Show me your Truck History Image Diary

Just bringing that CA-spec stuff around here to rub our nose in it, eh?

 

what trailer is that? thanks. Looking for something similar in a Aframe popup maybe. Torn between pulling and leaving at camp and wheeling around or having "camp" on top of the bed.

 

Are your rims plasti-dipped or painted? Love the color, so much better than a black tire on a black rim.

 

It is kinda strange that they don’t offer it in the US. Guess the brains at US corporate didn’t they anyone would be buying them?
Meanwhile it took me since basically last May to get my hands on one cause they’re basically sold before they’re even at the dealer.

 

I gave up trying to figure out the trim rationale. It looks like MX and South America is AT only or you buy a HiLux?

The only thing that makes some sense is that MTs are limited to not affect the corporate MPGs numbers since we're rated slightly less. Folks have varying opinions there though.

 

cause no one in the usa knows how to drive stick?

 

Flagstaff popup, same one as the previous pic. It's been a fantastic little trailer.

 

Vinyl overlays I picked up on Etsy.

 

First truck/ second vehicle ever owned was a Chevy Luv 4x4 that looked alot like this. Manual trans/ manual hubs/ single cab/ bench seat it was basically TWs dream truck. Paid like $400 bucks for her. I think she died about 1.5 yrs later. Definitely got my money out of this one. Several shitty cars later...


I got my second truck, a 1992 2wd Ranger that looked like this one. 4 banger, 4 speed manual. Getting this up to speed to merge onto the interstate was terrifying. Paid $1000. Sold it back to my buddy for $1000 a year later so I could buy...


My first truck love. A 1999 Fronty 4x4. First auto in a truck and there was no going back. Paid $11000 for her. Everything was beautiful until the sunroof started leaking 4 years later so I traded her in on...


My beloved 2006 Frontier. God I loved this truck. We spent 11 glorious years together. But her only flaw was no 4wd. So I sold her to my stepdad (still in use) and went and got what I always wanted...


2017 Tacoma. Hopefully I'll have her for 10+ years as well.

 

Chevy LUV (Light Utility Vehicle) FTW. And no kidding. That's exactly what the average TW member [thinks] they want.

My buddy in high school had a white one. The backwards opening hood was so cool!

 

If I’m not mistaken, I do believe usps mail trucks are based on the luv

 

Mine was just a rebadged Izuzu P'up. It had all the Izuzu stickers and stuff under the hood, They just slapped a bowtie on the front and a Luv badge on the door and called it a Chevy.

 

Isuzu = Chevy
Mazda = Ford
Mitsubishi = Dodge

it was strange times

 

My dad wanted one, but never got it. Getting the Taco was sort of fulfilling that for him.

 

I had a Stomper in elementary school that was a Yellow Chevy LUV with racing stripes!

 

Stompers were great. I can't remember the ones that I had though. I only remember that one was white with green stripes.

 

What's the thing on top of the grille?

Nice truck... Here is mine which similar to yours:





See my thread for mods list.

 

Spikes

 

Started with an 86 SR5 back when I was 16;




Flash forward after a few years in 'Dubs and Subies to our 2005 2nd Gen;




And when the 1GR popped a HG went to the 2017 3rd Gen;

 

Oh you mean something like jacket with spikes, or necklace with spikes something like that?

I haven't seen like that before.. lol
