    I had all kinds of Sunday free time on my hands yesterday... so I solved my (lack of) wiper fluid reservoir problem.

    Also, did an oil change.

    And wrapped my steering wheel... :thumbsup:

    At one time I was going to build an outdoor bbq station using some granite counter tops I acquired. The backyard design eventually ended that thought. Anyone want these? Free!!! They look stained, but that's just reflections from other stuff. They're perfect.

    They are matching pieces.

    Let me know soon, as I’ve moved them to the street.

    Also had enough free time to wrap my steering wheel...

    20201012_172949.jpg

    Funny... I've had that same type wrap on every truck/Jeep I've ever owned. But for some reason it took 14 years, then a 4,000 mile road trip, to realize I needed it on this truck.

    That skinny steering wheel is a bitch for all day driving.

    B96E0761-ED6C-4582-892D-E4CFFCEA33B2.jpg I got one of these for my car. The dude that makes them could make a Tacoma version but needs a blank. I’m tempted to sideline the truck this winter.

    It was less money than an OEM replacement, that's for sure. You do have to move the controls and airbag-which you'd have to with the OEM replacement as well.

    Bonus, the dude is here in Santa Clara.

    Maybe. A lot depends on what happened. ie; if the airbag deployed, maybe not.
