    Some of the best things in life are tacos.

    Speedway Blue Tacos are god's gift to the color blue
    Black Tacos look real nice with the BHLM
    Silver Tacos are just faster.
    Pink Tacos...well, maybe when you're older

    Be glad they did not choose Squaw Valley as a cute city name that seems to be the norm through out the industry.
    Santa Fe, Tucson, Avalon, ect.

    Interesting here in Zonieland squaw is so bad they had to rename a few items, a freeway a mountian ect.
    We visited Squaw Valley and the folks there had never heard that it was a socially unacceptable name.
    Weird.

    I don't like the term taco either. Don't really know why...just think it sounds stupid I guess. Doesn't bother me reading it on the forums and what not, but I don't call my truck a Taco.

    Motion to change the nickname from Taco to Coma :D

    Tacos are the ultimate fast food. They are yummy and you eat the wrapper. I think it places your vehicle on a pedistal to call it a taco.

    If there was a company that made bad ass trucks called Beerachelli, we would call those trucks Beers. It would be a term of endearment.
