    This is my second Tacoma. First was 2012 TRD Sport 4x4.
    New one is 2016 2x4 TRD OR :crapstorm:
    It's got 2.5" leveling kit (for now) and 285 Nitto A/T's. I just finished the grill the other day and I think it looks pretty cool.

    To address the 2x4 choice. Basically, i just never really used the 4wd in my last Tacoma, and I had it in some pretty hairy situations. At some point I'm sure I'll wish I would have got a 4x4. But nevertheless, I love this truck.

    I plan on adding a winch for security and some decent suspension in the future. Currently has front spacers and blocks in rear.

    I made the grill. It's a woven steel. The logo i had machined for $50 locally. The emblem I ordered got lost by Fedex so a buddy of mine made me this one. It's not perfect, but it's pretty damn close.
