    I made a huge down payment on the raptor initially and paid a ton on it while I was deployed. Had lots of equity in it. Glad to see so many financial consultants on here. Haha

    Mine certainly had some issues. Overall reliability was a big concern.

    I don’t think you can pull moves like that at Starbucks but I could be wrong.

    That’s deep. I get what you’re saying but a Tacoma build is something I’ve always wanted to do. It makes me happy and doesn’t stress me financially. I know the meaning of hard work and I know how I like to spend my free time. That said, no regrets. Hope to get many happy miles out of the taco!
    it really is crazy! Surprised those dudes didn’t get real messed up in that sweet jump.

    So I did a pretty aggressive CMC yesterday along with flattening the pinch weld, trimming the inner fender, the flare and folding up some of the sheet metal in order to hold what’s left of the inner fender in place. Had some running still but mostly in the front. Got the truck aligned today and asked them to crank the caster up. Seems to drive real nice and didn’t experience any rubbing on the way home. I’ll get it off the pavement ASAP and see how well I can actually flex it out. Here are the numbers for anyone interested.

    Would be interesting to see how it went if he would have actually hit the landing.

    Exactly. It’s the equivalent of me saying “check out this Tundra! Toyota full size are the best off-road!!”

    But honestly if I was going to try going fast off-road I would use some old beater that I don't really care about...

    I might have traded you straight up.

    Would rather have a Raptor I think.
