I had never seen Hitch Skid Plate until an add popped up on my socials. Initially I thought it may be a good idea but as I thought about it I started thinking doesn't it just cut down the departure angle. Anyone have thoughts or experience with them?

Moon Gulch in CO today.

Oddly in a position for the first time looking at the runner from an overhead view. Noticed the weather stripping chipped and it’s hard to see but there is a thumb sized dent. Thinking the port dropped the roof rack while installing it or something.

Anyone know why the FOB light is now blinking? Never noticed it until yesterday. Doesn't do it all the time and works fine. Any info I can find doesn't seem like thats the issue.

Been building since February and I've posted most of these in different places here but thought it may be helpful to consolidate in one place. Happy to answer questions, take photos of specific mods, so feel free to ask. Here you go! (Total: ~$10,300 give or take) Exterior & Lighting...

Had the OTT tune installed this morning. Was debating about doing it because coming from a tuned Tacoma the 6G was already so much better. But...this was definitely an upgrade. Throttle response is much better. It's like the turbo is unlocked, kicking in earlier and staying engaged longer...

Let's see them.

Westcott sliders installed. Also 1.5" Rough Country lift on the front only.

If you see a spot like this, don't freak out. It's just the A/C condensation drain.

Added bronze inserts to match the wheels. Not sure if I'll keep them but will give them a bit to grow on me.

Do we have a running list of all the lift kits available for purchase? I know various ones are listed in different build threads (mostly in the aftermarket wheels thread) but many of those are pre-production dev kits not yet available for anyone to buy.

Installed the matte screen protector (ScreenProTech), very happy I didn't go with the clear. Super clear when the unit is on. Before: After:

Anyone (maybe even with a prior generation) have any ideas on how to run power or cables up to the roof? Looking mount my weboost on the roof rack and don't see a clear way to run the wires. Could just close the back hatch on them but that doesn't seem like a good long term idea.

18" Method 320 (+18 offset) Bronze Wheels Falken Wildpeak AT4 275/70/18 Factory suspension - no lift Very slight rub - Pushed the liner in, no cut 2 cops pulled into the parking lot while I was taking pictures to check it out. Said it was the first one they saw live and they both had 5gens.

Was sick of hunting through the owners manual for info, plus my eyesight isn't what it use to be for small print, so I created a GPT to find the info for me. Super easy access to info now.

Heritage stripes. Added them on my Taco and they really grew on me so keeping the same vibe rolling.

Mounted the Auxbeams yesterday and got them wired up today. I must say running wires from the engine bay to the cab was 100% easier than when doing the same thing on my 3rd gen Tacoma. Will post night pictures when it's dark. Here is the wire pass through the fife wall Taking apart the...

If anyone is curious here is the key in the fob.

Let's get this thing furry!
