    It was empty. I saw it at the Texas state fair auto show, and thought it was cool. I had remembered reading that ole defcon wanted to wrap his.

    If I have coilovers and want the aluminum bumper you have, do I need to add springs or anything?

    will you be running a winch? if so, steel or synthetic cable?

    do you plan on running skid plates? aluminum or steel?

    ...too much shit to list.
    What kind of coilovers?
    What spring rate is on there right now?
    How long is the spring?

    That's so awesome! Thanks Bro! :D

    Yep :D I will likely be driving back to Washington this week to pick up my trailer from VMI Offroad in Bellingham.

    Oh I definitely noticed! White Taco with Black rims is a favorite combo of mine! Maybe I'll see you again next week when I drive through again!

    Thanks!
    It might not be the cheapest... but its not the most expense either. Bottom line to me was overall offroad performance while maintaining a comfortable daily driver feel.

    I totally did see a crown vic! Numerous of them actually and every time I was hoping it wasn't a cop lol

    I originally had plans to do something very similar except I didn't want the entire thing wrapped. I have also been tossing around the old school camo pattern (again not the entire thing though).

    I'll get some shots of it this week :D it is so TITS!
    I use the "cooled" option daily and it feels so good lol

    Count me in!

    On my way to the American Adventurist SoCal Mountain Rendezvous I had to stop by the FrontRunner Outfitters new shop and do some shopping :D

    I replaced the Thule bars on the trailer with a SlimLine2 rack and also picked up one for my ARE canopy to match the truck.

    Posted up at the event. Seriously such a great time with some awesome people!
    Let's get more Tacoma's out there next year :D

    A couple photographs of these awesome new Toyo Open Country R/T's.

    After almost 2 months of daily driving and some light trails (dirt, rain, mud, rocks etc) I feel like these will be my go-to tires for a long time.

    I still need to test them out aired down doing some crawling.

    I will be working on a full detailed review for those interested also.

    haha, anyone else see "fuck" on the rock in the first pic !?

    Really looking at these tires hard for my next set! Look great and I'm liking the idea of going back to an aggressive AT after my MTr's...

    That is seriously so bad @ss! This is a must have mod for me now. I am no electrical genius so I might have to get a how-to from you when I get some time to tackle this project :D
