    Where did you get it? I've been wanting to do this. My best mod would have to be fog light anytime. I love having them on all the time.

    yeah but isn't everything the best $$ you spent for your taco? ;)

    looking at one of those rubber bed mats. local farm store has 4x6 mats that are used around the farm for about $40. mainly like to have something to keep stuff from sliding all over the place with out having half dozen tie downs on it.

    I know I already said this, but the Toyota HD vinyl flooring option for sure.
    My daughter spilled some of her chocolate shake in my truck the other day and looked at me like she thought I was about to kill her. I just looked at her and calmly said "you're gonna wipe that up when we get home" and smiled. She smiled back, said okay, and continued drinking her shake. That combined with my wet okole seat covers, makes my interior ready for anything.
    My Tacoma is helping me be a better parent :D
