    Got some nice bedside decals off eBay from Towervinyldecalsusa. You can choose 3 colors and the outcome looks OEM. They also send an extra decal if you mess one up during install. Highly recommended if anyone is planning on replacing their bedside decals.

    I have a 2010 taco and it is still using its OEM battery and as far as I can tell it is still working 100%.

    I was thinking about building an insulated case for the battery to shield it from engine heat and freezing temps but if my battery lasts more than 2 years I could be ok with that.

    That is exactly what it did today, I had no signs of a battery about to die. I was able to get a jump, drove it for 30 min and it won't start again. So I guess it won't take a charge as well.

    Are your legs crazy long? I'm taller than you and can still fit an adult behind me, a small one anyway. :)

    Vietnamese hookers are pretty flexible.

    Do what I did. Told her it was $400 (I paid $1200 Can.) and showed her the pic someone posted of an accident with their All Pro bumper and told her it had nothing to do with me wanting the bumper and all about safety! :devil:

    Installed my new GrillCraft grill. Finally put the new one on since my accident in February. Have a question though, should I remount the "Toyota" FJ emblem I had in the old grill?

    New Grill:

    How bad do you want it? :rofl:

    You could always go driving in the early morning until a deer jumps in front of you. Then since you'll need a bumper replacement anyway, and you're emotionally scarred from the dangerous situation that you'd feel more comfortable with a heavy chunk of steel.
