    dents. lots of dents.
    Hello!

    Wanted a truck since forever and finally got my humble 1999 Taco.
    Was seriously considering a Ranger but I am happy I got this basic rig to build it into something I truly want.

    Will have lots of questions soon!

    But first here are some stats for you numbers people : '

    1999 base Taco
    4x2
    automatic
    235k kms.
    dents everywhere as it was a work truck.

    Thanks!

    First order of the day ... aside from the anchors in the 4 corners the bed doesn't have any other anchor points / divider slots , how do I go about adding some to help me secure / organize my cargo?

    What different kinds and there ?

    Any help appreciated !

    The Ranger would never have made it so far- head gaskets and clutches every 80k made me stop concidering them (Bronco II- basically a Ranger) your truck was a good choice!!
