What did you do TO / WITH your 4th gen Tacoma today?! 👨‍🏭 🧰 📸

[bigbunk62]

Partially removed and reinstalled my front bumper cover this afternoon after hitting a small deer Friday night in upstate NY. Took about an hour to remove the bolts & clips and figure out the assembly method. Got lucky, one alignment tab on the bumper cover had a slight non-structural crack that's not visible. Looks like new again.

On the bright side, got 28 mpg up and back.

Your lucky that’s the only damage you have.could have been a destroyed front end. Glad your alright

Thanks. We were very lucky, only doing about 30mph in town. Saw the mom standing on the right side of the road. Her little one ran in front of me from the left side and I didn't see it until it's ears flashed in front of the passenger headlight. Went back and there was no sign of it.

After waiting over a month for my Greenlane sliders to arrive and watching their install video at least 5 times they finally came in. The install was a breeze and all hardware was present. I went 9.5 years with my 3rd gen Tacoma and never needed them since I don't go offroad, at least not on purpose. However, it is better to have them and not need them rather than need them and not have them. This is a philosophy that I have with other things in my life as well. If they would have been installed at the dealer them my youngest daughter never would have put the first small dent and scratch in my truck the first day of ownership when she opened her door and hit my truck. She wept about it but I reassured her that she was more important to me than a million new trucks. My wife was the one who actually initiated this purchase since she said that my new truck sat up higher than my old truck so she wanted something to step up on to get in this truck. I went with Greenlane since they are one of the few who make aluminum sliders and when I weighed them they were only 28 pounds each which is about half of what steel sliders weigh. They were great since they are in Canada and we were both concerned about tariffs going up on September 1st. The made then in just one week and shipped them out. Great company with a great product.

RTFM and got my Tirerack wheelset TPMS registered, no more dash light telling me to call the dealer...
Managed to squeeze a dump run into the process, 2 birds, 1 trip, LoL.

Haven’t done much since getting back from Vancouver, were banned from hiking or entering the woods at all, but I did my 3rd oil change and tried out a new funnel and I really like it

What funnel is that!?

A Toy inspired me to do this to my Solar Octane Truck. This may be a one of one for the fourth gen.?

You need to be inspired to get wheels and tires lol

I am content with the Tire/Wheel combo that it has currently. If you were to imagine a Harley morphing into a Truck, the wheel/tire combo on my truck fits IMHO.

 

[Taco Ji]

Yeah for sure! What ever makes you happy of course. I just think stock wheels and tires are too stock for my taste.

They are not stock tires
