Hello From Houston

I actually don’t own a Tacoma yet…I am still driving my ‘04 G35 Infiniti around town. However, there is some light at the end of the tunnel. My older brother has owned a Tacoma for the last 7 years (2006 TRD black 4x2) and I fell in love with it on one trip to Big Bend State Park. Ripping through the hills and sand I was loving every second of it. I am actually a Registered Nurse (Male) in Houston and I have finally stuffed enough cash under my mattress to pull the trigger on a 3rd gen. It’s a 2020 Double cab SR5 Black out 4x4 (no more spinning tires in the desert sand). I am currently awaiting delivery of the vehicle through carmax. Yes, it is a used taco, but not like your moms velvet one. It’s only got 37k miles and I’m excited to call it my own. I came looking at the forum in search of a LED headlight harness (prepping for its arrival) (Too damn excited). This is officially my first truck and I’m glad I went with it and I haven’t even laid eyes on the damn thing. Anyway, my call sign is InfiniteTACO because of the whole Infiniti was my first car. Anyway, nice to meet everyone, look forward to learning a lot.

Howdy neighbor and Welcome

 

Welcome, I actually live in Houston waaaaaaay back in 1982-83, mostly construction work, before the 2nd belt even existed, loved to go to Goode Company for BBQ and beer, lived just inside the (original) belt between Westheimer and Richmond, went to see a game in the Astrodome (Cubs) when it was still in use, found out Texans do NOT put beans in their chili .....etc.

 

@TacoGlenn I must be and outlier because I definitely put beans in my chili…

 

I don't know what your plans are for new truck but I have a set of total chaos bed stiffeners I don't need if interested

 

As I am fairly new, what are the purpose of bed stiffeners? Is the Tacoma bed not strong?

 

If you want to add a camper top or bed rack they help support sides of bed from cracking and racking outward at top and add extra tie downs . there is a thread on them I almost bought a camper but did not never installed stiffeners Enjoy Holiday Hot Humid already stay cool

 

If you would be willing to ship I'd be interested in buying these. If so, how much shipped to Minnesota?

 

send me a PM thing we might work it out was looking for 150 local pickup I don't have venmo or that stuff
