Some pretty good snow action recently, check out the Demello Offroad rear bumper

Been too long since I've seen my favorite Tacoma. LOVE the new upgrades Dave! :drool:

Yes, you've made a really nice set-up. I like the table on the swingout. Looks like you could hang bikes off the receiver and still swing it open. That would be handy for us.

Indeed, Demello Offroad did a GREAT job on the rear bumper - added a lot of much needed utility and kept it light.

Elegant setup, my man! You are an expedition artist!

This is going to be a cool project with sPOD



Bluetooth remote control of these Rigid Industries lights and accessories? What a great idea!

Can I get some more info on your mudflaps since they look home made? Looks like you may have made a bracket that hangs down on the back side.

I need to make a set for myself- What material and thickness did you use for the flap? Trying to figure out if more rigid, maybe 1/8" ABS, or urethane is the way to go...

Regular heavy duty diesel truck flaps from NAPA cut to fit, brackets by Demello

I've been called worse things

Well... 2005 was a long time ago now. This truck took us everywhere we wanted to go in the 11 years we owned it.

Just wanted to post this update that the Tacoma has been sold to the fine folks over at YodaTEQ so this thread will no longer be updated by me.

One of my all time favorite rigs. What is next?
