My Brocoma

 

Thanks. Nope not yet, stock wheels.

 

After wheel swap

 

How do you like those running boards.

 

ive had 0 complaints, i’ve lifted the truck from them without issue many times and my kids and wife can get in and out easily with them.

install was a bit of a pain doing it alone but besides that very happy with them

 

I like to think I'm an honourary Barcelona Red member. I don't know when I'll get my colour matched cap from my 2016 bedlined or wrapped, life's crazy busy lately especially when we've only got one running vehicle.

Still love my BR TRD OR access cab though. It was an awesome truck, like they all are!

 

Nice ! What size tires and are you lifted?

 

No lift and I see inverted leafs in my future, 255/85R16 Cooper ST MAXX pictured (summer) and 265/75R16 for the winters.

 

I sent you a PM.

 

Met a fellow taco owner today.

 

Can I ask what the overall height of your rig is? I’ll be going with the red and your set-up looks very similar to what I plan, BUT I will try to mount the “roof tent” so the top of it is flush with top of the cab.
Goal is to do the mods and still have the rig fit in a standard garage (82-83”).

 

Sweet

 

Idk about overall height but I’m on OME 887’s and dakars medium. I think I have a 1.5inch lift(?). Definitely lower than a lot of the tacomas I see driving around (whether it’s spacer lifts or on more expensive lifts). Also running 285/75/16 KO2’s. It fits in my standard garage (older construction—not sure what is standard with the new construction homes) with some clearance.

 

Sweet rig!! Thanks, man. That helps!

 

Just re-did the “build and price” thing and got it down to $47K….hahaha.
(TRD Off-Road with many upgrades)
I know financial advisors (and many others) will say “buy two years old and let the other guy take the hit on the depreciation”, BUT a 2020 with 15K miles is $42K all day long on Autotrader near me. The extra $5K is worth it for brand new, zero miles and no inherited issues.

 

Thanks! Excited to get started on this journey. Has been a dream of mine for years and will drive this thing for the rest of my life. Weighing all of he feedback from this thread and will kick it around with my “upgrade guy”. I trust the guy and he will help me do this right, while not going nuts. Gonna be fun!

 

Wow what a beautiful truck. BUT it would look so much better and aggressive without that useless hood scoop. I can help! I will trade you my flat hood off of my 2022 BR for free! LOL

BR long beds are certainly one of the best looking Tacoma combos out there!

 

So if the cost of living is high where you live the dealer charges more? Maybe it’s always been like that but they didn’t actually post it right in the window. But VTR? No way I’m paying for that.
