    I have this one and it fits behind the back seat. I also have a Harbor Freight 12v 100PSI pump for emergencies; wouldn't use it for regular use. The Dewalt normally sits in the garage and is used as my go to pump. Great overall pump since I can use it with the battery.

    Bunch of stuff bolted on, some cool, some not
    +1 on this. I've only had it a couple of months but I've used it at least 6 times on my 33s and I'm back on the road in no time.

    I run this: https://www.viaircorp.com/portables/400p-auto

    It's rated for 35's, so it fills up stock tires in no time at all.

    Viair is a top tier brand, and I've had their systems running OBA (with tanks) in a couple of my past jeeps. I went portable with the tacoma only because I didn't want to plumb and mount another tank somewhere.

    No complaints at all.

    Sorry for cut it off....

    I've seen some 2nd gen mounted an inflator on passenger side under the engine hood. Forgot took the pictures, does anyone know the model that we can mount under the hood of 3rd gen? Or does anyone already did. Appreciate

    Convenient, yes but super slow. I can air up 3 of my 33" tires in the time my friend does one of his stock size tires with the DeWalt.

    The Viair 300p is an awesome one to get and my recommendation

    Extremely portable, and plenty of capacity.

    Edit: Something ate my photos




    However, I prefer CO2.

    +1 for Viair. I have the 300P and 285/70/17 tires. No problem airing up all 4 from 20-25 PSI to 38. It usually takes 2-3 minutes per tire.

    Thank you for the recommendations everyone. After my third puncture in two months (screw, screw, nail), I purchased the Viair88p.
