    Greetings all. Happened to see a window sticker for TacomaWorld.com on a bad ass white double cab in southern CA so I had to come check it out. So far the only mod I've done to my truck is to remove the hard plastic mud flaps, but I got this as a company work truck so I've been hesitant to make any mods. But hell, it's my company, and with the tips and advise on this site I say let the mods begin!

    In a nutshell we do high speed machine vision quality control. If you've ever seen the TV show "How It's Made" you'll have an idea of what it is. We integrate automated camera systems into production lines and kick the bad stuff off without stopping the machinery. It's like MacGyver problem solving using high tech equipment. I love my job.
