    Jesus people. Why does everyone's truck have to look the same? If the guy wants a brush guard let him see/get a brush card. What fun is it if every Tacoma looks the same?

    hour drive or so, depending on if i head threw the swamps, or take 78 to route 5, mines stock..... for now, planning on putting duratracs on it, some sort of a lift, brush guard with some super brite lights so i can take some anger out on mid night drivers who dont understand on how to lower their high beams, and watch for deer at the other times (nothing for me to see 12-20 deer with in a mile of work at 11:30pm)
