What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Looks great!

I hope the exposed nuts don't scratch the hell out of things.

Me, I'd have run some wood sleepers that were slightly taller than the nuts .

Good luck on the surgery.

 

Finally getting tires put on. The local Firstone told me that 5 of my wheel studs would have to be broken off and wanted to charge me $400 dollars to do the work. Long story short over charging me on parts and come to find out no wheel studs were stripped. I found this out because in an attempt to be more self sufficient I decided to do the work myself. SMH. It's so hard to find a trusted shop or business now a days.

 

I had been looking for M12-1.25 in button head and no hits on that. I found thinner heads and a Fastener Caps. The dogs beds will be on top of those for this trip which was the priority. I will get them taken care of!

 

Places like Florida, the police will pull you over if they think your tint is too dark. Dark tint gives them a reason to check you out.

 

I'm not sure this is accurate. I see way more tinted vehicles in the south than up here in Michigan.

I do believe if you are driving in a manner that draws an officers attention, then yes, you gonna get the stop. If they find nothing to ticket you for, you will get the warning or worse, the ticket.

Police have so much to do anymore, pulling you over because of full tint, then they were having a very slow or bad day.

Full tint is a violation just about everywhere. Getting pulled over is for it is going to be contingent on many things.

 

Here in VA they can’t pull you over for dark tint alone. But they’ll give you a ticket for it if they pull you over for something else.

 

Well it happened to me one day in another vehicle so it's accurate. Said he pulled me over because he thinks my tint is too dark. The FHP officer checked my tint right there and it was legal. Ran my license and my freedom seed spitter and then let me go.

 

That just reminded me that I have to get my truck inspected. It expired last Oct. stupid VA state inspection.

 

LOL!

I gotta ask.

What is a "freedom seed spitter"?

I think you are referring to a handgun, but I gotta know for sure. If it is you pistol, then I'm so stealing that description!

 

wow. Don't like hearing these stories. Glad you sorted it out and saved some cash.

 

My most recent purchase arrived early! At my door less than 3 days from Colorado to BC!

heading out to buy some ramps so I can install these. Sadly it is raining and I have some office work to catch up on so I will not be installing this weekend

 

Not a chance in hell. I like it to be right below my booger hook when my elbow is resting on the center console.

 

I’m really enjoying the extra thickness / girth of that wheel over stock (TWSS)

 

New racks hauled their first (light) load today. I'll be constructing 2 - 10 gallon non-pressurized water tanks from the PVC DWV 4" pipe, and the unistrut will become rails to support cargo cases, as well as an awning-style shower enclosure.

 

Yep everything worked out in the end.

 

Depends on the area. I have had 5% all the way around on multiple vehicles in the Tampa area and have never had an issue, to include on military installations.

 

I love parking beside other Tundras.

 

After 30k miles with the awful plastic/rubber riding mower steering wheel, it’s fixed! Not sure about the red emblem.

 

Red emblem needs to go. Way too much.

 

Is the emblem already adhered? If not, might want to paint it a darker red. If you found a color that was closer to your stitching and marker, I think it would work. Right now its a very obvious red and its brighter then all the other red accents that are visible in the pic. Just my 2 cents.

If you like it, keep it.

 

Too much

 

It’s all you see!

 

Yeah the red emblem is tough on the eyes. Red doesn’t photograph well IMO; it might be better in person.

But I really dig the steering wheel.

How do you only have 30k miles?!

 

Living in FL I have never been stopped for tint in 20+ years of living here. In MN, they will stop you for even the slightest tint. Ask me how I know.

 

Ceramic job done after 2 days of work. I went the System X Max G+ route with 10 years warranty conditioned by an annual round if maintenance coating which is around $150. Looks awesome to me and the local shop here in Houston was awesome.

 

Congrats! Looks great. Even on white, you can see the glass like shine. Enjoy the self cleaning properties.

 

Yes on white and I forgot to mention, it now goes faster too Is white plus the ceramic

 

I’m going against the grain by adding more chrome!
Tundra chrome decal added today.
