What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Any info on this ?

 

Was great working with you! Love the build and can’t wait to see what the future holds for it

 

I’ve had it three years. I use it almost every day except the past year because of the pandemic I don’t drive anywhere. It is pretty decent, check out my build thread for a guide on rewiring the switch.

I have a diamond NMO dual band (2M/440) which has a lower wind profile than a firestik. I assume your running a cb so the pl-259 mount on the firestik might be a bit tight and the coax tough for 28 MHz to flex well, definitely need a low profile 90deg mount. ( I use a 19 inch mag mount for cb and it is almost as good as my FSB4 firestik was.) That I mounted bed rail off center to give decent reflection left and forward.

I think I’d go old school with the firestik. They are tough as nails, put it on a spring mount and just ignore the garage dragging sounds, or mount it lower as a cb may get a few miles but nothing like hams 50 no matter where the rf plane is. (Yes, I’m about to get flamed for saying it)

 

Glad to see my taxes going to good use.

 

Thank you...I am retired. Thank You for the automatic tailgate lock and sequential mirror turn signals too that came this week. Everybody needs to get back to work..... ... Shhhhh wife doesn't know yet

 

I’m still waiting on my overpaid taxes from last yr! Going on 13 months now and still won’t release… what a great yr, 2020, to pull that shit

 

Got my Rough Country soft cover put on. Luckily, got mine put on before bad weather moved in earlier today.

 

I finally found time to install the OEM power tailgate lock. It was a moderately easy installation but still took me almost 3 hours due to taking my time and making sure that everything was neatly in place, nice and tight. Photo of my 2018 Tacoma Sport below.

 

Excellent video and channel. Subscribed, and thank you.

 

Is that the regular or short version? Thanks!

 

I'm working on that last one!

 

I really appreciate it, thank you. FOB is Longwood, I'm in the neighborhood.

 

What strobe controller did you get?

 

Oh, are you sure that's the one I meant?

 

I've had mine in for a couple thousand miles now. I don't notice any performance difference, but I do notice my wallet being thicker after only spending $25 and not $400.

 

Looks just like the Tundra that I had. Congrats on the new ride!

 

I put my down payment on a Vagabond Drifter a few minutes ago !

 

We haven't even come close to paying the taxes that this money comes from. That's a few decades doen the road!

 

I know what you mean. I was not satisfied with the RAM mounts that are out there so I engineered my own improved version. The final prototype should be done this week, then off to the paint shop for an inconspicuous coating of flat black paint. Patent pending of course.
