    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    This suggests those people give up after the wheels fall off, Monte doesn't even let off the pedal

    I covered up the Mazda logos on my seats with some custom patches I ordered. I whipped up the design in photoshop. Thanks to @Speedytech7 for the curved needle suggestion.

    Turns out, there's not that much room in a Tacoma engine bay. Not a very comfortable place to hang out and weld stuff.

    I killed another set of OEM LBJs in like 10k miles.

    Between that and all the cracks, I'm over it this time.
