What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Found my first gen for sale from where I traded it in two weeks ago on my 2020. They used the photos they took from when I was test driving the one I bought. It still has all my stuff inside it and on it. I took the front plate, hitch, and some other stuff off. Also they are crazy with the price.

 

Those are the expensive Baja Designs wide sport fogs. I left everything except my Hikari LED headlight bulbs, the rav4 spotter side mirrors and some meso ultimate maps and ultimate dome. They told me I could keep the Clazzios but, after 5 years of use, I was worried I could damage them taking them off. Then they would not be worth selling. I sold all the stock fogs and head/tail lights and stuff as soon as I replaced them. So I am trying to sell my meso stuff and mirrors locally. Don't want to ship. One new set of ultimate maps is amber and I think he quit making those years ago. I already have a bunch of the same mods in carts for my next 2nd gen Taco. Hoping to finalize that purchase tomorrow or Monday. Then gotta find a deal on wheels, tires and 5100's.

 

Yes I know prices are nuts. I am buying a 2009 AC Prerunner V6 with 75k miles for what they want for your 2003.

 

If you decide to ship. Would love those amber maps.

 

I think I saw a RAM TRX with some kind of graphic on it, that looked like it could be a company vehicle. The truck could have very well been a lifted Rebel, or standard 1500 but I think it was a TRX.

 

Yes I did love it. After only driving it 200 miles since February I was ready to let it go. Every time I walked past it sitting in the back yard I thought "damn that's $30k just collecting bird poop" so I threw it on facebook and sold it the next day for my full asking price site unseen. 1 month after buying the new 2016 I sold my 2008 with 59.5k miles. 6 months later I realized I made a mistake. Now I am correcting that mistake although a 2nd gen will never look as good as the 3rd gen. I can add a HU with touchscreen, NAV and a backup camera, then Clazzios, then wheels , tires and shocks. I will be a happy camper with that 4.0 back under the hood. This is the 2008 I sold after I bought the 2016. The 2016 was def the better "looking" truck

 

Crap... That bed setup just inspired me. Why are the boxes facing inside?

 

Baby it’s not the jeans that make you fat it’s your fat that does it.

 

one fuse for the original circuit (power source ) and other fuse for the OC3.0 USB

 

I agree it should be that way but it isn’t. The fuse for the original circuit is the blank space on the Add-A-Circuit.

Saw this Taco with a sick ass wrap. Wanted to but I couldn’t get better pictures since I was on the highway. Wonder if he’s on TW.

 

Not tall enough to easily get stuff out from the sides. By just stepping in bed its much easier. The case on the roof I can just use step bars. Not the way most will do it but works for me

 

lol. Okay, I get it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but it’s different which makes it pretty cool. Not necessarily something I would do but I can appreciate it.

 

Pulled the blue painters tape off of the front end from my drive home from the dealership last weekend at my friends detailing shop. Had the front bumper, mirrors, and headlights wrapped in Xpel Ultimate paint protection film; the truck hand washed and clayed for the first time (told the dealer to leave it dirty off the truck and don’t wash it); black badge overlays on the doors and tailgates.

My goodness…..I LOVE this truck.

 

Accidently Modified the rear door window on my Leer 100R today. The increased airflow is phonomenal!

 

I'm done for now. Just love this new Tacoma!!

Rewired the connection from under the hood to the roof rack lights using bonded 4-wire squeezed vertically in the crack outside the windshield gutter. Way more stealth now.
