  1. Has anyone successfully tinted the taillights? Please share!

    My unsolicited opinion- Tinted taillights suck. I know it's not A E S T H E T I C, but sometimes it can be nearly impossible for folks behind you to tell when you're braking or indicating a turn during the daytime if the sun is at the right angle. Don't be the tinted taillight guy. But if you...
  2. What did you drive before your Tacoma?

    2016 Mazda CX-5. It was fun to drive, cheap to maintain, and never had a single issue in 7+ years of ownership. Absolutely fantastic car.
  3. Looking for part number- the upgraded snorkel cover that wont fall off.

    Ah, yeah that sucks. We've had a lot of hail in the area with all of those storms so I've been on edge trying to keep both vehicles safe any time it starts moving in. I love a good springtime storm, but tornados and hail really suck.
  4. Looking for part number- the upgraded snorkel cover that wont fall off.

    Tornado chasing in a brand new truck? Oooof. Whatever blows your skirt up, I suppose 🤣
  5. Monthly Payments!

    $0/mo here. I put 50% down at purchase and financed the rest at 6.11% for 60mos, which ended up making it right around $400/mo. (this was June of 2024) - I just ended up paying it off after 10mos. I'd rather give those payments to myself for a high-yield savings instead. Gotta start saving now...
  6. OEM front tow hook upgrade

    These should fit all models, as far as I know. Mine is a non-hybrid and they fit just fine.
  7. OEM front tow hook upgrade

    Yep-yep! P/N: PT974-35250 If you get some, they will reuse your stock transit hook bolts, which are 17mm. 75ft-lb torque spec for install.
  8. Window Squeal when rolling up or down

    My driver front window does this occasionally... of course, it gets opened and closed the most. We had a particularly dusty springtime here, so I know the tracks have gotten quite a bit inside of them. It goes away for a while after a wash or rain, and even longer if I clean out the tracks with...
  9. OEM front tow hook upgrade

    My packing slip shows 5.0lbs even, so roughly 2.5lbs each feels about right after holding them. They're surprisingly chunky.
  10. OEM front tow hook upgrade

    Agreed. I would not have gotten the skid plate if not for the mods on my previous vehicle. I had a set of BBS wheels and an aftermarket exhaust - selling those after I traded it on the Tacoma paid for my skid plate and tonneau cover haha
  11. OEM front tow hook upgrade

    I snagged some OEM tow hooks for about $100 shipped over the holiday weekend. They arrived today, so I had to toss them on real quick. I was a little unsure of having some red accent on the otherwise white/black truck, but I'm digging it. :sunglasses:
  12. Front Passenger Door Clicking Noise

    Holy crap that sounds awful. I think I've opened doors of wrecked cars that sounded less bad 🤣 Yeah, I would bring that to the dealer's attention immediately. If I had to guess without seeing it, I'd assume something is really messed up with the door check strap (the plastic arm in the middle...
  13. Adding Stickers to Rear Window??

    Back in my teenage days, I had a handful of back window stickers on my first truck for things like my exhaust, suspension, stereo, etc... but I'm not really into doing that anymore. I think it kinda clutters up an already small back window on these trucks and I feel like it just gives asshole...
  14. Took a Break From Toyota - Big Mistake, HUGE Mistake. But I'm Back Where I Belong

    Nice truck! I grew up in a "Ford family" - all of us had them. Multiple generations of F150s and such. I truly believe Ford made great trucks in the 80s/90s, but I couldn't be paid to own one now. I finally talked my dad into a Tundra about a year before I got my Tacoma and now we both love our...
  15. Ice cap 2024 Tacoma

    I'm generally not into solid black wheels on any vehicle, but these look good! That pinstriping looks pretty sharp as well. Nice ride!
  16. New 2025 Tacoma TRD Off-Road

    NIce video, Ryan! Good to have you here. Before I got my Tacoma, I was considering the CX-50 to replace a first gen CX-5 and your videos on those were helpful in selling me on them. Of course, I ended up going another direction once these trucks came out, but nonetheless I enjoy the content!
  17. Break-in period

    Seems to mirror my experience. I never thought my truck ran or shifted "bad" by any means, but just felt a little rough around the edges early on. I'm just under 7k now, but around the 4-5k mile mark, I feel like it "softened up" in a good way. Engine seems a little less spastic and gear shifts...
  18. Leer 100XQ Cap / Canopy installed

    My first vehicle was a '92 F-150 Flareside that had a Leer cap on it from the previous owner. First thing I did with that truck was remove it because my super-cool 16 year old self thought they were dorky and intended for old grandpas. Now I see them on these trucks and think "that's pretty...
  19. Car Wash Friday

    Love me some Chemical Guys. Some of their stuff is a little overhyped (and overpriced), but they have some great cleaners and air fresheners.
  20. Car Wash Friday

    Nothing better than a shiny truck and a cold beverage. Cheers to the weekend, everybody! 🍻
