    saturday, around 630am, on the 241 toll road, i was getting on at lake forest, and in my side mirror i saw (what i remember) a lifted 2nd gen white tacoma.. couldnt tell if it was single or double cab. black grill... i think you slowed down on purpose to get a look. i had my blue smurf bike in the bed. i let off the throttle in hopes you'd pull up and wave, but you ended up falling back so i proceeded on.
    was hoping this would be the moment id get a spot with a picture since we were cruising for awhile. sad to see it is now monday and still nada. :tear:

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
