    I would only pay like $150-$200 depending on how bad they are. Is it craigslist?

    I bet, it looked weird when I first put it on but I really like the look now.

    Black Sand Pearl factory paint - flattened "au natural" by tree branches.
    I saw a really cool video on youtube last night of a 2.7L newer 2nd gen single cab wheeling around with what looked like 33" KM2s. I think it was called "wheeling the tacoma with open diffs" or something like that. I'd find it and put a link up but websense won't let me. :( Those trucks look really sweet, wish they were available in Canada!

    As much as I love silver,

    I am really leaning towards white if I trade for a 2014 RC, if I was eevr to get a DCSB it would be white.

    I want to ask a question for you single cab guys,

    So I have been thinking about removing my mud guards and maybe installing a Toyota OEM looking nerf bar/step, since they make a simple bolt on one for the RC,

    So am I really going to do a lot of damage to the sides of the truck by removing the flaps/guards....

    Has anyone tried installing the smaller ones from the 2WD Tacomas?

    Recommendations/Rants/ :crapstorm: welcome! Lol...

    I know they do look better w/out them,

    I thing even a cheap factory bolted on tube/step would protect the side a lot better than nothing....

    Awesome video,
    Thanks for taking the time to record it and put it all together....



    So technically would this truck benefit from the YMW?

    What year did Toyota basically have LSD style operation in 4WD HI,

    I know in mine it works rather well, but in 4WD Lo it's turned off, :D

    Nice looking RC bro,

    What brand of front bumper/light mount you using....and what model lamps?

    It looks great and protects the lights a bit....
