What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Mine is basically the same, although not limited, but 2WD with street tires and bed cover. I must have a heavy foot lol

 

I purchased a factory Tacoma bed mat from another member on TW. If anyone wants the generic one I got when I bought the truck, enough to pick up in SC, make me an offer… anything, best offer can have it.

 

Drove on the beach, parked, wasted some bait.

 

Rotated the tires at 59,760 Mi prior to my oil change. No pics, so enjoy the thought of seeing tires floating from the back to the front and the lug nuts screwing on and off with the help of my air cat pneumatic tool loosening and tightening those little black babies oh and don't forget my torque wrench took him up to 83 foot pounds.

Ah yes, smooth again.

 

Could of guessed cape Hatteras!

 

Thanks for the test results, I'm at about 60k now so this is probably my next activity.

 

I'm new to the bed mat game...but Rough Country for $99 seemed like a decent deal. It fits okay and seems about 3/8...maybe 1/2" thick.

 

Front seat covers today from Rough Country. They're okay I suppose...neoprene. A PITA to install the first one, then you figure it out second one wasn't so bad.
It was like wrasslin a gator in this Florida heat.
Fronts only. $119 for the set.

 

I get that any day of the week [that I fill up and then drive down, down, down hill to Denver]

 

Close! Across the inlet on Ocracoke.

 

I just filled up and drove home. This is what my registered. I don't think I have ever seen this in my truck.

 

Once immediately after a fillup I was driving mainly 1 speed on the freeway and it hit 25 MPG. Dove fast after the first 10 miles and normal street driving, though.

 

Cheap and effective. I put together a little under hood lighting kit for myself, used a LED light kit with a water resistant domed top button switch I wired together so I can turn the lights on/off any time I want directly from under the hood. Used one of the open mount points behind the passenger headlight to mount the button on.

For anyone interested links below.

I just hit this mileage in mine

 

Took the next step in operation chrome delete and swapped out my headlights with some black ones I picked up from @ivanjo3l

 

was it aligned recently?

 

not a test after its been filled up

 

Installed my new All Pro Off Road rear bumper...

 

Does anyone have Alpha Rex smoked taillights?
I have a pair and have been told it’s hard to notice when my brake lights come on during the day.
Is that normal since they’re smoked? Debating on getting different taillights now cause I don’t wanna risk getting rear ended. PFA

 

Thoughts…



This could possibly be residual oil from the last dealership oil change. Just noticed it when I backed into a parking space and had to cut the wheels sharp to correct.

Edit: Excuse the rust, I live on the coast.
