WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

actually no, its by fedreal/military law i think.

 

You guys need a symmetrical flag eh

 

that would defeat the purpose of dumping all that british tea

edit : or we could put a loonie on it

 

Any change to the regulations were driven by the idea of the flag going backward when moving forward, and business pushed the idea as well. I always say “Follow the Money” and you’ll find the truth. A bit different, but when BDUs were introduced in the Air Force, you could no longer have short sleeves. The reason given is that ‘some’ people were showing up with short sleeves and not the mandatory set of 4 long sleeves, so they punished everyone by not allowing short sleeves like the previous fatigue uniform. I point this out merely to show how some of this stupid stuff gets started.

 

Ceramic tinted the front windows and sunroof today as well as smoked the tail lights. Coming along… I’ve owned it for 24 hours officially.

 

New shoes

 

Found a solution to the dilemma:
$8 on Amazon for these Velcro strips. Will post more pics tomorrow but they fit perfectly in the slots on both parts and almost make it perfectly flat except the edges. But allows for easy cleaning if need be too

I bought the pieces from sparks Toyota. I think the parts costs me around $700. I installed the grill and grill surround myself. Added the rave markers since then. I love it man. My truck looks ten times better now.

 

You can buy the mustache from Toyota that is painted in black?

 

awesome, thanks!!

 

yes you sure can. I purchased color matched from sparks parts Toyota.

man that brings back memories, short sleeve green fatigue's from the 80's

 

It doesn't seem that long ago either. I was a Pickle in Basic, and Tech School. But bought BDUs as soon as I was able.

 

@Musashi66 @BuckyCanada
Worked like a charm

 

great idea!

 

work as civ service now helping maintain the big pointy things that should never come out the ground.

 

Lol I gotta do this too.. that is one thing that annoyed me about these inserts.

 

I was impressed with how well everything fit. Kinda bummed there wasn't a piece for pocket on the passenger side of the dash.

 

Ordered AFE air ride levers and J&L oil catch can

 

I agree, I wondered why they would not make one for that section.

 

THAT looks goood! Congratulations on the beautiful truck! Makes me think white might be an option for me.

 

Love the attention to the details here! It’s important to get it right.

The US isn’t perfect, but still the best damn country on earth thanks to those who serve/d.

 

Thanks, but I can't take any credit for the looks. I just really like @trd.jon truck on Instagram and YouTube.

 

You took the time and spent the money. Take a little credit lol

 

Yes I'm definitely interested in you pillar lights, reverse lights and possibly the Pro replacement.

 

First fuel up (91 octane). Averaged 14.9 mpg with 87. Will see if this makes any difference. But at 210 miles I switched stock 18's to 20' with 275/60/20 falken.



Also added EKR seat covers from Amazon. Not bad for the price and a must have with kids and dogs.


Replaced stock muffler with Borla Pro XS yesterday. Deep tone but has some drone at low rpms.

BAK MX4 tonneau to be installed today.

 

Feel free to reach out to me directly and I can work up a quote for you if you would like.
Best,

I have to ask because any research I have done says so...but is putting a higher grade fuel into an engine that does not call for it actually worse for it??

From what I have read the engine isn't run at a high enough compression ratio or temp to burn the extra octane which causes build up in the engine.

Anyone with knowledge or expertise please feel free to chime in and enlighten me

 

I know my friends older titan runs a lot smoother and has better mpg when we will fill it up with 91 vs the 87 he normally runs. My boat also runs better on 91. Just smoother and has a better idle on the yamaha 150. I'm not sure if 91 will hurt the 22 tundra or not. But for now that's what I fill it up with. I guess I'll be the guinea pig and we will find out in a few years if it has any problems or not. I plan to get the jb4 module for the truck later as well.
