    Do you have any experience with indepth auto detailing? They have tons of great reviews.

    I'll look into Lupo!

    I know a few people that have used them. I personally have not. I’ve heard (so take it with a grain of salt) that a lot of the retailers in the area are either uninsured or severely under insured. Definitely a consideration to take in mind.

    Yeah I've noticed quite a few of them don't seem very legit, hence why I haven't taken it anywhere yet.

    My brother in WA detailed the truck for me when I first bought it 4 years ago and I've kicked myself ever since for letting it get this bad again.

    I'm serious about spending the money to take care of it, since I know this color is prone to fading. I just want to go somewhere where they will take me seriously when I pull up to their shop in a 98 Tacoma truck and want a $500 detail (or how much ever it may be).

    Give Drake or Matt a call there and setup a time. Sky is the limit for what you want to spend, but $500 should get you a good paint correction and the no warranty ceramic coating. That’s about what I paid for my wife’s car

    Debating on putting a tow hitch on the Taco as we just purchased a Jumping Jack. My question is, is putting a tow hitch on even worth it when we have a 1500 we can tow it with?

    Anybody have experience with MPG's, power, ect. while towing small trailers with thier Tacos?

    they pull great, but you will lose MPG...its always good to have the option to have a tow hitch. Even if you dont use it.

    They seem easy enough to install. Is there a certain brand I should get?

    Is the trailer just 1500lbs? Factory bumper have a place to put a ball on it? you could skip the hitch if that is all the weight your going to pull and just use the bumper. Not saying that its better than a hitch but a bumper pull is more than adequate for that weight.

    It's around 1200lbs. When I said 1500 I was referring to our Dodge Ram.

    Yeah man I cannot handle the traffic, retarded laws, taxes and all the liberal snowflakes anymore. I am a backpacking, gun shooting , outdoor living kind of guy so CA was never fitting for me. Looks like there may not be much of a Taco scene up there, maybe Ill start some meets and try to bring some Tacos together. Cheers!

    only takes a day in the metro area to re appreciate our commute but it is definitely worse. Our little country road that once was quiet turns into a speedway at commute time.

    Here in So Cal it takes me 1 hour and 20 minutes to drive 14 miles. This never gets better only worse if any accidents.... I dont think anything can be worse than traffic here haha
