Random Friday-thread: What's one thing you want to change abt. Tacoma?

Let me have a go:

1. If you could, what's one thing you'd change about Tacoma? (besides eng. power, seat position, and LED lighting)
Chrome--definitely Toyota's bad idea to add chrome . . . everywhere. (I mean, it's not *horrible* but still)

2. If you had one sentence to say to Mike Sweers, what would it be?
Don't cheap out, man--rear disc brakes!

3. What is your most favorite mod you've done so far?
Haven't got to do much, but I really like the interior LEDs that I added

4. What mods do you avoid/regret?
I would probably avoid suspension/wheel spacers :\

5. What's one thing you absolutely love about your Tacoma?
Definitely the styling--best-looking (midsize) truck out there.

 

I wish it was a BMW with a body kit like the new Supra.

 

I would rebuild the Tacoma. I would make it better, stronger, faster. Gentlemen we have the technology, the Tacoma can be that truck.

 

It's a mid-size truck.

 

Yes!!!

 

The Tacomas GVWR.

 

True. That's something you might not think of

 

This

 

I would change one thing.
Seat height to floor/ seat height to steering wheel clearance. My legs are a bit long for the Tacoma.

 

1. If you could, what's one thing you'd change about Tacoma? (besides eng. power, seat position, and LED lighting)
The lack of interior storage. I miss the little trays on each side of the steering wheel and two i glass cubbies that my 2012 had.

2. If you had one sentence to say to Mike Sweers, what would it be?
No

3. What is your most favorite mod you've done so far?
Still stock. But it will be tires.

4. What mods do you avoid/regret?
On my 2012 I regretted going with a single leaf AAL for so long. When I finally moved up to OME leafs the ride was so much better.

5. What's one thing you absolutely love about your Tacoma?
The LED headlights and power rear window are awesome. But really, I love how silent it is compacted to my 2012. Nobody talks about how much less wind noise the 3rd gems have vs 2nds. Yes. The 4.0 is better. But the 3rd Gen is massively nicer on the highway.

 

Very nice response!
I can agree with you about the lack of front storage, but you've gotta agree the rear seat storage is awesome!

 

First thing I did was make these spacers and install them on the back of the driver's seat. This really took the pressure off my hams on long drives.

 

1. If you could, what's one thing you'd change about Tacoma? (besides eng. power, seat position, and LED lighting)
That tall ass reverse gear on MTs.
2. If you had one sentence to say to Mike Sweers, what would it be?
Here's my resume, give me a call with my salary and start date.
3. What is your most favorite mod you've done so far?
Circumcising my shift knob
4. What mods do you avoid/regret?
Regret - none. Avoid - I dunno, anything adding unnecessary weight I reckon.
5. What's one thing you absolutely love about your Tacoma?
Only one thing? Don't make me choose.

Edit: I should probably clarify this:

I hated how the OEM shift knob felt and looked, so I replaced it. Much better driving experience now.

 

1. Lower front seat heights.

 

Waaaiiiit . . . you want to LOWER the front seat height? Isn't that, like, the opposite of what most people want?

 

Change AT 5th gear to be midway between 4th and 6th. And give an option in diff ratios.

 

Need more cup holders.

 

There are already 13 cup holders (in a double cab)
. . . You need more?

 

i get very thirsty while driving.

Kidding. I was being facetious. This is a Friday thread after all.
