    So, i am late to the party, but I figured I would join in anyway...

    This past weekend I traded in my 95 Ex Cab Tacoma, and landed this beautiful 08 DCLB. My 95 was a similar (lighter) blue, so this one fit as a fitting replacement to the old gal (retired at 188k). This one has 61k, and i aim for over 200k with her..

    Truthfully, the initial shopping phase was very frustrating, as dbl cab sb was all the dealers seemed to have... Given that i am not a fan of the sb, i was not about to settle. At the lot where i found her, the salesman said that their inventory showed none on hand... We walked around anyway, and there she was...


    No mods yet, but i know i will have tons of fun in the near future...

    I'm new to TW and just came across this Speedway Blue thread. I had a Speedway Blue 2008 DC TRD off-road Prerunner for 2-years. Only regret was not getting it in 4x4 since I go to the beach often. Traded it in for a Speedway Blue 2011 DC 4x4 TRD off-road. Love it! Just took it to the dealer this morning for the TSBs.My Tacoma.jpg

    I know exactly what jump that is lolol. I hit that same one on my dirtbike, but i hit the middle area between your wheels.
    Right across from edison camp ground right??

    That other jump you hit if i remember correctly is pretty effing steep.

    Hey NvrSumR - Good looking setup!

    Mind sharing the specs on the wheels - backspacing, offset? And are you still on stock suspension?
    Thanks.

    I'm not a wheel spec expert, but this is what the guy at discount told me. 17x8.5 -6 4" backspace. Hope that helps.
