Cheap mods you are proud of

Uh....? Ok.. I don't get it Mr. Tux

 

One of the best was removing the swaybar and it is FREE.
To counter any extra roll brought on by s.b. removal I found these Icon progressive front bumps made for Tundras. $95

 

I still fail to see how an altimeter would help you stay on a road in visibility that poor?

 

it's more about situational awareness. if trolls trolling trolls

 

I like the salvaged altimeter! Our Garmin GPS can be set to show altitude and we enjoy watching the extremes and changes on mountain trips. Altitude correlates with vegetation and geology changes.
We've thought of velcroing an inclinometer somewhere as well.... interesting when you crest a hill and cannot see any road at all over the hood, due to an 18% grade descent. (Newfoundland, TN, UT)

 

…okay?
I’m pretty sure the word troll doesn’t mean what you think it means.

 

better to call it good natured trolling, if troll only has negative connotations. i don't think it does because i have seen it used that way, but proudly no expert here.
a fine Saturday diversion, nonetheless.

edit: got me thinking (apologies to thread). "Trolling" original def i learned fishing. you drag a lure and see what you get. exactly as i used the word here.
looking it up, it may have taken on an insulting meaning for net use. fuck that and those that use the net that way, if that is in fact the definition.

 

all phones have an altimeter

 

Noooowww I understand. Much less severe accusation!
I’ve never used that phrase before and then had someone take it literally and look up the definition before! You seem like a good egg!

 

Do you have your barometric pressure set to the correct reading? 29.92 is sea level, but if the pressure in the area you're in is higher, you'll have incorrect indication.

 

My phone does not have one.
But all phones have a clock and people still wear wristwatches, so, what's your point.

 

Yes, when we use it, I set the pressure to the local airport's barometric pressure , or if known , the elevation. So, yes, to your point, it will change/ be inaccurate unless its first calibrated. Also will change just sitting in the driveway depending on what the current pressure is as of that moment.
We don't use use it daily, just trips, where we are in hilly/ mountainy areas like Tn, Wv, etc.

 

Bungee cord mounting point. My first and only mod in 6 years, lol.

 

Better return to stock.
That will certainly will void your warranty. - I am also sure that mod renders you un-insurable...

 

Don’t sell yourself short. Pretty sure that’s not factory vinyl on that rear window.

 

GOOD idea there .....an anchor point is needed on these trucks in that spot.....i used the 2nd gen lugs....those 3rd gen lugs are kinda big and goofy looking

 

I like your setup for adjustability. My 3rd gen doesn’t have a rail so I went this route.

 

neither did mine )3rd gen( but i added the rail

 

Obviously you’ve never air launched your Tacoma off a steep hill. Rookie.

 

Best cheap mod I’ve done was the cupholders that will fit a hydroflask. No more will they roll all over the front seat or fall to the floor if I have to brake hard. Worth every penny
