    I was one of their first customers, they do a top notch job making sure to cover every inch under the truck.
    I paid $500 2 years ago for lifetime application, I go back every spring to get a recoat.

    Here is a post I made about their shop.

    I got the lifetime as well and I think it was around that price. I usually get the quick touch-ups done in spring and fall.

    He does also offer a one-time full application for ~$300 I think, and then you can pay like ~$30 each time you want a touch up done too, if you'd rather go that route. (Those numbers are off the top of my head from a couple years ago when I asked about it so they could be totally wrong now and/or changed due to costs, inflation, etc.)

    Thanks! Not a bad price. Certainly beats crawling around under the truck.

    Still got some snowy roads up here. Turned over 19000 miles. Just 3 days over 9 months since I took it home. Want to upgrade suspension but am a little gun shy.

    Anyone know of a decent shop in the Twin Cities area to get transmission work done? I need a new clutch on a first gen but don’t know where to head. SE metro if that matters. Heard good things about Turbo Tim’s in mpls in general but unsure.

    SO I have something that is not Tacoma related but small business. I work for 10K brewing in Anoka and we are trying to expand to a new building on the Rum river. City counsel members had a second offer for the spot we are looking for and decided a chain restaurant is better there then the locally owned and operated brewery. We have started a campaign to change the mind of our city counsel members. If anyone here has been to the brewery we are very small and need a bigger space and brew system. Even if you aren't into craft beer or beer in general I think most people can get behind a local small business growing. If any of you guys would like to help support us growing visit 10KDTA.com and email our counsel supporting small locally owned business not a chain.

    Did any Tacomas attend the event?
    It's not too far from me and have always been curious if I need a rock crawler to hit those trails.

    Cool. Is there enough trails to be worth a trip? Guessing you have non +37” tires…

    It’s definitely worth the trip. It’s one of the best places open to the public in the state. They only have 4 events this year though. They have trails from farm trails to buggy trails. I have 33’s and they seem small there

    I busted my 2020 TRD OR driver side tail light assembly. Does anyone have some take offs lying around in the garage?

    I pulled my 2020 OR taillights almost immediately and replaced them with Pro ones. So I have basically a brand new pair of them. Don't really want to separate them and just have one hanging around, would you buy the set? What you thinking for price? Maybe go to PM since not in BST.
