    Thank you! You can't go wrong with magnetic gray!

    Do you love your lift or what? I want to go with the 3" Ult lift by Toytec, but I'm wondering if I will wish I had gone 6".

    YES! I had the toytec ULK before. It was a great kit, but I regret not getting a 6" lift. I sold the toytec and got the Pro Comp stage 2 kit.

    Tacomas with a 6" lift look amazing, and your truck is bad ass. Did you have a huge loss in MPG going from no lift to 3", then to 6"?

    I don't think the lift caused much damage to MPG. I did upgrade to 18X9 wheels and 33" tires. I feel thats what caused more damage to my MPG due to weight and size.
