What have you done to your 2.5 gen Tundra today?

Do love the RWL.

Help!

trying to identify what is causing the odd tone/sound that is coming from engine bay. Started a couple days ago.
Maybe belt whine?

Yesterday she got her first real salt bath. Would like to wash it, but its 8 degrees out.

 

Imagine being the test pilot and being told that was expected.

Kinda like the U2 pilots. "You mean I take off with 4 wheels, and land with 2. Every time???"

Respect to test pilots and every single person that has served.

 

I have read more than a little about the SR-71, and the CIA counterpart and fore-runner, the A-12. The fuel the aircraft burned was JP7 which is not easily ignited. You can throw a burning rag on it and it won’t ignite. It required a pre-combustion atomized addition TEB (trietythlborane) in order to facilitate initial light off. As well as re-heat (after burner). There is probably more written about it than most people at care to sit through. Perhaps my favorite youtube is this Brian Schul talk. Hope ya’ll enjoy.

The angle of the dangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse...

 

I like look one.

 

SCS wheels arrived yesterday. Long wait till spring to add them.

 

Are you happy with the driver side grab handle?

 

Growing up, I wanted to fly one of those so bad…

 

Same. There was far more salt than snow on the roads in the Midwest. My truck is covered in it. Look at this. I feel a-salted.

 

cali raised fogs.

 

I was debating getting one of those - I think I will now. Thanks!

 

It was stupid expensive but very happy. I think it's better than grabbing the steering wheel to get in and out. Especially when some dink parks close at the mall.

 

I have 35x12.5 kenda klever RTs. I dont plan on ever going to 37s.

 

#2 is the business.

 

Got rid of the tow mirrors.

 

What's this driver's side grab handle? Did you show it already? Aftermarket?

 

2nd Gen had a grab handle on the driver's side A pillar just like on the passenger side - and on the passenger side of 2.5 Gen. Many of us have added it to the 2.5 Gen.

Look at the parts list on Sparks Toyota and order the parts only getting the hardware at your favorite hardware store.

Recently Toyota is out of the A pillar piece increasing the price. You may want to try and locate on eBay.

 

Heard it from an elf that there could be some diode dynamics fog lights and some anytime fog light switch under the tree tomorrow.


Will update accordingly

 

I cant see the second without thinking of...

I’m thinking of doing the same. Why did you go back, and are you doing so permanently?

 

Christmas Eve was Rotundras third birthday as I purchased her on December 24, 2019, drove off the lot with six miles on the clock. Three years later and she now has all of 12,636 miles on her. Of course, she's not our only vehicle and I do work out of the country for at least seven months a year. I've had ZERO issues with this truck since the day I bought it (hoping not to jinx it by stating that). I've done a lot of "modding" to make it the way I like it and enjoyed doing 99% of the work myself. We've enjoyed her camping in National Parks, up in the Blue Ridge mountains, beaches and forest service trails all over Florida. I've used her to haul my kayaks to just about every stream and river within 250 miles of home. I've trailered my dirt bikes to Croom and other trails many times with my son. I've been setting her up as an "adventure rig" or "weekendlander" in anticipation of my impending retirement coming this year. I've got her just about like I want, but still have a couple of mods left on my list. (Please don't tell the CFO) I'm not sure that ever ends, especially if you frequent this forum much. I appreciate all the knowledge I've gleaned reading the posts here from other members, and heavily researched every modification I made prior to ordering or installing the parts. I love this truck and I'm happy with the choice I made at purchase, no regrets. Best of all, she's paid for and will hopefully be around for a long time.

Merry Christmas everyone, may you find peace and joy in your life.

This is a fairly recent pic, as I'm overseas now as usual.

 

Merry Christmas to you and yours as well, Stanley! Nice looking rig!

 

Thanks, Ron. Happy New Year, too.

 

Merry Christmas, Ya filthy animals!

If the gifts are Tundra related, post 'em! Otherwise enjoy the family, friends, and some peace.
