DMPs 01 Taco-Stepside

UPDATE
Sold the 1st gen and got this!
The new ride! Going to be starting a new build soon in the 2nd gens for her




Recent: Last day before i sold her


Alright so the whole story. Im only 18 and had a toyota 4runner which i loved but it was always my dream to have a tacoma so i finally saved up enough cash and got a super good deal.

Its an 01 black Tacoma Prerunner V6 stepside. It had 60,000 miles when i purchased her about 5 months ago for $7,500. Which i was so stoked on. What i wasnt so stoked on was the colors and shit the original owner did to it.
Everything was stock when i got it except for the paint and wheels.

I have a lot of things planned for this truck but money is just a little tight but im gunna be putting most of it into her for a while.

Nice truck! Love the stepside trucks.
I actually like the blue and yellow graphic but I understand, ya gotta make it your own.

 

thanks a lot man. i actually wasnt so happy about the stepside at first but it has really grown on me. i love it.
and as for the blue haha well living so close to the boarder people might have thought i was from mexico hah jk but i just want it all black. im young and thats just how it goes hah

 

A big fan of that 3rd girlfriend, that bike looks fresh. Is that an 05?

 

Me to. shes a ripper haha. actually its an 02 if you can believe that. i keep my girls in good shape

Got some new shoes for the truck.

I should have enough money by christmas to get my new rims and new bili 5100s

 

heck yes nice truck them new tires going to look good!

 

thanks man. i get the new rims in two weeks so then i can trow everything on at once

 

I understand

 

thanks guys.
next on the list is to order my new adjustable bili 5100s so i cant fit the bigger tires, and at the same time im ordering my new pro comp rims and getting the truck painted back to black.

SORRY FOR THE DIRTY FLOORS me and my buddies went snowboarding yesterday and i havent go to clean her yet

 

That box you have looks like it fits pretty well back there!

 

Ya its the perfect little thing. I can still fit a person back there and a bunch of shit or i can just take it out real fast. It hits really hard for its size and the style of box. I like it alot

 

So its been rain here in san diego for the past two days and apperently my truck does not like the rain.
I have a leak somewhere and i have no fricking clue where its at.
Has anyone ever seen this or heard of this!!!!???
Its like right under the dashboard and there was literally a puddle of water in there.
PLEASE HELP!

 

check the drains by the lower side where the fender and door meet.

 

looks good but that video had me scared! Id be too afraid of driving off the trail and down the edge! But nice truck! I like the graffics and new tires and the stepside!

 

Thats crazy, it looks way fresher than my 03, but then again I still have stock plastics. What have you done to the engine besides the procircuit pipe. 02 and 03 where notorious for being jetted horribly did you ever run into that?
