3rd Gen General Discussion Poster Child Thread and Weekend Drinking Haiku - Tacoma Flex Friday

Oh ya, 22lb turkey with ALL the fixings. Family get together. I'm doing the cooking, as normal, should be a good celebration.

 

Right on. Enjoy the holiday.

 

And if it's anything like my thanksgiving feast it begins with beer, bourbon and wine

 

We will, Thanks! Thanksgiving is time to just reflect on what is important in life. Family and friends, I'll leave it at that.

 

And the troll post of the night goes to

How you doing Hutch? Out with my daughter today competing in her equestrian vaulting, she's definitely a champ. Getting ready for the world competition coming up in a couple years. Won the BC Nationals last year, so hoping for a world victory! Best rider in Canada last year, proud of her outcome today.

 

Very nice.

 

Been gone for a while but glad to see this thread is still truck'in along!
Work, my wife's surgery and dodging a hurricane I have kept me pretty busy.

The good news is I picked up this recently:


LOVE IT!!!

Worked with Toyota of Deland in central Florida.
Bar none best vehicle purchase experience I've ever had! (Ask for Tom S. & Scott L. )

 

Congrats! Nice truck

 

Thanks! I already have 600 miles on it, my only complaint is that the shifting logic is a bit "odd" at times.
It's really not too bad, but it may be worth looking into if I need the shifting TSB done.
Ordered some black weather tech floor mats and they are pretty nice, I would recommend them.

 

I think you got more in yours than I do currently on mine lol. Been off had surgery. I just got some weather tech mats for the front. Eventually I'll buy the Rears. Damn things are expensive even at employee pricing. Almost a must have around here. A lot of guys like the husky but I like the look is the weather techs. What other mods do you have planned?

 

Yeah they are definitely a bit pricey, but I like the look & quality.
I don't really have much planned as far as mods go, maybe some more rugged tires & LED bulbs at some point.
One of the reasons that drew me to the truck is that there wasn't too much I wanted to change on it.
Hope your recovering well from your surgery, my wife can't drive for a month so this truck is going to get broken in fast.

 

Thanks. Mine was nothing crazy just a gallbladder. Should be back at work next week. Already been going for walks and stuff. Hopefully your wife is doing well. Enjoy the truck!

 

Nice. Enjoy your new truck.

 

Not sure if you have used cruise control but that will tell you right away if you will need the transmission shifting TSB.

 

Hope all you folks in the hurricanes path are doing ok. Chores are done and the football game is on the tube. Beautiful October day here so...

 

Thanks. She goes back down to L.A. on Thursday for a week and then Sacramento for more training. Back for Christmas etc and probably back to L.A. in January for the next competition in March. Miss her and all that, but it's her dream to follow and dad's wallet to keep it always alive.

Love that color, congrats!
