    Great video! I have the exact same model n I love it. It's pretty much set up the same with the roof, front and rear windshields. Iv also added a heater to defog the windshield and added a winch bar on the back to help load the box during hunting season

    Got mine about 2 months ago. Like how yours looks. I got the same windshield,roof,also got a Bluetooth stereo and full soft doors that you can slip very easily on a hot day. Put in a small electric heater,works pretty good and at first kept my eye on the voltage but it stays at 13.8 or 9. Don’t need to run it long anyway. Thought about making wood rails for the bed and led lights for the back( can’t see anything backing up at night).Also saw the Tacoma in you carport. I have an 04 that I still love,in immaculate condition if I do say so myself. Lol Good luck with your machine.

      Awesome! I am enjoying the machine. A couple warranty items need addressed.
      I still have my 2002 Tacoma and it's been a great truck.
      Thanks for watching my channel!

    Awesome. I have the same rig/color but a 22 model. I have the same roof and front windshield. The glass tip out window is really the only way to go if you can afford it. I have Thumper Fab aftermarket half doors. Thumper Fab are working on a top part for the doors right now so I would like to enclose it and maybe put in heat since I use it for plowing and it gets cold here in MN a lot. You'll love this beast. Lots of low torque and does about 66 mph pretty quickly too. 👍👍

      Thanks for watching. I am loving it thus far. I have ~60 miles on it. Just got the rear window and will post a video later. Thanks for watching and hope you checkout my other videos.... I am in PA...it gets cold here too...

      @@ModernCountryLiving Yes I have a poly/ plastic rear window too. I have 1200 trouble free miles but I only do light mudding here and there so I expect it to last a long time since everything is beefed up and I'm barely pushing it's limits.👌

    I have the 2024 xMR with the same glass windshield and mirrors. Same decisions you made on these issues. Also did the poly on the rear. I was having rear visibility issues (even with pano rear view mirror) so I lowered my snorkels by taking the long section out (as recommended by my dealer) for better visibility. Does not impact operations (no river crossings where I live). I also have the windshield wiper. How do you like them now?

      Glass windshield. A+. Side mirrors. B. I haven't removed the long section of snorkels. I just installed windshield wiper. A+ thus far.

    Great looking rig and good job on the vid. I really like this model can you put a plow on for pushing snow???

    • @jimh.412
      @jimh.412 Рік тому

      Yes you can. I have the same rig and I use it for plowing.

    • @ModernCountryLiving

      I believe you can. I went for this model for ground clearance. I plow snow with my New Holland Tractor. Checkout my channel for those videos. I can move some major snow!

    You need to get the seat belt bypass plug, very handy when only going slow

    Same unit here. I went with the polycarbonate windshield, Sport roof and the soft back window. Will be upgrading back window eventually. How are the mirrors. I think those are the ones I'm going to get.

    • @ModernCountryLiving
      @ModernCountryLiving  Рік тому

      Thus far I like the mirrors. They fold if impacted which is nice in the woods. I find a little distortion in the mirror around the top corners. I do think that is a negative for the price of the mirrors. However, I am just picky....
