    Honestly to me the 2nd gen isn't worth it. The 3.0 isn't a great motor and the torsion bad suspension isn't great either. 1st gen Taco and 3rd gen 4Runner are basically the same. I don't really have a need for a truck so an SUB suits me better.

    Hey @RedRunner87, how did you mount your Maxtrax on the roof? I need to get my Treds up there so I don't have to load them in the car all wet and muddy anymore...

    Ratchet strap. I have both ends attached to the same rail. I had them mounted on two separate rails and it was pulling them weird. So far both attached to one rail is working well.

    Switched up the ultragauge mount from the window down to where the shifter is. Window mount keep losing suction when it was cold. I get my new(used) transmission this weekend, hopefully I can get that installed here soon.
