    So I have just bought my second vehicle ever. I owned a $500 honda while in high school but sold it when I went to basic training. Since then (4 yrs) I have been driving my dad's extra pickup because I was making practically no money. Now however, I have a great new job and the old truck is about to give out so I jumped on a tacoma that my dad took in on trade. I am not sure what to think of the front bumper yet but I'll see how I like it after a while. It is currently going through service and being detailed and once that is done, I'll be picking it up. First thing to do is to remove the ugly barbed wire/camo decal, I don't mind camo at all but I think it looks cheap. It is a 4cyl, 5 speed with about 95K miles, retail according to my dad was $14,XXX and I bought it for significantly less with my dad's employee discount. Sorry for the huge pictures, I am about to head to work and don't have to time to size them down right now.

    Today I removed the camo vinyl and barbed wire from the bottom. I also attempted to plasti dip the emblems but I rushed it and screwed it up, that is why only the passenger side emblem is black. The pass side emblem still looks terrible so i will remove the plasti dip from it and do it all again. I knew it was probably to cold out, but being impatient, I tried anyway. I learned my lesson. One of the pics is bad because I took it from my bathroom window :crazy: I just thought it looked good from that angle.
