    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Yeah @Nicklovin I've looked into self-retrofits as well. Headlights are just a great way to fuck something up and not be able to drive at night. :rofl:

    that looks fun but what about those steps on the trail? Those look a bit much for a stock tacoma.

    and I don't know if I want to be that close to Mexico

    This one here is a bit cheaper, I picked it up about a month ago and it's worked great so far;

    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007H4VT7A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Definitely makes the runs a lot more fun when you can communicate with others on the trail!

    I want to get a portable CB unit. but they cost too much

    also, if you don't know, you need a HAM license to use those Baofang models

    NICE!! That looks awesome! :drool:

    My lift was shipped out today, I think I'm going to attempt to install it myself since Chris @SlipperyTaco was kind enough to offer me his space to work in. But might have to wait until I have a free weekend next month

    Yes legally you're supposed to but the only one here who has one is @WileECoyote & I believe more people here have a ham over a cb.... although I have a cb:frusty:

    I have a pair of the Ham Baofangs, as well. I thought more people would have CB, but I guess I'm good with the Ham.

    We have (not ever!) used them in the desert to talk but never in a populated area.

    There seems to be a switch from CB to Ham. I have a full CB setup but never use it.
