    I flash My Offroad lights at the Tacoma owners I know. Especially at night when I'm behind them. I used to wave, but Its mostly at flat billers who only stare at you back.

    Yeah, I used to wave, but it seems that the Jeep type pride is lost to most Tacoma drivers. 1 out of 10 people I wave to look at me like "WTF does he want". Jeep drivers always wave at each other.

    Why flash lights? Doesn't that mean their headlights are too bright?

    Yeah, I wish more people were into it. I'll be honest, I feel like I'm brothers with every other person that owns this truck just because it's such a cool vehicle.

    well you asked for specs..... 06 trd sport speedway blue 5.3l v8 4.0 camburg lift spindles extended travel icons total chaos lowers allpro 4" leaf pack 17" xd hoss rims 37/12.5/17 mickey thompson baja atz Allpro hybrid bumper grill craft grill wicked flow muffler inside i have..... wet okole real tree camo seat cover blue oznium dome light stealth sub box with 2 10" kicker comp subs kicker 400 watt amp weathertech floor mats
    the main reason i was asking. is because i either wave or flash my lights at tacoma's well today a sheriff pulled me over for flashin my lights. and i told him that what i do to tacoma owners and people on here do it also. then this police officer pulled up and was like. i own a tacoma and have never heard of that. in my opinion he sounded like a jerk when he said htat. but then again thats my opinion. so i told them about the sight and i was like yah thats what i do. i didnt get a ticket but a warning and the sheriff patrols the road by my house. so i was just seeing what yall did. both are checking this site today when ithey get home. well so they said. but that is the reasoning. also sorry for not capitalizing anything
