    Its for looks so it's not pointless. same reason why people lower their trucks, mostly for looks, not racing (unless it's an x-runner) haha
    and plus, prerunners can have fun in the mud too. either a spacer or billies. go for it bro

    I love my Prerunner, I say lift it.

    For all the guys that think 4x4 IMMEDIATELY makes you cool or better than other people......GET OVER YOURSELF!!!! Its just a truck.... some people need a 4x4 and some just need a 4x2. Cant we just be a community of Tacoma owners helping each other, instead of 4x4's vs 4x2's and bashing each other. JUST SAYING
