What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

welcome to TW...
the tacoma comes from the factory with cold air intake?

 

check the one at bobbercycle also

 

God bless from California. We need that love

 

ooo that ones nice, same price too

 

just saw that the one on Amazon is a Chinese? copy(maybe) of the
SaBellCo lock

 

Why?

 

Do you have a link ? Last year my wife had an outback wilderness w/ a camera, never thought I would need it! Man I miss that camera in the big hood Tacoma! I bumped a few boulders last week! That camera will pay for itself in repair savings!

edit; after reading the post again I think I can look it up without a link! Thanks for that info!

 

I've found the front camera to be an absolute game changer on the trails!

 

While installing the anytime locker yesterday, I noticed the cabin filter! This truck is a 2023 with 21k bought new last Nov. we drive lots of hwy miles. I wouldn’t have ever guessed that the filter would have been this dirty already!

Also the anytime locker is gonna be a blast, tore up my wet yard, now in 2wd high it will smoke the rear 265-75-16 KO2 with the break on (powerbreak engaged : ) and that’s with the heavy camper shell on!

It overrides the pc trac controls when engages.
Easy install and they have discounts available, well worth the $260

 

Washed and waxed it.

 

Put my Alucab shadow awn back on. Took it off for winter and just now getting it ready for summer again

 

Spent 7 hours, as a 61 year old, detailing top to bottom my 2023 OR yesterday. Hand washed, then Mothers Clay Balled the entire exterior, then applied Chemical Guys HydroSlick Ceramic Hyperwax. Smooth as a baby's butt now.

 

Those white wheels!!! hubba hubba

 

Added an overlay to my tailgate to make it less slippery and plastic overlays to the chrome door handles; both items were promos for me.

The tailgate cover is about 1/8" thick and just screws on over the existing tailgate panel. It's less slippery and less hard on the knees but not the same level of quality as the replacement panels. It makes the tailgate a bit harder to close since I also have a tailgate seal in place. It's a basic option, not real truck stuff (and the price was right for me).

The handle overlays replaced vinyl I'd done before because I could never find the AJT ones in stock. These take about 4 seconds each to install. A slight bit of chrome shows through and I'm fine with that. Much cheaper than the AJT ones and I bet they aren't as good either (I still think they are overpriced for what they are).

The wheels are nice, but it hurts me to see them parked on our tundra. That takes years to recover.
In Colorado, they don't allow "off road" driving, just "off highway". Forest Service roads are fair game (and fun!) but you can't leave the 'marked' road. Just because it is a marked road doesn't indicate it is maintained or even passable.

 

Is that one 1 star review from you?

 

No; mine isn't approved yet. That 1 star review is from someone who obviously doesn't know how a bolt works. I'd give it a 4; does what it is intended to do but isn't earth shattering goodness. If you want a less slippery tailgate, fine. If you want a flat tailgate, spend the money on the SnailArmor or Hooke options. This is a basic cheap option, not real truck stuff.

 

It doesn’t look bad for the price. I’m working on trying to combine a Bed Rug and a Mountain Hatch.

 

I’d love to take credit, but I saw them on another site somewhere, it was tough to scuff brand new wheels to repaint them!
I guess I have liked white wheels for a while?
