    Not a nerd, an enthusiast. Get it and mod it to match your truck.

    If you are over 3 and your mommy says it's ok, then there should be no objections.

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    I want to see one of you nerds paint this Matchbox up like your own truck.
    Yeah come on!

    You call that being a Nerd? A real Nerd would modify, paint and put decals on their real truck to match the Toy one!

    Fresh gas.
    I have one, stuck it to my dash with 2 sided tape.


    I had it before I got my real taco - took a close-up picture of it in the driveway and sent it to the wife. I caught holy hell for buying a new truck without discussing it with her first!

    I’d say no more than a half inch if your running a 1/64 scale rig 3/4 if you use a dremel on the fenders! :bananadance:
