    That isn't factory though. This truck was probably modded at a professional shop and frame extended and extended cab bed put on. Really cool though, the guy must have had some money to blow.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    I want your color so bad! Love my black sand pearl, but that dark green is unbeatable and not very common. Black Tacos are everywhere. One day I will paint mine like that when I have some cash to blow.

    When I was a kid my grandpa had a taco the same color it was an access cab, I like my 4 doors, and the green color. The previous owner took good care of the truck it took a lot of searching to find it.

    I found it in Santa Barbara when I was on vacation there. Ended up being a great souviner! It had stock wheels when I got it but I changed the wheels to Sequoia wheels and 32" BFG mud terrains.

    He was talking about the double cab with the 6 foot bed, although your truck is beautiful.

    I don't think it is EASY, just swapping out a bad motor for a good one wan't EASY. If you look on carpart.com you will find a bunch of low mileage replacement trans for about a grand or so, that is how I will do it. Doing a manual swap will cost more and be more of a pain in the ass. I have grown to not miss the clutch. I will save that for any sporty cars I own. The drive by wire is what f#cks up the 5-speed swap for me, or even any other year auto tranny swap. I have one from a 97 or 98 that had no issues, but the solenoid controlled kick down and different valve body design won't allow me to use it and I have some pump whine.

    If you live for changing your own gears and want to deal with it then hook it up. Not for me though, I am getting tired of working on sh#t more than I wheel it. :notsure:

    parts are coming in this week, so over the week end I tried to push the limits of the stock suspension with 160k miles on it. It has the blue tokico ones.
