    Why 95-97?

    Huh??

    But 95-97 is the worst model iteration for boost.

    I thought it was for emissions, because that's what year his frame was

    From what I understand the early ECU's don't handle it as well

    Oh yeah the 4x4 95-97's look badass. The 5-lug 95-97's look like they have an extra Chromosome.

    It's something about that front fascia.

    I thought it was exactly the opposite for some reason.
    I like the newest version but that’s just me.

    The '01-'04?

    Yeah. They're not bad looking. I'm a fan of the '98-'00 fascia, but of course I'm biased. I own two 1998's.

    One thing Toyota got right in 2001-2004 is the interior.

    I hate the door panels in the 02, why can’t they be flat like the 99

    The 98-00 is my least favorite, even though it's what I have. When I bought mine the 01-04 was by far my fav, but the 95-97 has really grown on me. I used to want to convert my truck to one of those styles, but I stopped caring. Can't see it when I'm driving anyway

    They're so comfortable. The first time I took a drive with the 2004 door panels I couldn't believe how much better the armrests were than the old hard plastic one on my 1998 door panel.

    They look better too IMO.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I went to 01-04 tail lights cause they're a fuckton brighter and everyone in AZ has an extra chromasome, or three

    Shit man. The first time I put my arm on that thing I had a 'come to Jesus' moment. It's so comfortable.
