What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Have you seen this thread? https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/mod-a-pillar-ram-mount-gps-phone-holder.372250/

 

Replaced my “raptor” lights with smoked ones for a cleaner look.

 

Best trail in VA that I've seen so far.

 

Looks Good, Does anyone sell rear fender well liners that hide the gap between bed and frame.

 

Does Premium make a difference for your truck.....didn’t see, feel a difference in mine, even on long trips.

 

I tried running premium when stock and it maybe idled a little smoother, but no change in performance. It’s supercharged now which is why it takes premium only

 

I’m wondering too!

 

Replaced the struts on my canopy.

 

I use a Cellet phone holder (they also make one that will hold a tablet.
You will have to give up a cupholder: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=cellet&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

 

Replace my front actuator... 4x4 still don't work ...

 

New wheels and tires, New grill, painted OEM exhaust tip bulk and LED interior lights.

 

Finally installed the pocket flats what a pain in the ass that was, but I have finally got the storm trooper look. I do have the storm trooper hitch cover as well

 

Just don't take it shooting.

 

The only difference between different octane fuels is the resistance to pre-ignition. Premium is not better or "high performance", it just resists pre-ignition better than regular octane does. It's essentially harder to ignite.

This is why high performance/supercharged/turbocharged/etc. vehicles typically require premium. The high compression ratio and/or boost makes pre-ignition more likely. The higher octane allows for those higher compression ratios and/or boost levels without damaging the engine

Running a higher octane than what the engine is tuned for usually results in worse gas mileage and worse performance.

 

This might sound dumb, but is your ultragauge giving you an estimated fuel tank level based on remaining fuel and average miles per gallon, or do we somehow have access to the true reported level and I missed it entirely.

 

I have a passing interest in getting one of these, so I just went and googled the alarm. A lot of posts are suggesting that there's a calibration factor that might not be set correctly for the mileage calc.

 

It cant read the true tank data, it guesses based on the input of gals you put in and the amount of fuel you told it you have in the tank. Its annoying to hear so i usually don't use that feature. You have to manually input every time you fill up so it will shut up.

 

She is going up on a lift and under the wrench tomorrow for an upgrade/overhaul of the front end. 130k miles. New 6112 Bilstein's (1st clip), Taco lean spacer, Stainless steel brake lines, OEM LCA, Camber bolts/hardware , outer tie rod ends, and all of the OEM nuts and bolts to put it all back together again.
Getting the work done by my local shop who has been working on the truck for a while

 

It would be great if it could pull that data from Fuelly app/site.
