What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Last piece for my interior has been received. I have a crap ton of chrome delete kits, lighting, etc. to put in now, just wanted to do it all at once.



Sooooon.

 

Nice looking ride and I love the wheels.

 

FYI for anyone looking for a good deal. 2018 4x4 Offroad DCSB with 33k miles for asking price of $26k. If it's not a scammer then it is a great deal. (910) 747-2525

That's cool. Where'd you find it?

Thanks. Looks like it's made out of Unobtanium for at least a year.

 

@Goatfrog -- not sure if someone has shared this but according to their earlier announcement, it was for 2020 and newer. See https://pressroom.toyota.com/step-up-new-tacoma-trd-lift-kit-now-available/

 

Yeah, I missed his previous run. This time around I setup several calendar reminders for my PC, phone and watch to make sure I got one.

 

Went to the dealership for maintenance. They only rotated my tires and no oil change. It’s only every 10,000 miles? That was my last complimentary service. So, in 5,000 miles I’m doing it myself. Love the way that played out (sarcasm), currently have 23,500 miles and no more free service.

only 2 new Tacomas on the lot. No Tundras at all and maybe two 4 Runners. Said they have not received any new stock in a while.

 

i just drove by here on my way to/from chick-fil-a. i was like, where the hell are all the tacoma's at? i dont think i've ever seen it that empty before.

 

Was down there visiting and needed to go to that service department... they were pricks to say the least.

 

Thanks. I had only seen the document that someone posted a while back that mentioned what was excluded. I’m guessing they still won’t do it because I have a long bed, but I’m going to contact the other 3 dealerships nearby and ask just to see.

 

Installed a 32” light bar. Had to use the zinc 6” corner bracket method for it to line up with the bumper hole. Now to get a harness and switch. Any recommendations?

 

purchased grill at my local Toyota dealer
The garnish is the radar sensor for the tss safety system also came from the dealer

 

Light bar didn't come with a harness and switch?

you'll need to find out the the amp / volt it uses to make sure you get the right one.

 

Got it from another TW member. No harness. How do I find out volts/amps

 

I did both. They’re wired into my reverse lights and into a switch.
Comes in handy when booking up the trailer.

 

Was there a brand name on it?

Could look up the website for that product and find there, most have it listed in the specifications. If not you could email the company


Edit: I looked up a similar size light bar and it shows 300W (not sure if that's de-rated) to give a rough estimate, again not sure what yours is though but can't be too far off.

 

This is basically nationwide. Most dealers I have searched have an average of 3 Tacomas on the lot and then some have 1 with 5 or 6 "incoming". That is why KBB values are so high. KBB on my 2016 with 25k miles is $32.4k low to $35.8k high for KBB private party. The low trade in nearly $31k. I would take $30.5k in a second.

 

thats a steep hill
