Show Me Your 3rd Gen Limited

Hey TW, looking to see if there's any Limited owners on here. Don't see much mention of them. I just picked up a '19 Super White Limited and am loving it so far. It's my first Tacoma and truck in general.

 

Congrats! The Limited fits my needs perfectly. I like a little luxury, but definitely needed the bed and the 4x4.

 

Thanks. I feel the same way. I wanted a little luxury bc I drive about 1000 mi a week, hence not going with a TRD. Will likely still do some off road mods in the future as I do a lot of camping and wouldn't mind the ability to hit some trails.

Any upgrades to your yet?

 

Nothing major; bed mat, roof rack, roll back tonneau cover, trailer brake controller, etc. I don't plan on doing any rock crawling, just some snow and access roads. I camp, but my fiance doesn't like extreme camping, so no issues, there. I like the tonneau more than I thought I would and with a roll back, I still have full use of the bed in about 10 seconds.

 

saw a Cement Limited yesterday with a nice lift, leer top and meaty tires. First time i've honestly seen a cement limited i didn't even know they existed or do they?

 

I have the tri-fold bed cover that came on it and so far it's been perfect. Haven't run into issues with needing the full bed but I'm sure it'll pop up eventually. I did some minor things right away.. blacked out badges and did a combo of plastidip and carbon wrap on the grill (I'm not a fan of chrome). Also just put on the MBRP 3" catback exhaust. Not a big fan of the tone but some other ppl mentioned it mellows out after break-in. I have about 1100 miles on it and it's settled slightly but not enough for my taste yet . I am getting about 1 mpg more avg/tank, which does make a difference on 50k a year. Off road wise I'll probably just do tires when I wear thru the stock Michelin's, no rock crawling here either just some trails and access roads as well. I have a Thule set up that I'm thinking of going with so I can add a cargo basket for some added storage camping too.

 

Tires and driver skill make the most difference for off road driving. And you don't have to lift or change your suspension to do quite well.

The SR, SR5, and Limited share the same suspension.

Since you drive a lot of road miles and like your luxury, proceed with great care in any suspension, wheel or tire changes you consider so you don't create unwanted changes. Like lower MPG, rough ride, etc etc.

Nice job on the grille. Did you have it wrapped professionally? Thinking of doing something to my chrome surround on my TRD, it's atrocious.

 

Looks awesome. What's your wheel and tire setup? Any suspension mod?

 

Did the wrap and dip myself, had some previous experience from past vehicles. I'm thinking I'm going to peel the dip and wrap the piece directly surrounding the T emblem. I wrapped the chrome fog trims too so I think doing that emblem will tie everything in.

Also going to be dipping the chrome sideview mirror covers and would like to do something with the chrome door handle strips.

This is the most recent picture. I love my truck. My other half always says she's the side piece, so we had to incorporate it into our engagement pictures

 

Looks clean. What do you end up getting avg mpg with that set up? Mostly highway or city?

 

I was getting 17ish with a heavy foot (hard acceleration, cc at 75-78mph).
For the past few months I’ve revised my habits to accelerate “normally” and keep cc around 68-72 and I’ve been averaging 19-20mpg.
This is probably 80-85% highway over a 25-mile each way commute.

EDIT: Yes, my speedometer and odometer are calibrated for the larger tires.

 

This is how the stock tires look with the 2” OME lift (on my previous wheels):

 

That's pretty decent actually. I'm getting about 21 with the mbrp exhaust on and k&n drop in filter. Above 20 previously, gunna be trying a cold air or ram intake too and try and get it up a bit more.

Any intake or exhaust on yours?

 

Were you able to keep everything else stock with only doing the 2"? Is that 2 in the front and rear?

 

Both are TRD.

 

I don’t know if the stock wheels fit with the JBA UCAs, but should be fine with stock UCAs.
The OME lift is 2” front and rear.
I have since added a 1/4” spacer in the front which lifted another 5/8”, which is shown in the 1st pics I posted.
