Love the SR 2.7

After 3 weeks couldn’t be happier with this SR DCSB 2.7L.
I have driven Tacoma’s (HiLux) for 45+ years. This was bought to be a second vehicle that will be a unit to daily use in retirement.

It is perfect for this. If i need to pull a trailer have the 4Runner TRD for that. This drives the speed limit in Texas (75/80) with ease. Yes you need an extra second to get there but no problem.
Just added a console safe from Lock’er Down (due next week), a bed cover from UnderCover Elite, and heated seats from Katzkin.

Now to figure out a fix for not having Blind Spot Monitor and fog lights.

 

The fog lights not a big problem as the factory headlights seem just fine.

 

If you want some better night visibility the 1st thing I'd do is the H9 headlight bulb mod as it boost brightness by a lot yet it's cheap and pretty easy (just cut a few tabs or buy a pigtail wire)

I suggest forgetting the BSM. Use your mirrors and turn your head, just like you've always done.

For fogs, @memario1214 from HotShot Offroad can fix you up with a most excellent Diode Dynamics package.

 

Nice truck

Do you have this?
Does it really work?

 

I don't have them yet, just found them. Ordering soon.

 

Reason for asking is talk of using RAV4 mirrors. Which is better? Thinking try the adjustment of what we have and see how that works.

 

Congrats and the truck looks great!

 

Have the UnderCover Elite installed and seat heaters installed.
Lock’er Down console safe due in soon.
