    I think I saw you on the elmo side last week. Do you leave your RTT on all the time? How was the impact on mpg? I was looking at mounting one like that but I'm not sure if I could still move 2 mountain bikes easily

    i do leave it mounted all the time. i get between 16.5-18 usually about 17mpg. the reduction is partially wind and partially the weight. i've gotten 18+ a few times. if you mount it higher, you can fit bikes under more easily, but then you have more wind resistance/higher CG. it's all kind of heavy so i don't bother taking it off. (plus i don't really have room to store it nicely. i park inside =D). lots of different ways to do the mountain bikes. a trailer hitch carrier or just lay them down underneath.

    silly x runners. 4x4 and ground clearance are better in Alaska.

    Ever since i got my Tacoma a few weeks ago, I've turned into a serious tacoma creeper. This website has changed me into a man a barely recognize, lol.

    [​IMG]

    And it touched my soft little heart when i came out of a restaurant and saw another Tacoma had parked next to me. Tear...lol

    Hahaha you're not alone! I always look out for other Tacomas! Even when they're bone stock I still appreciate them. Most of the time I park away from everyone, but when I see another Tacoma I don't care how close or far away it is, I park next to it :D
