    there will be pics when i have the wildpeaks on it. as of now it just looks like this... a corolla with a little more ground clearance

    1.5" suspension lift. the tires will add another 1" drives like stock except full throttle gets slight driveline vibes. meh

    Why I own this truck. If you told me years ago that I would take a 20 year old 4-cylinder truck with 96,000 miles on it and tow a trailer filled with a living room full of furniture 90 miles at highway speeds, I would have said you were nuts. Not only did it make the trip without an issue it looked damn good doing it.

    Generally a highway princess but it sees a lot of material hauling. This is a half yard of drain rock and the rear droops a bit but it handles rock solid, just a little floaty up front.

    my original thoughts are all present in my tundra and eventually the mr2


    wait till you see a 1993 mr2 with a 2023 steering wheel with modern controls, an aftermarket radio with ECU info and factory tire pressure monitors working (yes... im slowly getting all the bits together for this.)
