So I bought the truck from the original owner back in late 2006. It had about 105k miles at that time. Although it was quite a capable truck--as all Tacoma SR5/TRDs are--it was pre-topper or anything overland related. The only thing the first owner did was that stupid cold air intake. (I...

I've wanted an Toyota Xtra Cab since the first time I saw Back to the Future. I am very fortunate to now have the chance to own and build one. I think it's about as ideal of an overland-style movement vehicle as one can own: dependable, fairly easily-serviced, economical, comfortable enough...

Agreed! I've purchased from Wil on several occasions, and I run the Dakar leaf pack in my truck... I can vouch for them both! (And Wil, haven't forgotten about ya: still coming for that snorkel very soon... just gotta get this whole "previous-owner-cold-air-intake" thing taken care of first!)

WOW @ THAT PRICE!! Actually, in contrast to what I just stated above in my review and based upon Silver Dude's mention of the current sale price, then I suppose that if I COULD do it over again... I'd be able to carry more beer. (And salsa, of course.) Just sayin'.

REVIEW/UPDATE: Okay, it's been close to six months since I made my purchase on the model FP430 from Compact Appliance, and here are my thoughts: Firstly, I don't know why I didn't get a fridge much sooner! Coolers suck, and I'll never go back. Seriously, if you have never owned a fridge...

The Taco I bought a few years ago had an aftermarket cold air intake on it. Not it's time for a snorkel install, but of course, I'll first need to remedy this problem. Does anyone know of a cheap place to pick up a good used factory airbox? I need it from the fender all the way to the mass...

Great looking truck! (And nice bumper, too. Just got back from Jim's place down in Houston and I love mine!) Those shoes are 255/85s, right? What suspension are you running and how much is it cranked, do you think? 2", 2.5" 3"? I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of those tires and I...

My girlfriend likes to say, "It's built just like you." (And, yes, she loves the truck, too.) I love my truck because it's an extension of who I am. Not too unlike a child.

ExPo, meet Arlo. This is him two weeks ago down on the Gulf: ...and Ozark fall color in late Oct: ...and earlier this summer above Pagosa Springs, CO:

Not just an XJ problem, partner... Exact same thing with the forward factory spring eye bushing/sleeve on my '01 Tacoma. Installing my new leaf packs would have been a 2 hour job had it not been for having to spend so much time cutting the seized spring bolts from the hangers with a plasma...

7wt, I have the same Leer bed lid you do and am just about ready to pull the trigger on a suspension. I'm curious if your 8-leaf Deaver pack is still to your liking with that added topper weight combined with a typical camping/expo load? I remember you saying in a previous post that you loved...

Great looking Tacoma, buddy. Makes me wanna get home to mine terribly. What size tires are those under the 2" of lift? I like the aggressive-looking stance. Thx.
