The 2.7L Single Cab Thread

Hey Fink I like that shell that's V ? I haven't seen a lot of shells that sit in top of the bed rails like that. Oh and if you get aftermarket fog lamps the 90 dollar set off eBay I got three months ago leak water into them every time I wash it now.

 

Hauled a small tractor for my dad about 60 miles yesterday. Truck pulled it great.

 

Hey man! Thanks! Yep - that's the ARE V-Series. Honestly, I went with that particular model because it sat up on the bed rails. I think with the black trim showing through, it looks awesome. I personally don't like the way some shells "skirt" over the rails.

I appreciate the advice on the eBay fogs. Let me know if you have any other questions about the shell or want more pics or anything.

That's probably right in the sweet spot for the Tacoma. I found hauling anywhere from 2,000-3,000lbs was when the Tacoma behaved the best while hauling.

OEM-style aftermarket.

 

That sux. Mine have been solid. Are you running the bulbs that came with them? Sometimes these AM kits come with shit bulbs and the seal on the bulb is not very good. Before installing the lamps, I recommend swapping the bulbs out for a good brand. You can get a pair of Sylvania H11 bulbs from WallyWorld for $15. In my case I went with some PIAA Ion Plasma Yellows.

 

Thanks for the info!

That's when you kick in the NOS (turn off the A/C).

I took mine for a 800 mile road trip last weekend.
Was cursing myself the entire way, especially through the hills of TN

 

Just ordered the new GoPro Hero. Just the basic one. Going to use it as a dash cam mostly, but also as a basic play cam. For $129.99 and 1080p30 or 720p60, I couldn't pass it up. Just wish it could support 64GB SD cards.
