    I'd like trailer-style wheels (American Racing) in black, but a big thing is also whether or not the TPMS sensor will fit!

    You would probably have to talk to somebody about that to see if they are compatible

    That's the thing, and the stock 15" wheels have really grown on me! The thing that pisses me off is that they are pretty much the same damn shade of silver as my truck!

    M32 street sweepers. Beautiful piece of weaponry. Except for the sights on it are useless.

    My truck does just fine going up hills, though the other day I had trouble reversing up a really steep driveway while doing DoorDash...

    You tagged me in the accident thread, back when my 2000 Tacoma got crashed the frame was mashed all to heck. The drivers side tire hit a tree dead on and the tire straight into the frame which pushed into the floor and buckled all the way up to the clutch and brake pedals! It spent 48 days in the body shop getting repairs as they would not total it, truck never felt right after all that and it never tracked straight again.

    I wish they hadn't, even the bed was sitting sideways as it was touching on one side and I could fit my fist in the other side. Plus it had lots of other damage too including the AC!

    They cut out a lot off the drivers side and welded new metal in, never liked how that looked. If I remember my receipts correctly it spent 40 hours alone on the frame machine, I think even the transfer case sheared off.
