    I'd also like to know how it's done... especially since the tires are flat on the flat beds, and completely missing off the top truck front lol

    I looked at the pilot truck more. It’s not even a gooseneck like a real semi designed for towing trailers. They welded a gooseneck to an old flatbed.

    Is that a 1-ton Toyota with a service body?

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I can't imagine what I would do with that. Someone has been trying to sell a 1 ton flatbed toyota pickup that has a 454 in it for about 3 years here.

    Seems like it. Toyotas are usually the non commercial vehicles I see predominantly on these trucks.

    I see them driven around occasionally by scrappers and landscapers. I guess bulky but not dense cargo is the sweet spot.

    Full of tools, I'd be impressed if that truck could see itself past 55mph on a long flat road.

    I saw that. What were the issues you ran into? I can’t afford them and just bought new studs/hardware and gaskets for my stock manifolds and exhaust. Just curious.

    @betterbuckleup How much you looking to spend on that fuel rail? I think I've got one in my box of parts I can dig through later

    the two main issues;
    One I’m super broke right now and have a bunch of bills to pay

    second;
    I don’t see myself installing these anytime soon for sound and minimum gain even though I’m supercharged. I’m pretty set on getting a haltech for the Tacoma more than anything and I think my money is better spent there, I deal with no emissions in Hawaii so it’s not a big deal which header choice I end up with. Granted I got these for a great price but I bought them because they were TRD and rare. If I don’t sell them for a 1000 then I’ll just keep em

    And my supercharged SAS truck is almost strictly every other weekend. As you may or may not know Hawaii sucks for rentals so I turned my downstairs in to a 1 bedroom and full kitchen full bath and I’m easily close to 50 grand in that. I just spent close to 10 grand adding an Insane layer of sound deadening to the ceiling to make it more livable and need to pay the contractor.

    I’m going to regret selling them but it’s a bad month. Hopefully I can get through this month in the green and I won’t have to sell them.

    The extras -

    A chef instructor from another class had come in to watch us. She said she doesn't like macarons yet when she tried mine, she said they were the best she's ever had.

    Mine came out better than everyone else in the class, so I was stoked about that
