    Hey all!
    I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, but I'm really excited to share that we did a pretty rad build of my husband's Gen 2 Tacoma Prerunner on the show a couple months ago, that will be airing this weekend!!! So if you have the Motortrend app or the channel, please tune in! The cherry on top is that we are actually holding a watch party at the Ironman4x4 headquarters this Saturday in Portland Oregon - free watch party, free beer, free food, kids activities, snow cones, free posters and stickers, you name it!!! I will be there to talk about the build with my husband and I can't wait to meet anyone who wants to come out!!!

    The more views of this episode the better, because I want to convince my producer that we can do more truck builds, rather than sticking to only classic muscle! (Also cool, just we need to diversify!)

    I also made a couple videos leading up to it, if anyone's interested:
    Part 1: https://youtu.be/BWI_w_0sALE
    Part 2: https://youtu.be/_4AYoMRqLbY

    Again I'm so sorry if I put this in the wrong spot -- feel free to delete it! Or move it!!

    Damn, I missed it. I usually record shows like this then watch them when I'm working out.
    ....guess I should work out more often...

    As @pistonsandpixiedust posted she did a couple of post production videos on her youtube channel that are well worth the watch. I was able to catch them on Friday and sparked my interest in watching the "All Girls Garage" episode. I started to watch on Saturday then again today (Sunday) but each time was interrupted. Then just after lunch I was able to watch the whole episode on Motor Trend on Demand. I have YouTube TV, so I don't know if that'll be an option for everyone.

    Great videos Faye! And really great mods on the Taco. Sounds like y'all are heading out to BBNP or BBSP for some winter glamping.

    Caught the episode this past Sunday as I usually do and was so stoked to see a 2nd gen Tacoma being worked on. More impressive was that it wasn't a million dollar build that one can only dream of. Props to you and Bogi and who ever else that gave the green light on the build!

    Oh my gosh that is SO AWESOME!!! Brandon used to be able to fit his triumph motorcycle in the bed of the Tacoma, but now with the new cap I don't think he'll be able to put it in the back anymore!!! Time for a small trailer maybe ?!

    We are camping in the hill country as I type right now, and we have a couple passes bought for BBNP in the upcoming months. If you see us, please say hello!!!

    Thanks so much again to everyone who watched this episode! The numbers mean more than you know, and will help me push this project against year! We have so much where you want to do to build this truck and it would be so cool to do it on the show where everyone can watch! Again, trying to show what can be done with "normal" budgets of 2 blue collar workers. (No, automotive TV pays poorly but that's not why I do it!!!)
