    It's pretty awesome. It's been nice that my father has always had a boat we could take out.

    There are some incredible trucks there. My tacoma is so tiny compared to most.

    Alright, @northwesttaco isn't gonna be stoked but I am.

    I figured that I should finally say what I am getting in one month. I'm getting a pelfreybilt rear standard plate bumper with a swing out for rotopax and a spare. I just talked to Satin the other day about possibly adding cut outs for reverse lights but she wasn't sure if I caught them in time. They've been great working with me and I did a lot of shopping around first.

    I got a standard instead of High clearance since I really didn't want to cut up my bedsides. Plus, I want to add a shell really badly and didn't want all the added weight. With a standard, I'll have the same amount of weight on the rear that I already have.

    I'll get pics up as soon as it is installed. My old Body Armor bumper is going to my friend @logcabinwc

    Hahaha That is going on the list soon. Gotta get a few big mods out this year. If a shell goes up for sale near me that I want though, I will be putting others on hold to buy it. I've wanted a shell since I got the truck but they cost a metric ton.

    Yeah. Access Cab is nice. I wish I had a double cab though. Would love your set up. That will be my next Taco if this one ever dies or if I ever need a rear seat. Where did you get your shell?

    Got it brand new at a canopy dealer.. Kinda wish I didn't know but it was before I knew better. Ill probably keep it through the winter since it rains so much here and I can use the annex with it. I've used it once with my ex, now that im single I don't use it haha

    I think I just found one on Craigslist up north for 600 and it's silver... Problem is, It has Thule racks and I want to add Prinsu Racks. I'm worried that the holes from removing the Thule rack will be an issue.

    The Thule rack will work just fine, unless you want a Prinsu because its a Prinsu. Would you have to drill holes for the Prinsu one anyway? Could seal the Thule rack holes

    Yeah probably. I think Prinsu would look way better when I don't have the RTT on. I have the AccessRac so it would match. I'd have to drill.

    How much did yours run you if you don't mind me asking?

    It would look better and match, who knows maybe they use the same holes?

    Out the door price was $2300. It has every option besides the remote lock/unlock

    Damn. This one has 6 years of wear on it and needs new gas springs for the rear window but for 600 even that may be worth it. Then I could sell the Thule rack to help with cost.

    What brand is it? I know the older Leers had leaking problems around the windows ,not that you get much rain in SoCal/AZ, but when you wash your truck.

    Yeah. I've been looking at the snugtop rebel. It seems good and will be easy to get a prinsu top rack on.
