    Gased up and headed to VA.

    This 38 gallon tank is sweet. Truck says I've been averaging 14.5 mpg. I've not yet done the actual math.

    :notsure:

    I think I’m done with the colder weather.

    Morning stockers:hattip: hammer and thumb meeting equals pain. It took some time for me to figure this out, that’s why they called me sunny as a child.:D

    coming from a 2020 Tundra, my stock mpg mixed is around 15mpg and highway is around 17-19mpg.
    38 gallon gas tank surely is nice.

    is this considered stock modding?

    Installed Diode Dynamics C1R pod in the back next to license plate, I wanted a red color rear fog light that can also be served as a chase light.
    I like how DD's C1R has three modes, bright white for reverse, dim red for running light, and bright red I will be wiring into the switch panel for rear fog/chase.

    Whole lotta Tunnie Love going on around here lately.

    Making me wanna love my Lucille all that much more in protest.

    She’s been working hard for me the last 3 weeks.

    5500 miles, 7 states, and multiple bed configuration swaps to accomodate college moves, maternity moves, and general utility.

    Tacoma!!! Remember?

    Huge DD fan here. Also running the C1R (old fashioned way, in the reciever) and the SS3 Pro fogs. Excellent products. Great idea to run a pair of C1R in the bumper and leave the hitch open. How'd you accomodate the splicing?

    I also purchased their wiring harness, I believe their new harness come with a quick dis-connectable bright red function wire so I can re direct that to my control panel in the cabin, for bright white and dim white they are just part of the trailer wiring harness that got plugged into the trailer wiring behind the bumper.

    Nice wheels! I just bought a new set of those and DIYed my own wheelcap with TRD vinyl.

    Scavenged from a dead FJ in the Land of Lincoln. Made Lucille very happy, and they're OEM, so it keeps the malcontents on this thread from giving me any more grief.

    We'll have to wait for upper management to confirm, but being from PA is definitely a check-mark against you :rofl:

    I was in Erie (Fairview) Yesterday,

    Interesting part of the country. How does the rest of PA view Erie? I swear I've driven past it a couple hundred times, never got off the highway save for a tank of gas.
