So, I'll start off by saying I have been snooping around this forum for the past month and a half since I bought my 2018 quicksand. It is DCLB automatic, looks to have spacers up front but other then that pretty much stock. The dealership I bought it from had some 245/70/16 mickey Thompson mud...

Hows it going folks! New to the thread.

Started to build my Tacoma in homage to the first gen Pickups on the '80s. Mostly because I had to sell my 1980 Pickup and wanted to scratch an itch of still owning something unique, while still keeping it an all-around truck.

Greetings all! I finally sacked up and ditched my little 4-banger Fusion for a 2016 Tacoma TRD Off-Road. To be perfectly honest, not sure why I didn't do it sooner. For right now this is my daily driver, but it gives me the freedom to go do some weekend warrior type glamping shit, and...

Alright. Figured I should get the build thread moved over here. Seems to be a pretty standard build setup for most of the rigs, so I will come throw our trash panda into the mix so you all can laugh at the dumb shit we do with the truck. Let me clarify, this isn’t a fancy build. We are very...

After lurking and researching for over a year, I bought a '19 last November. This truck is my daily and I wanted to keep the mods to a minimum but feel it will all spiral out of control eventually. For now I have the TRD grill (of course), Cali Raised fogs, Bilstein/OME/Deaver lift, Method...

Replaced my 2002 Tundra with a new Tacoma and will use for M/C hauling. That was till I went 4 wheeling and discovered how well it works off road. Just as capable as my Jeep but waaaay less tiring to drive. I can foresee less riding and more 4 wheeling. Here is the truck box stock as delivered.
