The Adventures of "Gerald" & Jessica: Poor Woman's Build

My Gerald is growing up! Breaks my heart.
Just had him serviced. Now he's got some fresh oil to keep him running good .

10,253 miles in just over 7 months.

 

Gerald has some Wet Okole's on the way!
Also going to do a detail/wax and some scratch repair very soon.

 

Mod Week 5/17/2017

• Kenwood sub/amp combo installed
• Re dipped right bumper cap
• Wet wokole front covers installed
• Center console tray
• Wash/wax with new foam sprayer
• Scratch removal

Finally installed Gerald's sub and amp with the help of my brother. Wet okoles came in from the group buy. Added a tray ontop the organizer in my center consol, and gave Gerald a deep clean with a wash and wash. I used meguires scratch x 2.0.....It rid of one scuffed area immediately but only had minimal effects on the others. I need to get touchup paint for a deep scratch in the tailgate that came from the garage door.

No doubt ill be working on some scratches again next week as mo4wd is hitting up Flat Nasty this Sunday .

2 predator steps were sacrificed to the offroading gods and subsequently removed on the 22nd.

 

They're coming! I get paid tomorrow! Just need to pay my bills right quick and I'll be putting my order in.
I made a irresponsible decision and threw the onboard air along with buttons on my 0% card. Oh well. No other big mods until Gerald's 1st birthday, haha.

 

MOD Weekend 6/7 & 6/8
- onboard air installed
-spidertrax 1.25" installed
-painted yota center emblem on wheels.

 

We went for a little drive when finished, No budge. And then i drove 250miles home and still nice and tight. Will probably look at them again after i fill up next.

 

Gerald had his 15,0000 mile service today. Pretty much right at 15k. Seeger toyota was even nice enough to change his oil!

 

It's Gerald's first birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A year ago today I drove off the lot with my beast of a Taco. I love this truck emmensly. Please click the link below to see a album of photos of our first year together.

[I will upload photos individually on here when I get to better internet]

I forgot to add this last week when Gerald turned 1!
All tanks and miles accounted for starting my first fuel-up after driving off the lot.

 

Gerald is now just over 50,000 miles at over 3 years old. Haven't made much major enhancements this year aside from the lift due to work and moving. Attended Appalachian Toyota Round Up in August of this year. I'm hoping to attend at least one event this coming year and come back to focus on the truck mods once some financial obligations are sorted out.

 

that popcorn from August was getting stale, thanks for an update
the blue and pink really work well on your Taco
