    Finally installed @TheDECKEDGuy Decked storage. Took around 4 hours working with my 11 year old son. Honestly if I didn't have his help I'd be still at. Only the plate was left because it was too late at night to be drilling in my neighborhood.

    I'm tired. Lol

    Love this system. How much would you estimate it weighs?

    I'll have a video and final thoughts. I have a few hours on footage I'll need to go through.

    It's pretty cool. Weighs between 200-220 lbs.

    My boys and I attended the first annual Rays Tribute meet where owners of Rays wheels were invited to show off their rigs/cars.

    Hey Rob, your HardShellTaco is looking awesome. digging the MBRP exhaust, are you running a spare tire under the truck? If not, have you heard any problems from people's spares hitting their MBRP exhaust? i'm trying to get these bad boys on, and possibly getting that MBRP exhaust in the future.

    upload_2018-11-18_17-15-53.jpg

    They’re 16” wheels with falken wildpeaks 265/70r16

    ALso congrats on the 5000 I remember when your taco was just getting started on YouTube.

    Hey thanks for sticking with my YouTube channel for so long.

    I still have the spare on. I need to get a bigger one though to match the 285s. Your are stock size so the spare is good to go. There's enough clearance for the exhaust right now. Anything bigger will get a little tight.

    It's Taco Tuesday! I wanted to give a shout out to Allyn Pierce (The_Pandra) for his heroic actions and to talk about my concerns about emergency preparedness.

    I did another oil change video but tried out some MotivX tools to see if it was worth buying.

    Also went to Home Depot for my only stop for Black Friday this morning.
