    M101A1 axle questions

    So, I've had this trailer for a few years now, M101A1, I picked it up from Govt. Liquidators. I really haven't done anything much to it. I use it to haul my camping gear and as a utility trailer, to haul wood, rock etc. I'd like to keep the dual use of it. I'm thinking the first thing that I...

    SnowTaco - 2016 Tacoma Build / Travel Thread

    Where did you get the mirror from? Was it a Toyota part or aftermarket? I want one for sure.

    '16 Tacoma Build & Adventure Thread

    I got a set of sliders from White Knuckle Offroad, they are great. They fit with my Pelfreybilt skids perfectly.

    Rock sliders

    I just thought that I'd give you a look at my new rock sliders. These are from White Knuckle Offroad. When researching sliders I saw that this shop was literally about two miles from my house. I dropped by in January to see if they were building sliders for the 2016's yet. The owner, John...

    If you were going to have a do everything Tacoma or Tundra, what model would you get.

    The rear seats in the FJ give you even less room than the Taco. The visibility is a little tough, but you really do get used to it. It's still a great car, just very prohibitive for your sized family. It wouldn't be to bad for short trips, but long trips would be really tough. You'd definitely...

    If you were going to have a do everything Tacoma or Tundra, what model would you get.

    I love the FJ. It's a blast to drive on and off-road. Unfortunately it's my wife's and I rarely get to take it off-road. It's really a little to small to take hunting, or take on long trips with the kids/dog. My plan was to get my wife to give me the FJ as a DD and occasional hunting rig. I was...

    If you were going to have a do everything Tacoma or Tundra, what model would you get.

    Big Vs. Small truck If I was in your shoes it'd be a Tundra for sure. I just sold my '02 Silverado 4x4 cc/sb with the DM/Alli. combo. That was truly a great truck. (a piece of me wishes that I'd of kept it) It took me many, many places off-road. Places that I never should have attempted, quite...

    2017 TRD Pro Tacoma

    I have...or should I say, my wife has a 2012 FJC. Although I'm not really allowed to take it out wheeling, I have snuck it out a few times. It's set up with Atrac and a rear locker. Like you've already said, the Atrac is amazing! It's gotten me up and down a few spots that I never would have...

    2017 TRD Pro Tacoma

    I really wanted the manual again. The crawl control commercial with the guys getting out of the sand trap is what did me in. That changed my mind write there. I like the auto and think it's a good rig, I think that the crawl control's OK too, it's gotten me outta a jam that would have been...

    2017 TRD Pro Tacoma

    I've already had a problem with my drums. I used the crawl control to get unstuck in the upside down picture, in my first post on here. It had to work at it, but I finally made it out. The drums must have gotten to hot because I noticed the breaks pulsating on my way home. Shortly there after I...

    2017 TRD Pro Tacoma

    I could see getting that kinda mileage driving at those speeds. The best I've seen out of mine is 22. I definitely take it easy driving too.

    2017 TRD Pro Tacoma

    Yeah, the main reason for disappointment is I expected better mileage based on the stated MPG from Toyota, that and my old 6.6 Duramax consistently got 16MPG. I know, comparing apples to oranges. A little off topic, but how do you like the manual? I wanted a manual, but I went with the auto so...

    2017 TRD Pro Tacoma

    Hey Scott, don't count on those MPG's in the real world. I have 7200 miles on my DCSB TRD OR with an AT. Still running the stock tires, no lift and a tonneau cover. My mileage is at 17.3 overall right now. That's with me cruising to work, taking it easy with the CC set at 70, about 35 miles one...
