    Custom, only one ever designed and built interiors, heavily welded frame, all sharp metal turned bed rack and a roof top I made for $75. Power pedal, injen intake system, cat delete, summit racing brake proportioning valve controlled on the fly, slightly adjusted or perhaps unrecognizable ECM, built in under bed storage, high clearance rear built with 1/4" on a 6011 1/8" rod at 120 amps, 360 degrees of led light, a PA and CB, on board air, on board propane (to cook food), on board fridge made from an old red bull fridge found on some guys man cave built into the storage cubby under the back seat, imported tranny and clutch from a good friend over in Europe to replace this aisin junk we get, combined 32 gallons fuel capacity, 18 5 gallons of water storage, built in gun locker under RTT, and all it cost was to hear the wife ramble on about upset neighbors at 2 in the morning every night since I bought that damn truck..
    So brand new here, not much for electronics but I like ripping them out. Gotta custom deluxe 2019 taco. It was the off road but it soon became the on lift. In a nutshell, I'm no longer allowed in 3 yota dealerships in Nebraska, west Virginia and north carolina. I've since redone the whole thing from the frame up and I'm trying to find someone as crazy as me that can share some ideas bcuz my head has nothing left inside hence joining the forum. Thanks all

    Welcome.
    Curious what you mean that “you redone the whole thing from the ground up”?

    engine swap?

    Engine isn't quite swapped, it just functions the way they were designed. I've taken every weak point out from those strange little safety buttons and the little black dots u see on ur back bumper. We don't need that negativity. And of course, gotta trash the 6spd for one out of a hilux. Naturally, bellhousing and the box (marlins are tough as hell) and driveshaft work. Locker swap, gear swap, new wiring harness and it's getting some fine tuning, but it'll be an actually throttle cable that hooks to the pedal if u can imagine such a concept. Right now I run the commander. The list is almost as long as my 84 pickup

    Not enough bandwidth on the internet to list.
    I'm especially impressed by the custom aerodynamic inlets you have added on the front and rear doors. Was it a significant performance gain?

    U know, it really was. It's like flipping up ur tow mirrors on the ol 2nd gen. Serious performance compliments of the drunk pipeliners in Alberta. I almost called insurance, but realized that would be a costly mistake. Never needed them before now day 2 with brand new truck whack. Day 4, whack the front right off when I kissed a cow elk on highway2 at 75..
