What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Where did you get the tires?

 

My Taco gain 5hp just by adding that stiffeners

 

Caved and got some tailgate letters. Putting on SNS Design ABS sensor covers this weekend, got blue ones to match my wheels, pics to follow later

 

I got the KO2’s in Dec 2020 two weeks after I bought the truck.

 

Got them at 4Wheel Parts in San Jose. I was originally just ordering the tonneau cover from them and inquired about tires and they had these four in stock so I blurted out “I’ll take them” since tires anywhere we’re back ordered for weeks due to Covid supply chain issues.

 

Buy 3 get one free is a good deal.

 

Jealous. I never got 5Guys. Maybe tomorrow.

Wheels look sweet by the way.

 

Thanks man! I just got the little bacon cheese burger for an appetizer, getting ready for a pork chop dinner.

 

I think there are two left close to where I work. Might be lunch tomorrow. Might as well get ElGuapo washed.

 

I washed mine for the second set of pics…..gotta say one thing that sucks about coastal living is the damn seagulls lol!

 

Ugh... can you shoot them??
Gave it its first good coat of dirt yesterday. Want it clean for when the wheels show up.

 

Yeah I keep asking people lol. Trying to decide how dark 5% is. I’m leaning towards 5% and 50%. I got my measured the other day since I bought it used tinted and he said my fronts were around 12-13. 5 wouldn’t be much more difficult.

 

Today was a day of doors…
I installed Kicker CS speakers, Boom Mats, black door handles, passenger smart handle, and new wiper blades. I also properly ran the hardwire for my dashcam. Oh front wheelwell splashguards finally done too!

 

Did the full Kicker CS speaker install a few weeks ago. Can’t wait to get an amp now!

 

Yup, same. I knew going in, I’d need one. Had these probably 9 mos, glad to finally get them installed. Really was shocked how sad the factory were. They did fair for as cheapo as they are.

 

I was shocked too especially when I pulled the first 6x9 out at how feather light they were! The factory speakers are a joke. But in all fairness I didn’t buy the off road for the stereo system. But man does it make a difference in clarity! I didn’t even think there was anything in the dash before!

 

I definitely think the OR grille is the better looking of the OEM's. My only issue was the Toyota emblem is just a bit too chrome. I hit mine with tint film and knocked it down a few notches.

 

Haven't done anything lately and have been going back and forth about my next purchase. A decked system or a Diamondback cover? thoughts?

 

I guess it really depends on what you plan on doing with your truck. I love my diamondback it essentially turns your bed into Fort Knox. The decked system is cool too I just opted for diamondback because it essentially doubles the bed space considering you can stack whatever you want on top and strap it down. I have strapped all kinds of stuff to the top of it. I would definitely suggest going with the HD version it cost a little more but worth it in my opinion. I would say the only negative so far of owning it would be that it really limits the height of what you can put in the bed. It’s not exactly a quick process taking it off. I just end up strapping anything that’s to tall on top of the cover.
