    Borrowed/tested it out for the fj summit.

    The trailer is used primarily by FJC magazine. We haven't had a chance to trail test it behind a Tacoma yet so this was a great opportunity to see how it handled it.

    I'm definitely a fan. I'll be transitioning the truck to its next phase soon and most likely putting that tent on the back of my truck while they test a new tent setup.

    love your truck and your pictures. I lived in the springs for 2 years and I miss CO everyday. This makes me miss it even more.

    Half the reason I got a tacoma is because of living in CO.

    hahaha....nah, been trying to get her behind the wheel again for a while now..just tough when all the trails are hard, not a good place to learn..

    so yankee boy was a good place for her to bounce around and get a feel for it. need to spend some time just driving around to get her used to manual before getting too crazy.

    solenoid box going in the engine bay somewhere....so that'll free up the whole bumper...

    original idea was to hide a 20" behind the grill, but i'm thinking i want it out front now with a 20" amber

    maybe a 20 or 30" white combo on the top of the bumper and a 20" amber hanging from the tabs?

    or a 20" combo with 2 amber duelly
