No offense, but someone has got to be crazy to be getting rid of such an incredible expo rig. Sounds like the current owner just got it built perfectly to suit his needs. Now selling for a sportsmobile? Maybe I'm just too much of a Toyota truck fan, but I can't get my head around it. To each his own, though. I do understand that sometimes you've just got to move on to something a little different.
Someone will be getting their hands on an excellent truck, no doubt. Saddens me to see it change hands for some reason. Guess I'm sort of sentimental. After that much work, and the countless memories involved with a rig like this, the builds, the mods, the articles, the forum discussions, all the trips, photos, etc... it's got to be like a member of the family, I would think. I feel like I know this truck pretty well, just from all the times I've seen it out and about at events (drooling all the way home), on different websites, in write-ups, mags, etc. I've read a lot of how-to's and gotten a bunch of ideas for my truck from watching what's been done to this one.
Beautifully built/modified truck, gentlemen. I know there have been many hands and minds involved with this build to get it to where it is as it sits today. And you've all done an incredible job! Its still such a young rig too, someone's going to get a great ride that'll be reliable for many trips to come. I'm already building my own '03 D-cab Taco, or I'd have considered buying it myself.
