    Never hurts to ask! Haha the stolen tacoma discount.

    Eric and Brittony are awesome people. Happy to get all my armor from them. Also, have a friend who had an SS front. Not built nearly as strong as Relentless's. But I would also say Relentless is overkill strong! haha. I liked the look better as well since it cut the fat lip look off.

    Yup, the Trail has a big fat silver lower lip. Looks like it's pouting.

    I'll go with the tried and true.

    (I think) South Carolina is clean? Either way, it's a good time and we'll go wheel!

    When Lindsay was there she sent me all the snapchats saying I'd love it there because you only have to drive like 2 miles to find a dirt trail through the woods

    It's about a four hour drive for us but we dicked around plenty and it turned into 5. Still a good time and I don't mind road tripping with some buddies

    So as of late I've been doing misc. things to my '86. Replaced the Alternator and Fan Belts, Cap, Rotor, Plugs and Wires, some LEDs for my gauge cluster, radio, and speakers. Plenty more to come. Also, pictured below is the stock radio.

    For me it was more about access to outdoor space.

    You'll love it down there if you're headed to the south east US.

    If life ever changed and I couldn't be in NorCal or the PNW, I'd be in South Carolina in a heartbeat.

    @taczilla I also have one and it's pretty nice. If you do your own install it's on the easier side of installs. I did it by myself except had my wife hold one half of the bumper while I snapped in the other side.
    It only took a few hours. Hint, wire up the winch before you put it in. I had to drop mine since the heavy wiring is on the back. I had a transmission jack with towels on it and was able to do it myself pretty easily.
