What have you done to your Tacoma today?

[B-Man]

I cut and hauled wood yesterday.. Only I used a trailer. I've seen what hauling wood does to trucks lol

I was always told......wood warms you up 3 times.........when you cut it.......when you burn it........and when you haul the ashes out! LOL

Bed mat and a tarp helps a lot. These composite beds don’t dent like the old ones do. They just scratch and chip hence the tarp and bed mat.

My tarp looks like crap but my bed looks good.

That’s all that matters. lol.
A cheap tarp is a better option than a jacked up bed.

My thought process is just to replace the plastic liner down the road if I ever needed to.

Bought this thing to use it!

Went to the dealership this afternoon and got the recall done on the blower motor. Old one was working fine but they went ahead and got me the updated one. Took 'em 2 1/2 months to get the new motor in.
