    I've only seen that on high horsepower cars. Maybe your u-joints were bad and binding up causing the damage?

    Removed my rear hood lights (amber) and light bar and have driven in heavy fog three times since.

    I love the 12-15 front ends so much more. Clean truck, sir. What fogs are those? I'd love to add fogs to my truck.

    Thanks. They are Morimoto XB’s in Amber. I had a set of regular Morimoto XB’s for a couple years and switched to the Amber ones.

    I would buy that too, today.
    My wheels are Toyota FJ Cruiser Trail Team edition wheels. They come in three colors BTW. I just got four new center caps from Ebay for $40. The old ones letters were faded to pink0AFADF79-8F9F-47C6-8FB3-8987C4EAAAAD.jpg

    Gotta say man really love the way your truck looks!

    I'd like wheels like that but that would require changing from 17s and I just got new tires for my truck. Went the pizza cutter route.

    I’m probably going to do the same. I’m looking at 17” FJ Steelies and 34x10’s

    The FJ steelies route has a nice utilitarian route that I think looks cool. I've debated that look also but I'm always spinning my wheels never really make a decision. :rofl:

    Toyota should bring back the Tacoma Regular cab, or a Regular Cab new Tundra.

    The RC Tacoma would sell since the FJ has been discontinued, and the RC Tacoma was the lowest price model in the Tacoma line up.

    I agree, since their reason was EPA mpg and next truck will likely have a hybrid option there shouldn't be a reason not to.

    A little of this and a little of that.
    I bought a used ARE cap/topper/shell and had it painted to match my 2013 regular cab truck.

    Twins!... Except gray! Haha. The 3rd gen trd or wheels are so nice on these trucks. Picked up a set of 5 for $200 bucks. I really dig those steps/rock slider type deals you have, where did you get them?

    Your truck looks great Anthony. Nice deal on those 3rd Gen wheels.
    The step bars are N-Fab. Here’s a link, but unfortunately it shows out of stock.

    Dang, finding some premade rock sliders isn't easy for these regular cabs. Might almost be worth designing my own or something. Thanks for the link!
