    Nope! I'm all hopped up on mountain dew! And like 6 more hours of nightshift. Was upposed to finally get a day off on tuesday but just found out they extended our schedule another week, so it runs right into my regularly scheduled days, so I finally get a day off on friday and then work another 4 before getting 4 off.

    Raptor shmaptor. I was worried about my camper being 5'-8" wide. The raptor is 7'-2" wide. That is body width and doesn't include mirrors.

    Have fun fitting a Raptor on these tight tree-lined NorCal trails.
    Would be really fun in the desert though.
    While you guys are debating over Raptor lights, I'm trying to reconfigure this spot. Need to:
    -Fit porta potti
    -Relocate heater
    -Relocate Solar controller, switches, & fire extinguisher
    -Remove 2nd camper battery

    RV Tacoma problems.

    Camped near Colfax to test out the camper. It's thirty-something outside and 65° in here :D

    See the thing is I'm a ford guy my first truck was a ford and the only reason I got introduced to this crazy little place known as tacoma world was because the tacoma was WAY cheaper. My point here is that if someone handed me a raptor I would test it out to see if I like it and most likely I would Like it

    I don't know. The first time I went to Hollister I ran into a bunch of tacos and one Raptor. I asked them what trails they were doing and they said only the green and blue because the Raptor is too wide.
    On the other hand Id probably be blown away if I drove a Raptor. It's gotta be amazing compared to my over weight elderly 1st gen.

    I have a TRD because I can't afford a raptor lol.

    For those complaining of the raptors size, it was built as a prerunner. Not a mud truck, crawling truck, or trails truck...

    It's a prerunner.

    Of course our trucks will fair better in the tight stuff.

    However, that raptor already possesses stock what many of use try to upgrade to, even on the TRD... Which sadly comes with mediocre "bilsteins" and and locker... Pretty much the only thing that sets it apart from base model...and I cant even use the locker in 2wd or 4H... Lame!

    While the raptor is running a custom designed Fox racing/remote resevoir suspension.....

    There's a reason it costs more.
