    Im thinking of either going with a bedrack design (that I would make myself) or a camper shell with drawers. What do you guys think?

    If I go with a camper shell, I want one like this with the sliding windows and flip open windows on the side. A basket/ rack would come too. Similar sleeping platform/ drawer system

    I can't beleive I red all the pages before posting!

    I own that truck for about 3 years now. I didn't modded it too much since then. Recently, after a long reflection and taking the question in all the senses, I decided I'd rather put money in that one than buying a later 05+ Tacoma and having to put money on it anyways to customize it.

    So here it is at the beginning of the summer hauling some stuff.

    [​IMG]



    Another one after the install of my jungle flares; hauling some wood.

    So it is about how it sits right now. I have a new suspension that is waiting to be install. The front are 5100 and 881 and rear 5125, new leaf pack, custom shackles and a complete bolt-on U-bolt flip kit including shock relocators. I'm waiting to finish the design of the brackets.

    Everyone at the job laugh about the light blue color of the truck. I take it hard at the beginning but I know it's because they are all jalous! :cool: I did not choose the color of the truck but I got a great deal on it so I take it.


    Next spring I plan 16" wheels with bigger tires, dual battery, bumper, winch and some goodies! :)
