    Hell if I know, definitely slow. I likely won’t be cruising any faster than 70 on the highway.

    My previous job I had a LOT of down time at work. 12 shifts in front of a computer will do that to you. That, and this is my primary social media. There are threads for everything on here, but we all share the common denominator that is Tacoma’s! What’s not to love? I’ve learned a lot, made some great friends, and been presented with amazing opportunities! This site has cost me a lot of money but it’s also made me some money, working on people’s trucks for them.

    Are you using a self shield flux core wire or hardwire with shielding gas?

    Those little self shield machines are messy

    Okayyyy, wrapped the toyota lettering in gloss black, left the edges in white for a 3d look, also took out the two screws I painted white that went into the license plate holes and replaced them with pop rivet type deals, then I wrapped the black mirror adjustor button surround in carbon. Also did a full interior clean, and wash.
