also my ktjo Piller shipped so that'll be a catastrophe.

 

First 2 mods on the Tacoma.
Anybody plastic dip the chrome part of the rear bumper?

 

What I do for a living I can’t keep it in my pocket or lay it down.

 

Me either....

 

With all that stuff in there, maybe something exciting would happen if you did lol.

 

Well, just ordered a carbon fiber gas cap holder, cannot wait. I am also contemplating getting the TufSkinz carbon fiber interior accents. Would love to see real pictures of them installed and feedback

 

Nope, but thought about it or painting them to match or getting some painted bumper caps like these:

@Rob Daman Had a YouTube video explaining how to do it yourself.
