    I once hauled an old wagon wheel, made of iron, about 5 feet tall. It was pretty big, and I also had a plastic shed in the back, so the tailgate was down.

    I had to slam on my brakes at an intersection when some ass hat tried to take a quick left in front of me and the the wheel somehow fell out of the bed, with the ratchet strap still attached and I had to drag it behind me across the intersection and until I could put it back up in there. No damage to the taco though!

    Any mods done to the engine? I'm amazed and impressed that you're towing a tandem-axle camper!

    Picked up some beer for my belated 29th birthday party today!

    IMG_5997.jpg


    I have been hauling various alcoholic beverages in the bed of my Tacoma for years (it's a significant part of how I make a living, after all). I've hauled a bed full of booze with a retail value of about $10K, and this is the very first time I've ever had a casualty! The cases of beer slid around in the bed, and when I got home I discovered that my 12-pack of Yuengling had been reduced to 11...

    Somebody left this thing next to the dumpster at my work, and I would not have known what it was if it weren't for my friend Jim! It's a radiator cover, and I'm gonna try to sell it!
