3rd gen Tacoma Appreciation thread

That hurt my feels a bit, not sure what to do now...

 

Lol, like that ever happened on Tacomaworld.

We need you here, to keep it real.

Even if you are wrong...

 

Things were going so well...

 

Just curious what were the issues with your taco?

 

Afraid to get reported and banned if I reply to that loaded question.

 

By the way you avatar is awesome. Story of my life haha.

 

I think its the story of a lot of TW guys lifes haha

 

I was happy with the 2017 2WD and now really happy with my 2019 4WD...

 

Nice! What made you get 4WD?

 

Same goes for me, I am on my third Tacoma. 2013 Access Cab, 2017 Access Cab and my 2019 Double Cab,No real complaints, maybe a minor pet peeve with the clutch on the 2017

 

Thats nice man! My twin to the north i see.

 

Nice rig man!

 

I appreciate everything about my Tacoma. Does it have quirks, I’m sure it does. None of which bother me though.
Coming from a diesel ZR2, it was only a matter of time before all the emissions failures, dpf issues etc. I feel I got out of it at a good time! I wouldn’t give my tacoma up for anything now that I have it.
I know everyone would go nuts over a diesel Tacoma, but be careful what you wish for. Our lovely EPA here in the US would destroy it. Overseas they are awesome! Here in the states with all the restrictions, I feel people would be disappointed. My 2 cents anyway. Enjoy your Tacoma, I know I will be!

 

Never drove diesel ZR2, how did it drive compared to your tacoma?

 

for what it is, the Tacoma is great. At first there was some transmission shift issues, but it seems to have quit doing that on its own within the first 35,000, which is where im at now with my '17 trd sport.
there are things about it that irk me, but thats mostly my gripe with Toyota for being such cheap bastards and not being able to unlock the doors from the passenger side using the sense and crap like that, but i love it nonetheless, especially since i have done a bunch of MESO mods to it

 

Very nice taco, dig the fog lights! Are those lamin-x?

 

they're just some cheapo laminate amber sheets i put over the stock fogs for now. they're garbage- came off ebay. just wanted a diff look until i install som KC lights fogs or Baja Designs fogs

 

@Mrtacoman88
next up is BLH mod- i have the amber signals now, and Meso side led markers, so i'm ready to take my headlamps apart and paint/mod. After first of year i will install either Bilstein 5100's or Falcon shocks all around, Camburg uniball uca's.
i like the fj steelies so will probably keep running them, just put new rubber on em.
then the last big mod will be CBI front/rear bumpers.
then its just little stuff like skid plate, sliders, more Meso stuff, leather interior, trd pro exhaust.... it just keeps growing....the never ending list

 

I absolutely love my truck more and more every day! I have never once said “maybe I made the wrong choice” this truck fits my life perfectly! Every time I add a mod even a little one just makes me more and more happy to see it in the driveway! I have owned a Ram 1500 and F150 and I loved the space of them but I also love the space of my Taco it’s just me and the wife and dogs so midsize is more than enough! I can take my taco to so many more places I wouldn’t have been able to fit my other trucks. I truly hope to have this truck until gas is no longer a thing and I plan to add a few more Toyota’s to the family now! Could not possibly be happier!
Thanks @Mrtacoman88 for starting this thread some times people need a reminder there trucks are not a POS.
