    dsal_86Yota 1986 Toyta Pickup x-cab

    Little update. Havent got to do much to the Yota. Did go back to 31s. 33s were bald. Added a new battery and went with military style terminal mounts. Did spray the wheels with the Dupli Color Custom wrap black. Chrome was look blah and Im not a huge fan of Chrome wheels on a wheeler.

    I'd been lurking/looking at newer trucks for awhile. My old truck, 97 F150 xcab 2wd, worked for what it was good for, a truck. But with just a xcab and 2wd it wasn't functional for hunting trips, winter driving, having more then 1-2 people with, car seats, camping trips, and etc. So after having...

    That mega cab is impressive. Only down side on those is usually a less the 6' bed. My buddy had a 2010 and it was nice. I could relax in the back seat, fell asleep back there a few times lol.

    3/4 Ton question- DIESEL 7.3l?6.4?6.7?Duramax?Cummins? for family rid and DD

    Im 31 wife will be 30 in a few months. Ive never been a fan of IFS GM trucks. Love the Cummins but like you said trannys. I need a crew cab. If I go with a dodge it has to be a mega cab, which is scares here. The Ford crew is nice and big. Buddy had one it was nice. He fit both car seats in it...

    3/4 Ton question- DIESEL 7.3l?6.4?6.7?Duramax?Cummins? for family rid and DD

    Thanks guys. Part of the reason Im looking at diesel is the longevity. Im not one that goes through trucks like some. I have had my 97 f150 since 2008, and my 86 Yota since 2003. I also prefer solid axle. I want to run a 2" lift and 35's. I haven't driven a gasser ford 3/4 ton in years and that...

    potential Jeep change

    Just my 2cents, Fix up the CJ8, they are sweet rigs. My buddy has one and he loves it. Plus the old CJ8s are rare, and CJs look better then any JK,TJ or even LJ could ever dream of looking. Maybe you could look at finding a set of D44s out of a old FSJ? I have a buddy at work with a CJ7 and the...
