Cap City Build & BS AF

It doesn't always

 

I will never own a white vehicle, it's bad enough my current truck is silver.

 

No wonder a lot of the TRD Sport guys get aftermarket wheels! I don't really like them, personal opinion

 

I got my fingers crossed for you.

 

All prerunners are 6 lug, they're 2wd on 4wd suspension.

 

We also get the because they are v6...personal opinion

 

You've much to learn young padawan

 

Okay, that makes sense then!
I had a Ford Ranger Tremor. Sat like the 4wd, but 2wd and a badass stereo system

 

I know I know! I really wanted the 6-spd MT, but it only comes in the TRD pro or Limited v6 trucks

 

I wasn't crazy about them at first. Shit Toyota has whored that wheel out on millions of Tacos, 4Runners and G1 Tundras over the years....and the shiny clearcoat finish looks a bit dated. My original plan was to get some FJ steelies. But I kinda got used to the Sport rims....and stuck with 'em

 

I road rage like a madman. But I've gotten much more papaw in my driving habits over the years and less boy-racer

 

Hence the name, Prerunner.

Some history:

Technically, the word “prerunner” refers to a vehicle that pre-runs an off-road race course. A lot of off-road racers have a designated prerunner that’s very similar to their actual race vehicle, which gives them a chance to run a course without having to ding up their race truck.

The more common definition of the word “prerunner” is a 2WD truck that has a lift kit. The Tacoma PreRunner basically matches this description, but a lot of people build prerunners with long-travel suspensions, 500hp motors, etc.

Mechanical Differences Between PreRunner and Regular Tacoma
For 2005-2010 models, the key differences between a regular Tacoma and a PreRunner are:

• Width: The PreRunner is about 2″ wider than a regular 2wd
• Height: The PreRunner is about 2″ taller than a regular 2wd (give or take)
• More ground clearance: PreRunners have extra 1.5″ (or so) of ground clearance
• Payload rating: A PreRunner can haul about 200 lbs more than a regular 2wd
• Better standard tires and wheels: PreRunners come with a more aggressive tire and 16″ wheels instead of 15″ wheels
• Skid plates: PreRunners have them, regular 2wd’s don’t
• Taller rear axle: PreRunners come with a 4.10 or 3.73 rear end (V6 has 3.73), whereas regular 2wd’s come with a 3.31 or 3.58 (manual vs. auto)
• Larger front brakes: PreRunners have 12.56″ diameter front rotors, just about 2″ larger than regular 2wd’s
• Slightly tighter steering: PreRunners turn just a hair better than regular 2wd’s
• Same wheels as 4×4 Tacoma: PreRunners have 6 lug wheels, just like the 4×4 Tacoma. Regular 2wds have 5 lug wheels.

 

Had a four banger mt ranger back in the day and that's when I decided mt's are only for sports cars.

 

Same here until I joined this site...

 

I enjoy 'feeling' my vehicle. Half (4 of 8) of my vehicles in the last 14 years have been MT

 

Feeling...

 

V6 ftw

 

TRUCK BUTTS!!!!!

 

But yours is blue.....
