    Howdy ya'll!

    Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Jonny, and I am from San Diego, CA. This is my dream truck, obsession, and the coolest thing I have ever owned. My 2019 Tacoma TRD Pro has taken us all over the place. Surfing is one of my favorite hobbies, so I built it with the intentions of taking it to Baja (once I'm out of the Navy) to spend days upon days catching endless waves. With that being said, I still love to romp it, and see what it can do. Primarily our focus has shifted to more "expedition" style trips; long open roads with miles on miles. Getting off the grid and ultimately just getting after it and soaking it all in.

    That's enough about me, here's the rig - you can find me on Instagram @jonnysends

    Yeah, this is a SAHWEET build! Hope you get home safe and sound so you can live the Baja surf dream.

    Would love to see some interior photos of the GFC and how you have the rear BD lights wired up (looks like you drilled through the rear GFC panel), as well as your Matt Gecko lights . Also curious how you like the VRNCLR frame bags as I’m thinking of picking some up myself.

    Also, what’s the best method to sound-deaden a Tacoma?

    Thank you for your service. Very nice rig you have, can you show some pics of your drawer system. Seems I am copying some aspects of your build.

    Beautiful. As much as I love the budget builds, seeing someone go all out is pretty amazing. Hows is the GFC camper holding up?
