    Welcome. This is my beloved Tundra, Penelope. She's got a 3 inch lift and 33.5x11.5 inch tires. This is my first 4x4 ever. Enjoy.

    I bought a new flood jack and channel locks to install my front superbumps today

    If I had an impact I'd tackle the rear ones, but I'll hold off for now

    Debating on removing the front sway bar

    So I've been a member of the be(1)st gen Tacoma community since Sept. 2012 and I'm on my second Tacoma. My first was a blue horizon metallic 1999 TRD Prerunner v6 extended cab named "Pearl." (R.I.P.)
    My current Tacoma is a lunar mist metallic 2003 TRD Prerunner v6 double cab named "Misti." Both trucks had about 90% of the same mods. Hopefully in the near future I'll buy my third Tacoma and it will be 4x4.
