    Those bumpers are horrendous. I can't imagine the weight those add, all the harsh angles... good night!!!! The license plate in the back seems to be lacking lights and may have been an afterthought anyway? The panels under the headlights look to be very close if not entirely fit and doesn't leave a lot of room for movement.. but with a bumper like that I would suspect if it moved you had real issues. I guess to each his own, but I think they went the other direction for looks and turned a great looking truck into a fugly.

    That front bumper will haunt me in my dreams...

    Body Armor needs to go back to the drawing board for the Tacoma. Their bumpers for the Jeeps look pretty decent but the bumpers for the Tacoma look terrible.

    What I'm curious to see is if the dealer would stand behind the issues caused by the lift, if any. If the front differential vibe rears its head, will they replace the needle bearing with the ECGS one, or will they keep replacing the front diff under warranty until they can't anymore and leave it on the customer to do it.

    You would think they'd at least put some brodozer wheels on it, that will grab someone much faster than that awful, awful front bumper.

    $46,000, and they couldn't throw in a color matched, or even chrome grill?

    Brother, Ain't that the truth! If they had a counter that kept track of the time logged in I would likely have to join TacosAnonymous!

    What kind of dealer is this? It looks like their lot is at a city park.

    Notice the rust on top of the Toytecs?

    Rear bumper looks like kids at high school metal shop class made it.

    That ADM window sticker just reeks of professionalism!

    That poor truck.
