What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

The little electric from harbor freight is a winner. It's nice to be able to pressure wash motorcycles and side by sides without blasting the seals and decals off them. I figure if it's not destroying the ORV's it's safe enough for use on vehicles.

 

Bought a meso keyfob. I had good intentions to keep the original key fob intact, but my impatience got the best of me. HATE that little transponder

Will get it cut tomorrow morning.

 

Got the cover. Now I have to find the time to put it on. I chose a soft cover due to its ease to put on/take off and the fact that it will allow me to use the entire bed.

 

Bedlined a grill overlay and installed

 

do you think the extra bulk is any more annoying than the OG keyfob?

 

I've only used it once, but it worked great. It wont be comparable to a gas one, only 1800 psi. But for car washing and basic walkway and house siding wash downs, it seems like it'll be awesome. I pay more attention to the guys on the obsessed garage Facebook group and others like it. Random Karens on Amazon will always have something negative to report. Just know that for every complaint on there, there's probably 100 people who are perfectly happy and didn't review it.

Right off the bat, you'll need a longer hose. I think the one that comes with it is 15'. The foam cannon that's included works great. Very easy to set up, runs smooth. Only issue I had was that it wouldn't turn on after I got the truck all soapy and wiped it by hand. I looked at the manual, I looked online, couldn't figure it out. It was pressure locked. I took the hose off slowly and put it back on, worked fine.

 

I made a bed platform with some 2x10s and some plywood. May not be a permanent solution, but it was cheap. Still need to get 2 more handles. I bet the decked drawers are nice but this is one thing that I could make myself. Also, stickers because why not

 

Speaking for myself, no. I wear slim jeans most of the time too, and i've definitely stabbed myself more times than I'd like to admit with my original key sticking out.

The only annoying thing about it so far was getting the transponder out.

 

I think it is. I got a Meso key fob and I like it and think it’s well made but didn’t like the extra thickness and switched it back. If I had a keyed ignition I think it would be worth the switch.

 

Pickaroon from Menards?

 

I got it off Amazon. It was some German name. But ya that thing is a life saver! Really helps moving firewood rounds into a splitter

 

120,000 Miles. Original owner. Second set of plugs. I change them every 60k

 

capt got it right, I believe it's my HD bucket that sits in front of my truck in the garage I use for car washing

 

Well here's what a pressure washer and some ArmorAll wheel cleaner can do.

 

I thought you might have had some blue and reds in there. I was like damn, this guys got some balls.

 

nope, just an orange and a blue bucket reflecting back! I already have plenty of illegal lights anyways, don't need anything impersonating an officer too...

 

As an SR5 guy, I think the meso flipkey fob is awesome. I need to take it apart and tighten the spring a little to remove some slight rattle I'm experiencing right now, but that's a known/solvable issue with it that I was unfortunate enough to experience out of the box.

The lady at Ace was super sketched out about copying my key to the fob, had to call her manage over for approval. She seemed to not care, and didn't even charge me for it. She just didn't want to take the liability for potentially messing it up.

 

Installed the TGP Sony XAV-9500ES kit, Morimoto 3rd brake light, Total Chaos bed stiffeners, Baja Designs Squadron fog lights, and swapped my AJT Designs door covers for the Meso Customs covers. The brake light install was much harder than it should've been. I kept dropping the damn body clips which made this take longer than it needed to lol.

 

I drilled some holes in my bed… it was Total Chaos!

 

Looks good! I just did the same. Are you going to cut your mat around the stiffeners or keep them laying over? I'm leaning towards just having mine lay over.
