I am a prior Marine and am building this with tons of re-purposed military items as well a wrapping the entire truck in camo. The interior is getting re-upholstered in vintage military canvas also. This is all happening within the next couple months. So the "inspired" part is coming.
Cool, Semper fi Devil Dog!
When were you in, where were you stationed, mos?
84-88 Cmp Lejeune, 2nd Mar. Div. HQ Battalion, Comm Co. Mux Plt.

Update on the interior:

Katzkin Tuscany Leather with Perforated Suede
Degreez heated and cooled seat options to make those hot summers and cold winters a little more pleasant.

I need to get on the ball on the wrap design for sure!

Kryptek would be so sweet!

I want to wrap the whole truck in a solid matte color and then have the camo come in at random areas like a 3/4 camo fill (this is what I am trying to get figured out).
That would look good. I was thinking a camo wrap also but when I saw pictures of other trucks I thought it just looks a little too busy for me. Digital desert and realtree camos anyway.
Maybe a partial snow/uploadfromtaptalk1453498187975.jpgwoodland look since mine is black and white.

Anyone else stoked for the Superbowl?!
I was just in Scottsdale AZ when the Patriots landed but couldn't talk my wife into extending our trip and dropping a few thousand on tickets :(

Regardless stoked to watch the Seahawks OWN the Patriots!

What do you think of the Bullydog tuner? Their website is about as useful as tits on a boar hog when it comes to info about the actual performance gains. Worth the money or no? IYO of course.

Hey are you planning on going to the overland expo east this year?

Also I am looking at the tacoma for another expo vehicle. It'll be used but the same generation as yours. what models or features should I look for in your opinion. Wanting to build it similar to yours.
