    What's up folk, I got a used 2008 Toyota Tacoma double cab TRD w/ a tow package in June 2016. It's speedway blue and has a black bull bar, black rims, a black grill, and a black leather tri-fold cover. I'm planning on keeping it forever. (Currently around 154,700 miles)

    My goals are to pimp my boy out with:
    -a Mesh grill with the Raptor style letters
    -Front winch bumper
    -A power step running board
    -Some LED headlight upgrade (Halo, CCFL, Black, Smoke, Retro, etc...)
    -Some Light bar upgrade

    I'm hoping to learn cool tips for mods, ways to save money on parts/upgrades, ways to up my HP and of course MPG. Now that you know my whole life, just know I'm trying to show the rest of the world that Tacomas are the baddest trucks on the rode.

    Noooo, that's f-ed up! I guess if you upgrade it, that increases the likelihood of it being stolen. Maybe I should add a lock box and GPS tracker on my list lol
