    There was one other guy on here who had one, can't remember his name. He was selling his truck on here last year.

    Edit: found it

    I'd rock a roll bar but not a fat tube one like that, its not 1985 anymore. JK guys!

    I was thinking I would like a small diamter tube hoop over the back window with side bars that go all the way to the tailgate, kinda like a knock off of a legit cage for a race truck.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    I think that looks pretty good actually OP, sure enhance the look of a regular cab, but seem outta place on any other cab configuration imo.

    I've always liked the look too but didn't really like the way they performed on my Jeep. They caused too much glare at the top of the windshield & on the hood. Moving them to the front bumper performed better but completely lost the cool look.

    Dont get me wrong, I like it too. Looks good on the standard or access cabs but IMHO not the double cabs.

    I listen to classic rock 90% of the time and I was born in 1983 :cool:

    THIS truck looks good, I can dig it. BTW, what tires are those? Patterns looks like the first gen Goodyear MTRs?

    That is exactly what these tires are mocked after they come from TREADWRIGHT TIRES 123.00 a piece they are recape tires they balanced great two have no weights at all on two the other two have 2oz a piece thats great for 285/75 /16s look em up and check em out over 200 reviews read a few of them not a bad one in the bunch they have got some good lookin tread patterens several guys at work have went to these tires most running the BFG pattern they like theres to.The only bad thing about mine is the aggressive tread pattern makes them just a little loud.I was warned of this before I bought them.But its not terribly bad just turn the radio up a little.Cant wait to try them in the snow!!
