• 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.

Some thoughts and things I learned:
  • This worked well in terms of its original intentions. We blew away the 50k target and 1431 total posts was more than I was expecting.
  • This is a very simple way to throw some free goodies to you guys every once in a while.
  • 10 days was too long to keep the contest running. You guys hit it hard for the first 3 or 4 days and then I think burnout happened, which is completely understandable. Next time we'll probably cut the timeframe in half.

Congrats, all! And thank you to those who put in the time and effort to hit the forum a little harder during the contest.
 
I just want to say thank you to my parents for making sacrifices every day so I could become a better forum poster. I also want to thank my wife and my son for always believing in me and keeping me on track over the last few days. And last but not least, thank you to all of my fans. I couldn’t do it without you, you guys make my job worthwhile.
 
Tyler,
Can you tell who the Actual 50k post was?
I would have been able to tell if I remembered to look when it happened.

Normally, you'd still be able to know if you look inside the database and find the post ID of 50,000. However, I can't do that anymore, because our post ID's go all the way to 58,500 right now, which also means the 50,000 post ID happened a while ago. It's way higher than the number you see because of alllllllll the Chinese spam bot posts I've had to delete over the years.

No worries, was just curious.
 
This was fun! I thought I was doing okay, but heck... I knew @Tacomadad18 had it in the bag when I saw him reply to every thread I replied to. 😅

Congrats guys!
