What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Yeah Man, frick, every time I come here I end up ordering something. Last purchase for me was the side bed molle panels....

 

and that interior roof molle panel might be next....

 

Had the day off so decided I should finish what I started. Pulled the seats back out , cut out some platforms and covered them with speaker cabinet fabric. Then anchored everything down. It’s not going anywhere. Could have looked prettier if I took it to an audio shop but where’s the satisfaction in that. It’s good enough for the girls I date.

 

I wish this worked for the access cab! Looks great!

 

Hope you did better than the Russell Stover home fashioned assortment for her.

 

I need to get something like that.

 

1x12x16’ boards in a Taco? Why yes those are 1x12x16’ boards in a Taco . The guys at Home Depot couldn’t believe it neither could the Dodge and Chevy full size truckers .

 

I carried 3/4 of a bundle of siding home passing some of it into the cab through the window. Taco owners are resourceful.
Won't be able to do that with a 4th Gen. The rear window opening is tiny.

 

Put some Rokbloxz mud flaps and tossed the spare on the Wilco tire carrier. Now to figure out the license plate.

 

I did a 100 mile retighten on my oil drain plug. (what's up with these gaskets?)

 

U


Uggg. 4th gen rear window rolls down.

 

Is the drain plug getting loose or is the gasket just letting oil by? I have not seen an issue but now I’ll have to check mine next time to
See if it’s clean or not.

 

I’ve done that multiple times! That rear window definitely comes in handy and you definitely get some looks from people as you go through town.

 

Install this. No more drain plug removal.

I needed some 4x4x16s. I didn't want to take any chances so I had them delivered. But good to know I can fit these size boards int he truck...

 

Took advantage of the decent weather and gave it a bath. Now sitting in the garage having a beer, admiring my truck.

 

After deciding that the Oracal vinyl I use for other flat projects would definitely have issues around the complex/compound curves of the rear section of the quarter panels, I set out and got quotes from the 3 major auto wrap companies locally.
The first shop was double the price of the other two, and the second shop I hit was the same price as the 3rd, but the shop owner was pretty blah about our transaction and it was a considerable ways away from my house.
The last shop I checked gave me a pretty fair price quote, seemed friendly and interested in taking my business.
As a bonus, the shop is only about a 5 min drive from my house.
I've got an appointment to have the ass end of the Taco wrapped in "hod rod red" which is a fairly good match to the red stripe on my current application of Heritage stipes.
Pics when it's all done!

 

I gotta know. At what point was this truck an off road model? Or do you have another?
