    They didn't do much. They just had a 99-'00 taco on the show but it was a prerunner. He just said that they haven't given the toyota guys enough love. They also said they are looking for one to buy for the project.

    They didnt say when there going to do it they just said it will be on this season. And they had the pre runner on their because they were just sgowing generally what a Tacoma looked like they said when they begin the build they will buy a 4x4.

    A diesel would be cool but I hope they stick with a Toyota engine. Maybe a V8 or a supercharged V6. I'm also hoping for sliders and stout front and rear bumpers. I also asked them to explore suspension options other than a SAS. I'm basically hoping for the ultimate trail truck.

    What else would y'all like to see?

    Yep, cant wait for this build. And I say they should do a LT setup. From what I see they usually just do trail rigs.
