• Welcome to Tacoma3G.com, a free resource for 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma owners!

    This website is the passion-project of a USMC veteran/mechanic, @Tyler. I created Tacoma3G.com to share my knowledge of this subject with others and to provide like-minded folks with a comfortable space to ask questions and create 'build threads' within our Tacoma Forums. Now, if the format of this website is confusing to navigate for you, or if you're interested in my full mission and T3G's history, check out the Help and About pages.

    T3G Feedback and questions about Tacoma3G.com - How can our community and website be better?

    Too dark. Is there a setting I can change to go to a lighter color scheme?

    What does everyone use for chainsaw?

    I was skeptical of electric chain saws but bought one a couple of years ago to clear an acre of cedar and live oak. I wore out every day long before it did.

    Looking for brutal opinions on my new intro video

    Agree with Tyler. Don't like the big ass logo over the top. Don't like the warning.

    Techstream Tutorial

    Is anyone on this forum a Techstream guru? There are some huge threads on the other forum that quickly devolve into jibber-jabber. I'd like to see a step-by-step tutorial on what to buy and how to use it.

    Custom on-board water idea

    Taking 10 gallons of water from 65 to 105 degrees with 1500 watts takes about 45 minutes. Where does the 50% come from? I think the Yeti will be drained and the 4-8 hours to recharge is going to be closer to the 8 than the 4. Direct sunlight at the perfect angle is never achievable in the...

    Custom on-board water idea

    You will drain the Yeti way faster than it can be recharged by solar. Perhaps even faster than a running car can keep up with. The inverter will also require that the car is running which mean huge energy losses. If you have to run the car then a heat exchanger is the only efficient way to...

    Custom on-board water idea

    No, sorry, the current requirements are just too high for any kind of electric heater.

    Custom on-board water idea

    Well, no, I don't think so. Take this with a grain of salt since I'm no expert, but that is a 110V heater 1600W or 2200W. Your bed outlet can push 400W max. Look at the numbers above. You need over 1,000 Wh. Even assuming the Toyota outlet can push 400W (with the car running, btw) and you...

    Custom on-board water idea

    I'm interested in this so I did a little research. From the Rinsekit website: So, if you have ambient water temperature of 65 degrees and you want to raise it to 110 degrees for a shower that will take about 4 hours. And that is just for 2 gallons. I don't think their heater is ever going to...

    Custom on-board water idea

    I think it is a neat idea and I'd like to see you try it. Given that the Rinsekit is only 2 gallons is their heater going to be able to heat 10 gallons without taking all day?
