    It is a good looking truck already. What exactly will you use it for and will you off road with it? Like M3 said the possibilities are endless.

    On a serious note if you will off road and be around rocks and such I would ditch the steps and get sliders. Then if you want bigger tires a small lift and no bigger than a 285 or a 33. Maybe rims if your tires will rub. Really is all about what you want and will be doing with the truck.

    Very true but lifted trucks are so much cooler :p

    All of this is good advice man just take what you like and go with it. CB radio is a very good thing and I need one bad.

    I need a CB too..

    But all in all. If you just take the truck to the hills for camping or hunting, just make sure you have good tires and keep the truck in good shape and it'll do everything you want. Stock these trucks can take a lot and go a lot of places...i would know..hehe...

    so really, all depends on how crazy you want to get with it. And your budget.

    WARNING!!...Tacomaworld WILL MAKE YOU WANT TO PIMP OUR YOUR TACO!.....you have been warned..

    now go check out the build section :D
