The Most Boring Build Thread - RBT's Army Green Trail Edition

Stock
- 4WD
- Grey wheels
- Trail edition
I had to sell my TRD Rock Warrior when I was laid off a few years ago. That was my favorite truck until now. The Gen3's (Gen 2.5 now, I guess) are very slick and I fell in love with the AG color. Honestly, I like a lot about the stock trail edition as well. I see this being a slow, boring build. So be sure to check in if you can't sleep at night.

After all the vehicles I've been through in the last 10 years, I bought this truck with the idea of never selling it. I hope to post the 300K mile mark here and the subsequent engine/transmission replacement projects in 20 years.

Nice!!

front window tint might be on the list?

 

Not in this town. The local smokies LOVE checking that crap.

 

Awesome truck! Congrats.

 

Bed liner was done when it was purchased and it needs a wash. That's why the pic is the way it is.

 

Safe installed and combo changed.

 

Tailgate letters are here. I'm thinking about removing the tape and using magnets instead.

 

Love that color and the truck looks great! Good pick!

 

Finally had the nerve to put in the tailgate letters. I'm crazy OCD, so I had to think of this as therapy. I'm really glad I went with the zinc option. They stand out and look great.

Slaps came in!

 

Chrome delete in progress. The glare on the cup holder trim is no joke. AJT Design vent rings. I painted both the cup holder trim and the rings just to make sure they matched.

 

Added the non-skid strips from TuffSkinz. https://www.tufskinz.com/collections/2014-toyota-tundra/products/door-sill-trim-toyota-tundra They look good to me and I dig the tri-color pattern. I was surprised the adhesive on the back was as strong as it was. No drama installation.

 

Do you happen to have a link for the non-skid strips?

Level kit installed and alignment finished.

 

Welp - the meth heads finally made it to my neighborhood. And guess the make/model of their preferred vehicle to steal catalytic converters. I don't mind this mini-project, but it pushes my others down on the priority list. Cat shield installed.

 

Nice truck! Here’s mine! Chrome delete… working on the inside… plus sound system coming!

 

You already know I'm stealing that second photo

 

Yep… so pretty to look at!!!!!! Especially after being polished this weekend!!

 

Great job man. Looking good.

 

Looks good so far. Are you blacking out those shiny faux fender flair bold heads in the future?

 

Yes. Part of the chrome delete. Interior and exterior.
