    LOL, no worries. It was my fault for not tearing my dash apart often enough. I was sure I didn't have to remove the tach to get the bezel out. Unfortunately I was wrong, haha. Just shit you have to deal with when working with a 20 year old antique truck.

    Full night shot...

    Just got back from there today. Hope you have a second, as some of the holes are deceiving and will swallow you up. As for the rest, the Trail 8 to 19 corner, is very rutted out and slick. Doable; just take it wide left. Shortly after, there will be a few mud holes, very slick and rutted. Edit: On second thought, bypass those mud holes completely. They are pretty bad, and one will swallow you up half way up your doors. As for the other usual spots, just way more rutted out. Ran into 3 large groups of Jeeps, plus some guys in a monster FJ with a Cummins swap on 44+ super swampers, 70s Ford up on large Super Swampers.

    That's freakin' hilarious. They think we tear the place up? Those guys are going to make them thankful for little trucks like ours, lol...except we'll get blamed for it by association.

    Yup, you could tell some ruts were from some big tires, vs us 35" and under tire guys. We had fun, but were also mindful of, We have to drive home still.

    BTW, my LTBs will have been on the OGT for 5 years next month. While 2 are showing signs of significant wear from being run on the front end with crap LCA bushings, the other 2 are still looking great (with a little over 7k miles on them). None of them are showing any signs of rot. :thumbsup:

    He proceeded to tell me the T100 came before the Tacoma's. I explained to him that only things before the Tacoma were pickups and 4runners. Minus the trekkers and what not. He knows me, he shoulda known I have a better idea of Toyota's than him lol

    In point of fact, he was right about that. T100s were introduced in '93, 2 whole years before the Tacoma.

    I agree with Lee 95 1/2 was the first year of the Tacoma which I believe is named after a MTN
