    I don't understand the need to identify gender roles in today's society. Why not let the truck decide man.

    How non-politically correct of me. I'll ask it when I get home what it identifies as.

    I think there's already several people on here who have used that name. I like it, but I want to be somewhat original. I guess I shouldn't be asking for suggestions if that's the case then.

    best looking color is the quicksand (tan). I have been noticing quite a few Quicksand and cement color 3rd gens on the road.

    I rarely see my electric blue pearl.. probably because doesn't look as good as quicksand or cement.

    Yeah i woulda went with QS if they had it in manual when i bought my truck... have to say, the barcelona red and white look pretty sweet... I think theres not any color I don't like with the new tacomas, I almost don't like my MGM color, ha probably cuz I've gotten so used to it and the pin striping shows like crazy

    Derped the emblems today and removed the dealer sticker from the back. For some reason, mine doesn't have the 4x4 badge on the bed like I've seen on others. I don't mind the badges, but don't prefer the chrome look, especially on this color. The plasti dip was a pain in the ass to get out of the middle of the letters. Not sure if I did too thick or too thin, but hopefully I'm the only one who will notice.

    Took "Tuco" on a backroad yesterday. Came across a couple of cool little abandoned churches.

    The first one had a cemetery around back. One of the tombstones was over 30 feet tall and was from the 1920's. You can see it sticking up in the second picture.

    Second church was called Possum Trot Church.

    Derped the grill today.

    Sorry for the low quality pics in the next couple of posts. Lighting was bad.

    Usually the thicker you go, the easier it is to remove in those spaces. I use tooth picks to remove the excess inbetween letters.

    Yeah, I used toothpicks, but it still didn't come off easily. I finally just got to the point where I know I will be the only one who notices it.

    Got my touch up paint for the front emblem, Husky floor liners and Weathertech window deflectors in today.

    Thanks to @Rob Daman for the link to the paint.

    Sorry I don't pull my truck out in the sun for the pictures. I'm just lazy I guess.

    Thinking about maybe doing the BHLM next...
