What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

That looks sick.

How's it wired?

 

VERY nicely done!

 

I got clear corners and signals up front, Spyder tail lights, and a steal on a camper cover.

Not all today though.

 

Lovin' your truck. Gotta lose the step boards though IMO

 

I already had a waterproof 12v outlet in the drivers rear corner of the bed. So I just wired up a male cigarette lighter plug that has a switch on it to the leads of the led strip.

 

Speak to me, Goose...

 

Looks good man! Those tails and camper look sick!

 

+1

You know what my next advice is...

...get rid of all the badges, pinstripes and decals.

That black beauty would look beast.

 

LOL my friend says that to me all the time.

The PO at one time had a slide in camper and had a 5 wire plug for it in the corner. I had no need for it so I swapped it for a waterproof 12v outlet, the fused 12v power was already run just had to connect it up.

 

Thanks guys! I kind of like the step boards though. It would look better with bigger tires, but the ones I have now give me great mpg and have like 60,000 or more left on them.

 

Lucky bastid... I would really love some power back there.

 

Yeah stay stock on the tires is my advice.

I'm loving the 23-24 mpg I'm getting right now and my truck has gone up any trail I've ever gone up... and come down too, most importantly.

 

How the F are you getting 23-24!?!? Its a v6 right? 31 inch tires too.

 

The outlet was $10, then you'd need about 20ft of wire and a fused link to the battery.

Yup.

3.4 V6, 5 speed manual with 31x10.5x15 tires

I drive lightly, try to drive at a constant speed and am lucky enough not to have too much stop and go traffic.

And I keep it well maintained.

Don't be fooled by that 20.8 in my sig. That's a total for a few years now, includes winter gas, etc...

My running total (last 10 fill ups) is 23 mpg and got a best 24.4 mpg last fill up.

 

I used to get 23-24 as well with 31s

 

thanks... but I'd also have to drill into my bed, which I'm not really keen on doing myself... quite yet.

 

I'll swing by and bring my drill bits.

 

I keeeeed was a slow day at work and I remember seeing how worried you were about it matching.

 

lol... normally I'd tell anyone to stay the f away from my truck, but not on TW

Are you on the front range?
