What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Thank you

 

Looks great! I enjoyed the post.

 

Same here. Waiting till I get some new shoes and other things till I become a pic whore with my new to me 3rd gen thats been mostly stock for a bit now. Ha. Got my whole lift done tho.. Just a waiting game for me bc of insane lead times on some parts to finish her up, as well as long wait time to get into the shop for my cmr and fender trim.

 

Thanks! When I was looking at Tacos a year ago, I had narrowed down to this one and another one in Barcelona Red. What steered me to this one is it has a sunroof, whereas the B-red one didn't. It was a tough choice but I really dig the sunroof. If the red one would've had a sunroof, I have no doubts I'd have picked that one. However, I am noticing there's very very few Blue Crush Metallic Tacomas in Houston, so still very happy that I found a relatively "unique" color to work with!

 

I had the same issue, I waffled back and forth on them both. The AT4's are also warranted to 60K miles as opposed to only 50K for the KO3s and some other popular AT tires like Nittos and Toyos. That's about another year of driving on them, which more than makes up for the slightly higher price tag. But ultimately the KO3's just had the "look" I wanted, which is totally subjective and when its time to replace them I may regret not going with the AT4. lol

But either way, they're both great looking tires.

 

Oh, I totally missed that, I will take a look, thanks for the heads up! Would like to see how others have built theirs up, what rack options there may be! Appreciated!

 

Upgraded the camp stove setup from our old Coleman. Glad the drawer was just big enough by 1/4 inch!

 

I really don't see many B-reds around these parts either, there is a 2nd gen red I see sometimes, but there is another 3rd gen that lives further back in the neighborhood from me that looks alot like mine... I see it most days.. lol


Most are black then silver or gray and then white, very few blues or reds and any other color is a Unicorn... Now the guy next to me has a 2nd gen blue that is sharp and a 4th gen that is black...
Only ever seen 2 real TRD Pros and both are black, and other than those 2, I have the only Pro grill..

 

Hopefully off-road you won’t have any issues. If you do you will probably need the CMC. Let us know how it works out.

 

I wrapped a piece of 3/4ply in outdoor carpet, and found some fiberglass heavy duty bins for machine parts, that are perfect height and strong enough to easily support any weight I put on them.
Seats are all the way back.

 

Where do you find that sub forum

Traded in for a ford?! Asking for a friend.

I guess you don't understand how true that is given the bag over your face icon?. I was out today cleaning the rig. 6:00 am no sun wiping down and vacing the interior. The temp had to be 60's. Given I had somewhere to be had to shower. The shirt wasn't "soaked" but was well on it's way to it. Indiana had to be settled in the winter time or by people who arrived in the summer who could not afford to go any further.

 

I grew tired of cold killing half the year and humidity killing the other half in IN and OH. I know how summer humidity is a killer and winter cold is often fatal in the Midwest. This requires a good AC in summer and winter cold requires a good furnace. A basement helps to hide from humidity and a little from the cold, but that is only a partial relief.

 

That reply reeks of AI. "Winter cold is often fatal"? It can be, but often...

 

Not AI by any stretch. A few years back between late December and January 20 or so it was between 0 and 5 degrees at night, 20 MPH+ winds. TV forecasters were BEGGING viewers to NOT go outside ... "THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL MIDWEST COLD ... IT IS A KILLER!". I worked from home so did not experience it much but went out 5 times or so for food supplies just to see if it was still Alaskan-brutal.
