I'm gonna keep my truck stock failure support group...

This is not for people that bought their truck with the intention of modifying it. This is for people that swore they were going to leave their truck stock with no real modifications, no lift or larger tires.

My name is Chris...
I purchased my Tacoma in November of 2012 with every intention of keeping it completely stock except for the stereo system. I was adamant that I would not modify it because it was a comfortable, capable and reliable vehicle that was perfect the way it was...

I love how when I scroll through the pictures, I see your hypocrisy getting worse and worse. The only thing left that is "Stock" is the paint job. Hey, time to wrap it or Rhino Line that bitch!

This was an awesome read.

 

Good God man, nice job of NOT keeping it stock. Looks great.
I think I have a little truck envy.

 

I said the same thing. 3 weeks later I installed FOX 3" lift. Today and $1000s of fun coupons.

 

It must be a Chris from CA thing... LOL

Nice truck

 

TW is like Slim Fast for bank accounts.

 

Dang. I almost forgot my original intentions. A reliable daily to get me to school, work, and to the Moto-Cross track on the weekends.
A DCLB to have room for me and the buddies.

Plastidipped wheels and it was my dream truck in high school.

7 years, 2 front bumpers, 3 grills, 2 pairs of head/tail lights, a few crashes and a few jumps later it’s supercharged, long travel, and getting a roll cage next summer.


I need help

 

Nice lookin trucks here,

For me it was, I want bigger tire thats not really a real "mod", well they rub alittle so I did a cmc, now with the cmc i can fit some even bigger tires, well those look dumb so close to the top of the wheel well, i need to lift it alittle. why not get higher rate springs for a front bumper/winch.... wait how did it get to this?

 

We are here for you. You are not alone.

 

Umm, you know you are supposed to go over the dunes, not through. Right?

 

What does Homer Simpson say again ?

 

Delivered Feb 22, 2015 - S. Indiana

Spring 2021 - Nebraska Sandhills - still stock (a few cosmetic adds) 51K miles
New Michelin's, light bar, step bar, tonneau cover, oil change every 4-5K
runs and drives like new, always garaged,
Never failed to start or get me from here to there - off road in the great plains or 4 wheeling from Ouray to Telluride. Nor sure what else you could want from a stock 4x4 truck.

 

Does a tool box in the bed count?
If not, I have kept word on keeping it stock.

But, the $7k I spent (and lost) on my 1st gen is still in my head telling me “NO”.

 

Yeah I was gonna keep mine stock and then I found TW

No regrets. Made awesome friends because of this site

Keeping it stock was an option?

 

That is a SWEET looking truck right there, my friend.
I've never been a big fan of white, but I have to admit, even the 3rd gens look good in white. Of course the 2nd gens do.

 

Is that a Volant intake or S&B?

 

Volant
