    Welcome and sweet truck man looks good already and for most 2wd hey go with Long travel builds. It can be quite a bit of money but it will be worth it I think. That's what I'm saving up for.

    Welcome and nice truck. Nothing is wrong with 2wd @toyo522 gave some good advice though. Unless you dont off road to much.

    most of the 2wd owners drive their truck off a cliff and then go buy a 4x4.... cus it aint a truck unless its got 4x4.

    and it aint a proper tacoma unless it has atrac.

    HAHAHHAHAHA

    Seriously though almost everything you can do on the 4x4 you can do on the prerunner, suspension etc is the same. If i had a 2wd i would of gone with the same lift and same mods for usability that i have done to my 4x4.

    Like they said even without 4wd you can still do a lot. Throw a locker on and punch it. Lol but there are a few people on here that are 2wd and their builds are based on the 4wd and they can still hang with the guys on the trails to an extent

    I've had my 2wd for a couple months now. I didn't want a 4x4 because of gas mileage, I don't plan to off road, and weather is not an issue but a couple days per year here.
    So far I have added nerf bars, door seals, window deflectors, and ordered seat covers. Plan to do more as funds become available.

    Yes sir
    If your rig has a ton of mods - you're probably broke from all those mods.
    If your rig has a few mods - you're probably broke and putting every dime towards mods.
    If your rig doesn't have any mods - you're also probably broke and all available funds are going towards mods.
    Damn mods....
