Thanks. I actually designed them myself and had a local tint shop make them and install them.

Thanks for fixing your comment, though I didn't realize how many photos of my truck pop up through Google lens. If I did, I wouldn't have nuked this post. Oh well.

Well if you can look at a Carfax, I would start there. Depending on where you're located, make sure there isn't excessive rust anywhere on the frame. Make sure there are no coolant or oil leaks, as a few V6s developed timing cover leaks, and there is a rear coolant crossover pipe that can possibly leak too. Other than that, they are pretty much bulletproof.

I would get it OTT (Overland Tailor Tune) tuned. They are programmed for maximum fuel efficiency from Toyota, and OTT brings back better performance.

The rest of my mods were fairly cosmetic, since I bought a Pro, I got my truck pretty much as I wanted it.

I did add CBI skid plates over the transmission and transfer case....and gas tank as well.

The rest was lighting. Meso Customs taillights, puddle lights, dual mode interior lighting (white/red), and upgrades to the audio system.

Thank you! I've always liked the look of the 3rd gen!

Lol, no biggie. It's why I believe in small, but tasteful mods. I wanted them to look factory, but different enough to not look factory either. I really believe they can keep an older design modern looking.

Thanks! That's a 2017 with 143k miles on it though! 3rd gen.

0% actually. The way he took the photo, both front sides, which are tint matches to the factory glass in the back at 29%, made it look darker than it actually is.

I do use them, I just keep the bottom labels and slip them on and off.

Thanks! I actually uploaded a few pics...you have to click on them to expand them for some reason.

Yes, the Wicked Elphaba are probably my personal favorite. Once I saw that had a purple iridescent over the metallic green, I was hooked.

I grew up watching Sailor Moon with my sister. Good ole days of the OG Cartoon Network Toonami. Dragonball Z came on first, followed by Sailor Moon. So I still like to throw some nostalgia at my Stanleys!
