    thats awesome..subtle, yet badass.

    The only thing I see being odd, is you would buy a prerunner, and convert it to 4wd..It would be cheaper for you to trade it in and get a 4x4. Unless your doing an SAS while your there..then you would be my ultimate hero.

    Thanks! I'm looking forward to your progress as well. :D


    If I can make it look anything like the SEMA Taco, I would be all in. :D


    But like I said before, I will have put so much time and money into this thing by the time I get around the converting it, that I wouldn't want to see it go!

    Derek, Nice start to a great build. I love the blow-by-blow play of everything you've done and even the places you've gone. I should follow your lead and do one as well. I just need to find myself bored first. :D
