    I'll have to test drive one. Dealer has a clean 06, can't believe no one has scooped it up yet.

    You weren't doing anything constructive. Reading that and commenting was the highlight of your day.

    You're welcome.

    It's obvious what preference's people have . What works for me , might not work for others . Insult all you want it's my money and for ones to be trigger happy on insults shows intelligence. I mention aholes one time and some have shown how respectful they can be in this community. I still like my setup and it has never failed me . Do I intend to jump my Tacoma , no way, it's my dd and my weekend toy . So say what you want I've owned Toyotas only and they are tough platforms , they can handle abuse . I've been a avid member of the community and tend to continue. Opinions are like aholes we all have em.

    Bigger tires are in the future. I'm currently planning a tow rig before I get too far into modding my dd . Once I regear the hacking will continue. To some projects take time . I have a family and children. Spare time for me is limited. Man I didn't intend to get on the wrong foot with any member. We are all here for many of the same reasons we love our Tacomas .

    All I’m saying is…..3” lift will leave you enough to pay for a boob job when you get in trouble for something

    The best 6 inch lift is a 2-3 inch lift.

    Hmm man idk. Half of TW buys expensive 2.5/3” stage 12 or some shit lifts that a cheaper lift could’ve accomplished.

    Not aiming this to you - at all.

    It’s funny when people ask about lift advice (when there’s clearly a sticky), and state what they’ll use it for.
    TW will reply back with expensive stuff or long travel “I jump my truck with this” suspension products, that the OP clearly stated what the use will be/will not be for. Lol
