    Ive had The Raptor 48 hours now... Don't get me wrong, I know it wont last like the Tacoma and I may be in the shop a bit more, but I'm pissed it took me this long to trade my TURD GEN in.

    Im getting an average of 19MPG average on my daily commute in the Raptor, where my modified tacoma was getting 15. The rest of the Raptor as far as driving and comfort is leaps and bounds better than the poor Tacoma.

    I hoping I can sell my Evo X and possibly buy the Raptor as well. I like the Supercab version.

    you can't go wrong with a Raptor.. I loved my tacoma and all, but in hindsight i should have done the trade ages ago.

    Yeah, I know what you mean. I like the TRD Pro but it's $45k and a Raptor supercab with no options is $51k. I have seen a few that are for sale for that price. So for $6k I'd rather get the Raptor. Anyways, congrats on the purchase and enjoy it.

    You can afford a raptor while in the army or did you get out and go to contract work? lol

    I'm still active duty army half way up the pay scale, and my wife is a pediatric registered nurse for the DOD. And on top of that I have a side gig in the gunsmithing world.

    We live comfortably to say the least.

    I wish I could get out of the Army. I totally hate it haha

    But, the financial stability and benefits it provides for the family is unmatched. I'm too much of a woos too try myself on the civilian side of life lol

    I made them. PM me if you'd like a set of inserts. I can also color match dash bezels in QS for a good price.

    I don’t know if you still check this but I was wondering if you had any pics of your Energy Suspension Poly Body Mount bushings
    And Energy Suspension Poly Radiator support bushings? Are they the same kits?
