    Oh, heck. I worked a few weeks at McSpadden's automotive on 71 before transfering to S. Congress shop. I didn't see the elusive SWB w/ black though! I've seen him around Round Rock and north Austin on 35 though. You can easily tell him from me because he has steps and a bullbar(maybe a rack too?), whereas I only have the rims.

    Did you have the brute force bumper on at the time? That seems like something I could not miss, especially since I am on the lookout for tacomas all the time.

    How do you like the 285/75's with stock gearing?

    I just installed the bumper last Thursday. I was driving around without a bumper for a month or so. I need too regear too 4:56 or 4:88 soon too get more power back but my mileage is around 15-17 if I don't Rev my engine too much. These MTR's are one of the heaviest tires with the Kevlar sidewalls. They are amazing tires though and work well with the stock rims. Ill upgrade my tires and wheels once I run these tires down. Looking too get 315/12.50 15R next year... that's why I wanna maybe regear too 4:88.

    Changing my status to tentative, just found an ARB bumper in Houston, and may go pick it up Saturday if the seller is free...
