    No build yet however here is my brand new 2012 Taco! Trd Sport package 6 speed manual. I went to this from a Nissan 370z so the transition has been "different". I am overall extremely happy though as this is a much more practical vehicle + now i can haul my bike to the track without needing to rely on others. TO DO LIST: Blistein 5100's. 285 tires (MT or AT) and possibly some armor. Has anybody rhinolined their bed? how hard was it to remove the bulls**t plastic liner?

    Thanks guys! i'm also considering the OME lift instead of the Blisteins. Any thoughts? Before I bought my Z I had a 98' 4runner in Stellar Blue. 4runner had over 200k miles on it when i traded her so it is nice to finally own a 4x4 truck again. I look forward to leaching all your knowledge!
    First mod to come is tomorrow, Cutting down the mud flaps to a reasonable length!! A new shorter antenna might also get ordered soon as well, already tired of hitting it every time i pull into the garage.
