    Monte, I don't know how far it would be for you but I plan on going to one of the events held here eventually. It's a 3 hour drive for me from Whiteman AFB.

    Not really worth it as my truck can't do anything.

    I don't get why you would buy another 1st gen tacoma for your DD. if you want a dd get a car. Better mpg, less expensive, easier to drive around in...

    Because I want a truck as a daily driver? There's been many times where me driving a truck has come in handy.

    And honestly I just don't like cars. Period. I can't stand sitting so low to the ground.

    I have no regrets. I was glad to have the space when moving.

    Haha yeah... :eek:

    If I get another Tacoma it will probably be slightly lifted as well. Just no sliders or anything like that.

    I would just want something simple to replace the sagging stock suspension. I'd probably go with OME 881s.

    I like having my DD car for the most part. Can't complain about 45 mpg. Less money towards gas means more money for the Taco. When I'm out of school and more settled down I may DD a full size diesel that will double as a tow rig. Probably won't lift it or go to bigger tires but I may do a ton of performance mods:cool:

    They it won't be a dd haha it'll get horrible mileage and be big and a pain to park and such. You'll get a little car again haha

    Only thing I'd take is a VW passat or Jetta TDI wagon over my truck

    But..idk if I could fit 5 35x12.5 in the back of one..haha
