• 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.

Molle Panel e-bike hands out build.

That crooked stocker is literally unusable. I would be losing my shit. There has to be a way to fix it. Cut the frame out around it and reweld it so the sticker becomes straight.

BURN THE TRAILER, START OVER. ONLY REAL OPTION. Sadly the stickers are factory cut so removing it will likely fuck it up.

Finally got it on the road and got to get my new to me Fe501S. Trailer drover avesome. Might look into going a little firmer on the springs for it, but im also running like 20psi in the tires as i last drove it empty. Gonna mount the risk racing lock-n-loads over the holiday now that the bike is home.

Just out of curiosity, why did you choose a Husqvarna? Granted it’s been a long time since I rode, but they were never the top choice in those days.

things have changed. for almost a decade if you wanted a plated real bike ktm/husky was your only choice. Since the Husky / Husaberg / KTM merger they've been THE bikes to have, still kicking the crap out of the competition. All the austrian plated bikes are legit dirt bikes just with emissions stuff. No cush drives, no weak motors.
honda finally came to the ring but they brought a trail bike in dirt skin

Currently building a trailer similar to the Patriot Trailers TH470. Trailer will keep tent mounted, dirt bike storage below. Infront of the bulkhead i'll have additional power and likely move the fridge. Suspension is Timbren SAS independent axleless.​
I think thats it for all the shit i've wasted money on.​
 
That's a slick way to get your bikes secure. I've been out of that game for a while but I can clearly remember trying to get multiple bikes tied down with straps intertwined. Fun times.
 
Ordered up the MorRyde Trail kitchen for the bed of the truck. This is perfect for my non-existent needs.

Yea, but f’k it. You do it b/c you can.

i’m importing carniciera’s before that wall gets built

LOL! F’k the wall. There’s gotta be something better we can spend the money on, like maybe infrastructure.
 
in other vehicle news my wife has hit head on by a car that jumped the median then fled the scene. she’s a-ok. she had the wherewithal to slam on the brakes as the car lost control oncoming, essentially making it a single moving car accident.

car is pretty well wasted. airbags deployed, apron and frame horn bent, both headlights, fender, door and hood. intercooler, ac condenser, radiator, core support, bumper, grilles

Wow that's crazy. Glad she's alright. Could have been way worse.

For real, that fact that she had the situational awareness to slam on the brakes prior to him crossing the median really made things so much less worse.

Unfortunately the driver of the car or the car haven't been found yet, responding officers left a message with the registered owner but he hasnt returned their call so they handed it off to the detective bureau.

fingers crossed.

almost 300hp, swb and awd = fun

this mk7 chassis is so much better than my b7 passat tdi was. interior is also better than the dated b8 a4.

overall super stoked, 35mpg average right now. i had every intention to get her a ‘19 Tiguan SEL 4-Mo with the digital dash and led headlights and she was like naah i want that, thankfully because it saved us 20k

Nice pick ?. I had a mkvi Golf TDI before the Tacoma. Great car and the mkvii is a way better platform. I'm definitely jealous too. That will make an awesome daily.

the wife’s a microbiologist at miller coors in irwindale and drives 45miles a day from long beach to there so the hyper miling diesel will be nice without feeling like a gutless hybrid turd.

Sno monkeying with this diesel though.
