    That's way cool looking.

    I hate the shipping industry on a whole.

    Yea, all kinds of statements admitting incompetence but nothing in the note about them rectifying the situation. I suppose (and this why they all piss me off) you have to contact the shipper and prove to them part of the shipment was lost (at least you have the note as proof), they have to agree, then they will either contact the post office to try to make them find it (bad for you) or just write it off and collect the insurance and send you the parts (Good for you).

    Meanwhile, you feel like the one kid on the block that got socks for Christmas and all his friends got new bikes.

    My favorite is paying for Amazon prime, 2 - 3 day shipping, just to have UPS take 4 days and then hand it off to USPS, who take another 2 or 3 days to finally get it to you. :thumbsup: Yea, love that.

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    Fit and finish on everything is great. So many things you will never see on another Taco...

    Nice pics! How are you like the color matched bezels on the BD lights? The non close up pics don't seem to do it justice. I didnt realize they were color matched until I saw a close up.

    I had the color matched powder and a booth at work so figured why not. Just in it some time to prep, clean, and Hang all the bezels. I like it, a subtle difference and you don't really notice it from a far. Until you get up close you notice the attention to detail. :thumbsup:

    If my trip plans work out at the end of summer/early fall I'm going to have to try and meet you to see your truck in person! I want to drive the entire W coast from Socal to Seattle. Starting to figure out how much PTO I need since I live so far away. I'm not sure 2 wks will be enough time to enjoy wheeling everywhere I want to see. Its also going to be used to scope out potential city/state options to move closer to the west coast.(Cali is already off the list of options)

    Yea, I was dumbfounded first go round. Speechless. Looked at the photos 15 more times since then. Then I went and got some tissues and a couple cigs. And I don't smoke. My God man, there are builds and then there are works of art. It's as if Michelangelo was your muse.

    I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone when I say we all have an idea or vision of what we would like our trucks to look like and you sir have proven that with determination dreams can become realities!

    I would suggest that you use that for good and not evil, but clearly you are one of those mad geniuses and this is your assault wagon. So my suggestion would be just like screaming into a hurricane... Pointless.

    Onto my questions...
    - is there a technical reason for the amber covers on the rearward facing s2's on your roof rack? Besides the the chubbies due to aesthetics.
    - the s2's as ditch lights look great. Are they pros? What brackets did you go with?
    -

    damn that truck looks good. It's nice to know that someday, if I put my mind to it, my quicksand taco could look just as cool :bowdown:

    Got any wide snaps of the dash? I'm considering the multicam black wrap as well for the trim. Hoping to see a wider shot of how it blends with the rest of the interior. Thanks!
