    Crazy gf jerk the wheel? That's what happened to my brothers 02 taco when he was driving home to go to work. It rolled probably 4 times down a bank and into a field. The field was actually part of out farm and it was about 15-20 yards from the driveway...

    She does look good!

    Is it just the angle of the pic, or do you have some major positive camber going on?

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Spent all day using the 1st gen to ferry me to auto part stores. Finally got my brake controller installed on my Land Cruiser after taking my time to do it all very nicely. Hooked up to the trailer, brake controller and trailers onboard 12v working but no lights. Shit, two steps forward and one back. Start checking all my wiring for faults and what do ya know, the trailer I parked 2 months ago magically has broken lighting. I hit the front of the trailer in rage and boom, lights! Guess I'm spending tomorrow rewiring the lights on the trailer.
