    Clipped the plastic going through a ditch...ripped off one side. Then on the return trip clipped the other side and ripped it off. Spoke to another taco driver the next day and the same thing happened to him.

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    until the day before yesterday. popped out the left tag light, a parking sensor, and tore it on the left side.

    Mine hasn't been damaged but it was the first thing I opted to replace. I hate the look of the chrome end caps. I ordered a SOS rear bumper on Black Friday and should be picking it up this Friday. And some sliders too!

    Within a month. Less than 500 miles. Took a bad line where the departure angle was too steep. Did a small number on the fender too.

    Those shitty pieces of plastic are expensive.

    Who would have thought that if two objects try to occupy the same space, at least one of them will get damaged! Stupid Toyota.
