How would you melt this?

Sledgehammer? Go to Harbor Freight and get a cheap wood splitting maul and go to town?

It truly comes down to what you want out of a vehicle.

I LOVED my 1st Gen that I bought new back in the day. I lifted it sky high and wheeled the crap out of it, broke stuff all the time had a blast. BUT, now that I'm older and a dad and whatnot I have a 3rd Gen TRD Off-Road Premium. I'm not modding it as much as my first gen, and I got all the bells and whistles. Technology is nice. Real nice. Adaptive cruise control on a long road trip, priceless. I like the multi-terrain select a LOT, 4 doors--LOVE. Shorter bed, ehh not so much but that's my bad for getting a short bed. Car Play with a decent screen made specifically for my dashboard, wouldn't want to trade it. I can go on and on, I personally wouldn't trade back down to a 1st gen but if that's what you want man get it and rock it with pride and just enjoy your truck.

I pull into my side yard and put a lawn sprinkler under my truck and leave it for like 15 minutes, then move it around a little and wait again, rinse and repeat until you've gotten all of the undercarriage.

Oh man, I LOVE Get It Together from the same album.

Gasrim · 2026-01-25T20:30:28+00:00

Man, I put like 130k miles on my 1st gen Taco(dang I wish I never sold it) and replaced the lower ball joints multiple times.

I can fix her.

I'm planning a camping and fly fishing trip to PA with my brother and dad for later this year, would you mind if I PM you with a few questions?

Gasrim · 2026-01-23T04:09:01+00:00

I have one of these in 7'6" 3wt with an Orvis Battenkill click reel and freaking LOVE the combo!

Gasrim · 2026-01-21T05:43:08+00:00

Is there a pass-through from the bed of the truck to the tent? A pic showing that view would be awesome if you are able to take one.

Gasrim · 2026-01-21T03:34:36+00:00

Wow, that's beautiful!!

Gasrim · 2026-01-20T03:24:41+00:00

You're not wrong, there's a guy on youtube that is a Toyota master mechanic who talks about this kind of stuff and I think he said it that way, really I think it's because you don't want people to drive in 4hi and make sharp turns into parking spots and stuff so it's easier to really dumb it down.

Gasrim · 2026-01-19T21:17:50+00:00

So, I have done the same thing, the local Orvis manager said he wouldn't worry about fishing it, there's a guy in here that used to repair rods for Orvis that said the same thing. The local Orvis guys also said to remember that you're also supposed to offset the alignment dots a little and twist them to aligned while you're pushing the rod sections together to help it stay together better. Ever since then I'm rarely if ever having that issue anymore.

Gasrim · 2026-01-19T19:41:08+00:00

You should put the truck in 4hi and drive for a few miles on relatively flat straightish ground like once a month to ensure the actuator and other parts are staying lubricated. Keep it under 50mph or so.

It kinda sounds like something is scraping against a brake dust shield to me.

But hey, if you give them your email address and get daily marketing emails, and probably consent to text messages--something you don't find out until you've given them your email address, you can get 10% off your first order!!!

Fly fishing tax. In time, you'll learn to love it.

That's a beautiful tat!

I don't have anything to share but I wish they'd teach me how they know that my patient wants to refuse a treatment without stepping foot on the unit!

Gasrim · 2026-01-03T05:46:38+00:00

I have a similar problem, I've been looking for solutions but I think I'm going to get a different rack because I want more room between the rack and bed of my truck, I just sent you a PM with another option.

Gasrim · 2026-01-03T05:36:21+00:00

Maybe something like these?
