    Lots of us do things to our Tacomas regularly; oil, diff, plugs, brakes, tires, the list goes on.
    We have these awesome trucks that are a nearly perfect balance of power, size, and utility.
    So, what did you do with your Tacoma today?

    Today my wife and I went and picked up a set of French double doors. We ended up placing three 4x4x8' (I needed the 4x4 for another project anyway, rather than just 2x4) across the bed top then putting the doors on top of that using a moving blanket in the center between the 4x4 and the doors to prevent the doors themselves from falling down onto the 4x4. The whole thing was cargo strapped down to the bed and we hightailed it home in our jerry-rigged flat bed!
    I just finished the installation and am relaxing with a beer and a fire in the firepit.
    Pretty good for one day's work.

    I loaded the brush mower on the trailer. Hauled it over to a 3/4 acre lot and mowed it.
    Does that count? It was TODAY too.

    Absolutely! It ALL counts! That yours was productive is icing on the cake! I think our trucks get bored with just driving back and forth to Home Depot or work.

    Today I took my daughter exploring for interesting places where we probably would get in trouble for being. Found a few interesting dead ends and sketchy deserted sites, some places where there were more potholes than pavement, more abandoned buildings than not.
    I got to explain my perspective on 'trouble'; 'Could we get into trouble? Maybe... Could we find something interesting? Probably... Is the Interesting greater than the Trouble? Yeah... Then the risk is worth the reward, and that is how great stories are made.

    Did a full interior detail, and I hand-washed the front exterior and ceramic coated everything (bumper, headlights).

    Edit* Rip, I should have read the first post closer lol. I guess I drove it to work haha.

    Don't let her get bored! You have a privileged driveway, what with a Tacoma holding it down.

    Thats' fine! I think I"m pulling in people who expect the 'What did you do to your Tacoma today'. I may have to edit the post title.
