    It's my first time working with paracord and I wanted to use red but stores either didn't have red or it was thinner than I wanted so black it is.

    Hey guys I wrote a beginners guid to VF tuner. If you don't know about it this is one of the best mods you can get for a 3g Tacoma


    I noticed we had good walk throughs for installations and editing but nothing for really where to even start for those that don't even really know what a tune is or what it involves. please check it out and let me know what you think

    Thanks, I have the Westcott for the front and Deaver Stage 3s waiting for me at home. I may go with a cab mount relocate. I was just asking on the forum for a viper cut with the BA bumper. Yours looks great. How much material did you leave between the bumper and the cut?

    I didn’t do it myself, I had a shop do it. But there is about a half inch of material between the cut BA. I will be having a Lil Bs hybrid bumper installed in a few weeks so unfortunately no more viper cut.

    Nice play with the German. In my unit in Germany (E 2-11 ACR), we were allowed to name our tanks as long as it started with the letter E. Mine was Eisen Adler.

    I don't think that what I said fits your definition. If you want to fundamentally change something from what it is, then why do you want it in the first place? Why not get something that is more fitting to your taste?
    Would you buy a dog and then try to transform it into a parrot?

    However, so as to make sure that I am posting appropriately,
    I used my Taco to go to a few Bluegrass festivals this weekend! Awesome music and food. This is what my truck was made for!

    Thanks! As you may already know that was the name given to Marines by the Germans during the battle of Belleau Wood in WWI.
    We wear it proudly.

    (I know its not grammatically correct, but this is the spelling that was commonly used.)

    I know about the Devil Dogs, I think it's great, mostly because it looks sharp and you didn't draw it with a crayon.......:rofl::rofl:

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    Crayons are for nutritional purposes only, not creative endeavors! Great, now I'm hungry.

    Well, salvaged it. Learned the lesson after cleaning the tint spray off the first DRL lens: hit it hard with GoofOff, then immediately rinse. And repeat. First lens is foggy and translucent, second isn't quite as transparent as stock but much better than the 1st attempt. It's got some spray tint stuck in the recesses, but that's hard enough to notice as opposed to the fogged one. I think the amber boards are a slightly different shade than the side markers and raptor lights, but at least they're not distinctly dark orange now. Oh, and I got the speck of sealant off of my projector lens from when I did the retro the first time and didn't notice it til it was sealed up! ...then sealed it and realized I've got a new speck on the headlight lens itself. Oops.

    I'm really ready to drop cash on a tube bumper just so I don't have to peel the front end apart just to get at my headlights anymore. Plus all the broken plastic bits and clips... poor bumper covers barely hanging on at the sides now.

    87 fuel added as needed.
    If you look into the actual accident, the neglect was equally on the FAA as well as CF/Pilot (arguably more so the pilot...as he played 3 roles in the accident). Check out Dan Gryder or Juan Brown's recap.

    If you think these planes were sketchy, never mind...no point in even discussing.

    I agree with your position, but not your argument. The argument you presented here (when applied to Tacomas) would mean that if you like the scooped hood and heritage grille, you should have bought a pro instead of modifying “what you have”. The only reason I point this out is to give you an opportunity to strengthen your debate skills. Like I said, I agree with your position as I agree with the great words of a rivet nut obsessed man; “left ain’t right and right ain’t wrong”
