I'm a little less of a mall crawler than you in that I like to get out on the dirt a bit more but I get where you are coming from. I want mostly the same stuff you mentioned. I did get 285/70/r17 Nitto Terra Grappler G3s. I was looking at a bunch of different options but ended up going with a...
Where do I begin?! My dad has ALWAYS been a truck guy. As a kid we knew that when the camper was loaded up, it was time for an adventure. Our best adventure was always driving down to Mexico to the town where my dad grew up. We were usually there for a week or two and it was like a travel back...
Update: I took the truck in today and they said that the connectors to the fans were loose causing them not to kick on to keep the engine cool enough. They plugged the in correctly and flushed the coolant in the truck. I have ABSOLUTELY NO clue if that's a reasonable thing or not. What do you...

I agree with you. Let's change the narrative from jealousy / negativity to support and positivity. Buying a vehicle is probably the second largest purchase anyone will make regardless of the financial situations at any point in time. Congrats to you all that bought it in cash and congrats to...
Ok people, I think we've lost the original intent of this thread. As I stated initially, I just wanted to have a fun exercise and understand what people's approach was to funding their Tacomas. Can we PLEASE get away from the gen bashing and just have a decent discussion about what people's...
Saw your videos before I saw this post. Great review! This is probably a total noob question but did you ever consider anything like the westcott preload collar vs a full lift? I don't off-road that much so I'm not sure it makes to do a full suspension. Thoughts?
