    Can you guys recommend someone for powder coating in the N. Atlanta (I'm in Alpharetta) area?

    I will need my bed rack and possibly sliders done.

    I think you would want to rattle can your sliders. Easier to fix when they're all scratched up, rather than getting it powdered coated every time you want to cover those scratches. And you save some money :)

    I don't do enough crawling to scratch them up. The Taco is more of an expo vehicle and since it will be carrying RTT and kids, we don't plan on going anywhere that would risk breaking anything.

    Could you imagine the confusion if someone though that they seen your truck and rammed the shit out of it? The driver would be so pissed and confused.

    There are all kinds of shenanigans going on in Midland area. I am up in Atlanta now for college but my dad is on that mailing list they have for crime watch and he gets at least one crazy email about suspicious activity or attempted break-ins every couple days.

    In reference to the stolen Tacoma, I will be coming down this weekend for Easter and will keep an eye out.

    So when the Tacoma was stolen, it had a giant baseball bag with about 8 bats, 10 gloves, and other miscellaneous baseball equipment in it in the back seat of the truck. Inside that bag, it also had Pacelli's baseball team's roster. We received a call yesterday from a man in Mobile Alabama (about 4 hours away from here) saying that he found the bag in a parking lot and opened it up and saw the roster and google Pacelli High School and found the number and called them.
    So I guess these people that stole the truck hit the road quick.

    Hello everyone! New guy here from Conyers out East of Atlanta on 20! Just picked up my 03 tacoma this past Friday! Hope to see some of y'all around town, at meets, and on trail rides and whatnot!



    There's nothing that irks me worse than a thief. Taking something someone worked so hard for and spent they're hard-earned dollars on, only to have some shit-ass steal it from you.

    Yeah I am not too fond of the city either, but living with my girlfriend comes at a price I suppose if it means I have to live in Atlanta.

    I was just in Conyers Monday for my mom's birthday. We ate at Milano's.

    haha I live with my fiance about 45 mins south of Atlanta. For me, it's worth it to commute twice a week lol
