    After getting T boned last Xmas in San Antonio. I decided to rekindle the fire. I just picked up a very clean 2003 xtra cab on Tuesday. I bought it in Odessa, Texas. I couldn't believe how clean the interior was. But none the less I am back to stalking TW. And have to start the upgrades ASAP. I know it is unworthy not to post pics. Soooo here ya go. 4 cyl, 5 speed, with 130k and runs like a top. 18.5 MPG to the job site from Odessa. Let the games begin.:D

    I got a fair price at $11k. Probably a little much but it was super clean. I'll first do the exhaust. It came from Cali so it has two cats and all that good stuff. But header and a better muffler for sure. Then I will put my armor on. The relentless bumper I had on my 4 door took a hell of a blow.

    Was there any rust on the frame of the truck ? Good bumper choice you going to upgrade the suspension as well ?

    Very minimal rust. I had ToyTech coil overs and a bunch of other stuff. Don't know what next though.
