    After being "truck'less" for north of a year, I finally found the replacement for my ol 85.

    Now, I know some of you are of the mind that the TRD Pro is a waste of your money. But thats your money, not mine. I have been searching for this particular one for a little bit. Either I would have had to order it or drive some ridiculous distance. I chose the ridiculous distance. I am happy I waited for the Pro. I got the best of both worlds, the view obstructing skewp and the push button locker.

    I am well chuffed with this new toy...

    Thanks! I am happy to be able to get back out to my old hiking/stomping grounds again. ZeVagon was just not getting us there after I lowered it. BMW AWD wagons are amazingly capable in nasty slushy crap, but ground clearance it does not have! This summer will yield more desolate camping and great hiking. My wife won't complain like she did with the 85 not being an autotragic and also it being "soo old"... Plus, the pups are way happier to have all the space.

    Now, if there was a cure for moditis...

    The shop is located in Burlingame. I am a one man show. The original intent was Hybrid auto repair. But, alas, I can't convince the Prius knuckleheads that the car can be serviced outside of the dealership. Now, I mostly maintain and restore old Toyotas with a passionate bend in the MR2 direction. I have had a few TacomaWorld owners in for minor fixes and repairs. I am not sure I could handle hosting a mod day...

    Wow people are fucking retarded.
    I was going downhill on 84 towards Livermore when some idiot in a Honda Civic going the opposite direction decides to do a u turn in front of me.
    Nearly clipped the rear end, i hate people sometimes.

    Bolt LEDs from ebay I messed with. Wish they were more orangish than yellowish. Not bad for $13 for 10 LEDs.

    They would be perfect for that. They are bright to look at but don't cast the light very far.

    Hella fun as a grocery getter, but I agree with the lack of clearance. Perfect complement to the taco. Oh and great looking new truck! 9 miles! Savor the moment, they grow up so fast!

    Lol! Double scoops!
