    The rules are:

    - Keep it waxed

    In Hawaii, before you guy a Tacoma, you gotta know someone that can "take care" of your safety check. Usually your brother's wife cousin's husband sister's third cousin.

    Usually the deal will involve a case of beer and plate lunch. And none of that light beer junk, has to be Heineken in the bottle. Plate lunch better be from that one truck that parks by the prison at the airport that has the girl with the tattoo's.

    I lived on Maui and Oahu North Shore. I have a fresh HE>i decal ready for my tailgate. Also what makes it true Hawai'ian style is one must wear OSHA green long sleeve shirt with arm hanging out window, with at least 2 braddahs sittin in the bed.

    Where do they keep the step ladders to get in? Certainly a niche style that doesn't appeal to me but people like what they like. Nice trucks in their own way.

    Well it’s Hawaii. We certainly aren’t talking traditional musubi…
    :spam:
    And as long as I’m doubling down; spam musubi w/egg fully wrapped in nori or die.
    None of this little strip BS
