Tow rig/daily driver

["J"]

The stock steel (silver) rims were never my favorite look for the tundra. Recently someone decided to walk off with my spare tire. While looking for a replacement I found a place on eBay that sold wheel skins (think hub caps) that covered the existing rim with the looks of a black out rim.
$80 vs $1k for new rims was a no brainer for this tight wad!

On fairness, it isnt average.

The little Tundra that couldn't.....

That TT would have prolly been too much for a 1/2 ton. Doable, but not fun. No way in that Yota.

If you're going to use a pup truck be smart about it and slow down

Plenty of idiot pics out there with 1 ton diesel trucks. Going to blame the driver without any info, it is hard to hate on the truck.

I've seen an Excursion on its side with a bumper pull. I was an EMT at the time. Not a fun scene to be on. Had a load distribution hitch. Not sure if it was properly installed or not but it didn't help. The tail wagged the dog too hard.

If’n it was a Chevy/ram that trailer would’ve been detached from the truck….. Frame would’ve been bent like a pretzel……

I’d agree with Dave, more about the dumbass behind the wheel than the truck itself…..

Found a set of 15x10s wrapped with 33x12.5 tires a couple of months ago for Levi's taco. Then the salt started and I held him off from putting them on until yesterday. Loving the old school look!

Undercoated. Ceramic paint protection done. Eckbond was the brand if I spelled it right. Floor liners have been in a bit. Front seat covers on. Rear seat covers showed up today. Added some window vents. Bedliner and running boards have been done awhile. Rear Timbrens installed this week. I think she is about where I want her to be for now. Haven't crossed 1000 miles yet since I picked it up at the end of December. Then again, I may have driven over 1000 miles in the plow truck in that time period. Lol

These pics don't do the ceramic coating justice. Looks better in person.

 

[giles]

That stuff is pretty dang awesome and I agree about how pics dont do justice. You can tell driving down the road which vehicles have it.

Look sharp, Phil!

Very nice truck, Phil. And I really like those running boards.
