MARYLAND TACOMAS

Greetings and welcome to MD. The Navy moved me from Corpus Christi last year back up to Baltimore. What were you doing in Port L?

 

Oh wow, how did you like Corpus? And, that's myl hometown as of last year, DC is certainly new to me.

 

Yea I figure it will be around 300 if that's the case then I'm not turning it in cause that's not much more than my deductible. He fixed a dent in my old Chevy before for I think it was $250 so so if it's under 400 or 500 I'll probably just pay out of pocket

 

I just wish someone could pull the door, pop the dent out and pound everything straight, then strip, prime, paint.
I'm afraid with filler that if someone slams the door one to many times, it'll eventually crack the paint where the dent was

 

The sheet metals kinda thin an the dent is well deep but small in overall size it's gonna be hard to try an pull or beat out

 

Speaking of that my first thought was to just prime it an have a local pinstriper air brush a bullet hole in its spot haha

 

Do it haha

Has anyone here gotten a TWSS gift yet? I hadn't seen anyone post up in the other thread, but have seen a few saying they sent one to MD so I was just curious. I want pictures! Lol

 

So I decided not to turn it in to my insurance. I got a quote from the body shop the me and my dads friends with yesterday he said it would be right around $350 so im going to go that route since my deductible was 250 anyway an would change the price of my insurance if I make a claim so it does in Wednesday and I could possible have it by the weekend.

 

I came to the same decision when I had my tailgate repaired this past summer. Not worth the hassle for the $100.

 

Greetings.. Just wanted to poke in here and say heyas to all the Marylander Taco guys in here.

I frequent the boards but don't usually post much. I figured I'd try and get more active here.

I have a Gray 2013 TRD Sport DCSB and live in Chesapeake Beach, MD.

The main things I've had done so far are TRD Exhaust, Extang Hard Tri-Fold, Hardwired Escort 9500xi with BlendMount, and LineX'd Skidplate.

I'm looking to upgrade my tires from the stock Duelers P265/65/R17 to Goodyear Duratrac's P265/70/R17, Load C, OWL.

Any thoughts on these tires, and best PSI for Front/back?

I'll try and get some pics up soon.

Welcome back

 

welcome!! ive actually heard recently on a thread somewhere on here I read tht people don't like the duratracs. I don't remember y but id look into it if u were u. I have a feeling the two biggest complaints were the road noise and tread life, but I could be wrong.

 

The side walls are thin too

 

I have 265/75r16 load C duratracs on my 4runner and taco and i love'em. My brother has them on his 13 taco and he likes them also. I was surprised how quiet they are on the highway considering the aggressive tread design. I have read that the load C have sidewall issues when playing on the rocks. I've also read here some have had balancing issues but i mounted & balanced 4 sets so far with no problems.

 

I would so leave that just the way it is.

 

Not all of us dig the trail raisin look

 

If you think that qualifies for a "raisin look" you need to hit the trails more.

What he's got there adds character.

 

hahahahahahahaha I just noticed you changed your location Craig.. I just lost my shit.

 

I'm sitting poolside at the grand Floridian and surfing on my iPad while my kids tire themselves out in the pool.

 

sounds horrible

I'm sitting on the couch staring at a christmas tree, drinking a beer, eating ice cream, and watching tv. lol typical weeknight.
