    i really like the hawaiian style tacomas its their own. reminds me of all the crazy car sub cultures in japan. not everyone with a tacoma wants or needs to offroad some of yall taco fellas are so grumpy if any taco is lifted above 3 inches and doesnt have scs wheels or some shit.

    They put time and money into them!
    Definitely they enjoy their rides like I enjoy mine (maybe more) still cool to see.
    Mine is no where the detailing they got.

    A lot of stock tacos here cool meeting another modded one.
    Most give a wave!

    Some here might say a true Hawaiian style Tacoma are those that have the Hawaiian flag mounted on it!

    It's not my style but the trucks do look nice. They must know what they're doing because i don't recognize any of those trucks from threads asking why their lift messed up their truck.

    She's not Hawaiian. There are lots of things mainlanders do that Hawaiians don't like. Walk a mile in someone else's shoes.

    You don't know that, do you? She is not; however I checked in with one of my Hawaiian cousins and she had the same opinion. Good enough for you?

    There are a lot of things people do that people don't like.

    Huh?
