PreRunner "Not Really Actually a Build" Build/BS Thread

Gas prices caused this Picked it up Thursday. Averaging 80 MPG's over the first 200 miles. I put on it.....the Tacoma is down to 15 on a good tank

 

My wife would kill me if the crazy drivers around here don't first.
Somehow I'm still licensed for a motorcycle even though I haven't driven one in ~10 years..

 

Updated the present day pic on the first post..

Looking at selling the ARB and going back to a stock bumper.
Also looking at getting the whole thing repainted.. Clear coat on the hood and top of cab is peeling/fading, and I have some scuffs/scratches on the rear quarter panels.. I'll post pics later.
I removed the plasti-derp from the remaining fenders with the help of an entire bottle of Goo Gone..
Windshield is $220 to replace, getting that done soon. Looked into replacing the back glass since the latch for the sliding window is broken but he said it's out of stock. Might look into the solid back glass without the window since I never use it and the latch breaking is a common problem..
Also looking at maybe replacing the body mounts? I'm not sure if that's what needs to be done but she's squeaky as fuck going down the road lol. Especially in the rear.
I'll post more pics of the paint, etc. after work.

 

Picture spam from yesterday after I took the plasti-derp off.
You can see the paint damage real good in these. Also need to do something about my rear bumper. Bed lined it and then had some brake fluid (I think) leak down the back and eat it away.

 

It's happening... The time has come to retire Mia.
Came home with a new 2024 Subaru Crosstrek yesterday..
Got a offer from CarMax that's decent for her age/condition so I'll be taking her in on Monday.
