    I am convinced that those who use tire tubes, just enjoy getting flats and fixing them...

    While I dont "travel" on my bikes, I do agree with you. Both of mine are tubeless(29er and 27.5+). I do carry a tube... because carrying a bike back sucks. Sent from my SM-T827V using Tapatalk

    Side mount on the truck bed

    Been just shy of a year... How is this working out for you? Ive been looking at doing something similar, so I can move to a hard shell, but, have concerns regarding movement, etc. Sent from my SM-T827V using Tapatalk

    Show us your Toyota 4runner, tacoma or truck.

    Your advice on a Tacoma order to turn into light expo and DD

    I will second this. I had one in the front of my Jeep. When I was looking at Frontiers again(right before I bought my taco), I was keeping the trutrac in mind if I couldnt get a good deal on a Pro4. Sent from my SM-T827V using Tapatalk

    Your advice on a Tacoma order to turn into light expo and DD

    I have a 2018 DCSB, pretty much how you described(tech, not prem, etc) Not a factory hardshell tonneau, cheap amazon roll-up. Have about 5k on it. Transmission frustrated me initially. Have the ECT alway on mod. Helps(I live in the hills), but, just driving it how it needs be, the trans learns...

    Tex's '18 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro build

    For what its worth, I'm eyeballing the RCI in aluminum for my Taco. Im not hammering on it as hard as my jeep, thus, dont want/need the steel. Plus corrosion resistance. Want minimal streetabilty impact. Funny, as far as containers for road trip storage, I have actually been looking at a rear...

    Tex's '18 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro build

    LOL, I hear that. After my Jeep, I'm trying to keep my Taco as low key as possible.... bought the TRD, threw some decent rubber on, and running it. Cant wait to move back..... Enjoying your thread... especially the beach pics... dont know if its making me more, or less homesick though....lol...

    Tex's '18 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro build

    Picked up my '18 Taco a month ago(a little more than that I guess?).... Has the new engine, and 6spd. I'm learning to live with it. Toyota has a little way to go before adding the 6spd to the 4R. On that note, I've been trying to get her to warm up to a TRD OR 4R.... but, getting her out...

    Truck for my son?

    I'm happy with my Taco, mostly(I prefer a stick, but, my wife cant drive one). Bang for the buck, goes to the Frontier in my opinion. Just as reliable, and I live in New England, and i never see them with rot.... They can be had for a good price, I'd personally go after a 2nd gen, with a 6mt...

    pulled the trigger

    Totally understand... Ended up with this truck, because I went overboard with the Jeep, to the point I was driving a tank to make runs to Lowes.... Only "change" on my list is tires. Real ATs.... Cargo and basic functionality... We will see how long that lasts..... Chase Sent from my...

    Help, Talk me out of it.

    You know, iats funny, I'm 5'8, and my wife is touch higher.. I'm actually pretty comfortable, and she says she is good. She prefers the Charger though(the hemi, sticky tires, and brakes).... Anyway, while I'm not in love with the transmission... went down to the city to do some stuff... and...
