What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Looks like your getting some good MPGs

 

Complaining about 101 ... lightweights!

 

Lol. Unless like you said, its humid. Fuck that. 101 and humid af would be worse. I'd prefer the 120 dry heat over 101 (any temp really) with high humidity any day.

 

Y’all can come get some 95-100 degrees with 75-80% humidity here in Arkansauna. I lived in Phoenix for several years, that ain’t shit compared to steamy humid air you can cut with a knife.

 

Lived in IN/OH for almost 30 years ... been there, done that, burned all of the T-shirts ...

 

Read 111 yesterday

 

You need to good foot control to accomplish that..

 

Saw 102 leaving Bryant today.You would think after 36 years I would be used to it but no... Team Winter for the win!

Oh, and did a Diode Dynamics interior swap on Kermit.

 

As someone who's lived in AZ for years and driven through Arkansas last summer I can agree. Arkansas heat/humidity is nasty. NC heat and humidity wasn't nearly as extreme. AZ summers suck though.

 

replaced my worn center console cover.



any good steering wheel cover recommendations?

 

Driving out to Zion/Bryce toward the end of last week the temp hit 113 at one point for a bit. Was gross.

Anywho…

Rolled over 20k yesterday. Only about 7k of them are mine, but still.

Today I changed the oil/filter, as well as the cabin and engine air filters. Gotta take it in to get the tire rotation and the rest of the 20k inspection items logged and done. Also washed it after the aforementioned Zion/Bryce trip:

 

I'm impressed with the way the conversation took off with it being Hot as Hell outside but, I took the pic and posted to show I hit 36,000 miles

 

I thought that after I replied lol!

 

Howdy folks, from Houston Texas!
I'm a little embarrassed, I've had my '22 Tacoma TRD Off Road for almost a year, but was hesitant to post pictures since it was basically stock, and since the title of this thread is "What have you done to your Tacoma today", and the fact that I hadn't done anything except put a TRD Pro grill on it, but didn't think that was worthy of pics.
But this weekend, I splurged and installed a lift and some new shoes for it! Changed up the badging color to match the wheels a bit better. I don't see too many 6 ft bed Taco owners posting photos, so I hope you enjoy!

The basics:
Old Man Emu lift 4004 springs, Nitrocharger shocks in front
Old Man Emu leafs and Nitrocharger shocks in rear
Old Man Emu Upper Control Arms
Fuel Blitz D674 17 x 9, -12 offset wheels in matte bronze/black
BF Goodrich 285/70R17 KO3's

Just to help others out, immediately after installing the KO3s, there was slight rubbing on the body mount, but I took it for an alignment and now it doesn't rub after getting everything into spec. Thought I was going to have to do the cab mount chop, but lucked out.

 

Perfect, thanks. One more question, so the mounting bracket is one bolt to the rail and it holds the three gallon securely? I was worried about the weight of the gas and just one mounting point.

 

Yes, one large bolt with lock washer to it's own channel nut in the rail, also has two support tabs on either side to prevent sway, and the bottom is a padded foot that keeps the whole thing from shaking against the bed. It actually seems quite secure but haven't loaded it with fuel weight yet, if anything I think that'd actually help.

 

Nice looking truck, I think those wheels in a matte black, maybe gloss black would look good with my B-red... But they look great with your blue... Thanks for posting the pics....

 

Welcome to TW!

 

There's a sub forum "Let's see those Double cab long beds" that a lot of us like to add pics of our trucks to

 

@Dlo_houston

So....I'm torn between the Wildpeak AT4s and the BFGs.

I'm sure pricing will be the deciding factor.

My fellow Delawarean has the Wildpeaks so I'm leaning towards those...
