    Okay, I know the 2016's are just around the corner so I guess that's why the stealerships are pushing their 2015 inventory but I couldn't help it. They called making me an "offer I couldn't refuse" and once I started digging and crunching numbers I found out yes, yes I can refuse...and buy this beast! Less than 4,000 miles, an upgrade from the standard radio to the touch screen, and of course the super sexy lift/tire/rim combo. I couldn't be happier. Bye bye lil' red, hello Big Blue!

    I guess I should've used the "Poll" option when I posted this, but now that I have her, I need suggestions on a name and some other mods, if any. I've already done the blue LED dome light and floor board lights. I'm not a huge fan of chrome so I considered the color matched satoshi grille, replacing the back bumper, and black badges. Ideas??? :)

    HOW DOES IT RIDE AS FAR AS COMFORT WITH THE LEVELING KIT? HAVE YOU SEEN MUCH LOSS IN GAS MILEAGE?

    The guys I bought it from did all the mods (except the interior lights), and the guy that actually sold it to me was clueless. From what I can tell it's a 3" leveling kit, blocks (or whatever) in the rear and Pro Comp shocks but front looks like just the Pro Comp shocks with a bigger spring maybe? Not real sure as this is my first experience with a lift. I know there's all sorts of ways to do it and I'm going to ask the guy who actually did it what all was involved. Anyway, it does have Pro Comp suspension, which I don't think comes standard??? :confused: Reading this it sounds like I have no clue what I bought doesn't it? Lol. As far as the mileage I haven't noticed any difference at all. In fact, it seems like I'm getting further on a tank, which I know cant be right. The ride is def a little rougher, which makes me want to EVENTUALLY replace the leveling kit with a quality suspension lift. The bigger, wider tires make it seem like it's "pulling" when I get in "ruts" in the highway. Lol. Scared the crap out of me driving it home. I'm getting used to it though, and I absolutely LOVE the way it looks! Hopefully I can make you guys proud with the end product!

    ya my truck with the 33" pulled a bit to the right when driving on the hwy lol Alignment is on the spot. Had 5 alignment in 1 month after installing my mud tires lol

    Lots of guys run procomp. Nothing wrong with it. If you have the money. Upgrade to a better suspension lift like a full OME. But good looking truck :kona:

    Okay, now that we're on the subject, this is an embarrassing question coming from the guy who just bought it, but are the 2015 Taco's the "Blue Ribbon Metallic"? I thought it was "Nautical Blue" but after looking all day I think I'm wrong. Did the nautical blue end in 2014? :anonymous:
