    3.5 engine, yes. I've replaced it a few times now and none of them have looked like this. This is the O'Rileys brand.

    Some filters from Toyota are starting to use them. The 4runner has one, not sure on the Tacoma. I'd leave it, makes it easier to knock the bugs off.

    Missed this question, prolly was answered, but yes, i run a dash cam on my work van.
    Dash cam videos of off road action are generally boring as hell, unless it's your video.

    I've been meaning to do this for a year, but going down to az helped motivate me. 50% on the windshield and completely blacked out the sunroof. It looks much darker on the picture than in person. Surprisingly I notice only very slight difference from no tint. Kinda disappointed because I wanted it to help keep some of the hood glare away. Oh well, should help keep the interior a little cooler at least.

    I use this one from Pep Boys
    https://www.pepboys.com/product/details/656474/01753
    There are other options, this one has been in the van for a few years now and doesn't seem to be affected by heat. It's also kind of basic.

    Moving it here to not confuse that tread.

    Not trying to bust you but I did it last year with 33's (DURATRACS!) and never touched the locker button. Was I just dumb and lucky :D

    Stock Tacoma could do it just fine.
    You were dumb and lucky but only because of the duratracs

    That's only when we run it backwards in February.
    It's a Michelin thing. You wouldn't understand.
