    Congrats! Black is the only acceptable color for the TX Baja, hides the garish splash graphics. :D

    It's funny how you know its the right one when you see it. I went to the dealership for a Corolla and my Tacoma was just sitting there in the lot, staring at me...I knew.

    That was like me. I went just to check them out and 3 days I ended up trading my 06 in for the 12 I saw the first day. I just knew I had to have it.

    i went to the dealership to buy my wife a Prius, but after driving it, she couldn't part with her BMW. The Baja was sitting there in black. Way better looking than I expected. Lucky for me, I can't live without my long bed.

    Very nice. How did Toyota get 2 extra inches of left in the front? And are the front axles and CV joints straight when the truck is sitting on level ground? I would love to lift mine 2 inches but am afraid of what would happen to the CV joints spinning at an angle. I really like the looks of your truck.

    Thanks for posting the picture. I guess if Toyota is not worried about the angle than I shouldn't. That truck really looks good.

    Congratulations. In your first picture it looks like the front springs are black? I thought they were supposed to be red Eibachs?
