    Default My New Truck (pics)

    So I decided to go with a Tacoma instead of the FJ Cruiser. I definitely stoked on my choice. What do you guys think? (sorry for the gay picture quality/lighting/size ...i don't have photoshop on my new comp)

    Stats:
    2006 Tacoma V6 TRD Sport Crew Cab
    3" Revtech lift
    33" M/T tires on 17" blk/slvr wheels


    the truck


    the wheels ...the guy that did my lift/tires/wheels said he could have them powder coated all-black (like i originally wanted). what do you guys think?

    Congrats man. And yeah, go with the powder coating. It will not only look good, but its a little unique. Not your run of the mill...

    should have gotten the truck in white. j/k

    but seriously powdercoat them black...the black and silver rims look a little tacky and gangster leanish.

    Very nice man! I like it a lot! Some blingin' rims, but they work well with the new gen tacos. If you can, try and get bigger pics. Good choice again over the FJ!

    As for painting them black...I like it the way they are. It's how they were designed (the certain color ways they have) so leave 'em be. Goes well with the color of the truck.

    oh shut up... that's not even a full size truck. the guy is having fun lay off of him.

    his truck is rated to make 18/22 miles per gallon... not too shabby for a truck. I have a chevy colorado and I use it for hauling surf and skimboards every time I go out, which is a lot. It regularly makes over 20 mpg.

    do you realized how long some people wait for gas in other countries? it can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours. its because idiots like this guy that the gas is wasted. im so sick of seein trucks for people that don't even need em (maybe this guy does but he prob doesn't).

    he's an idiot because he bought a truck? the point is that truck is only a midsize, it's not gonna take much longer at a gas station than any full size sedan or something similar.

    Its cool, see I needed a truck to pull my boat, but the gas mileage was killing me, so I sold my truck and bought a hybrid. But because I really "NEEDED" my truck, and don't have it anymore, I'll pass my truck rights onto Noah...

    Im sure somewhere in the supply chain for the weed you smoke there are big trucks involved. So stop burning so much if your worried about fuel supplies.

    Save your bitchn for the soccer moms that drive h3's. This guy has a mid-size truck with a relatively economic v6.

    definitely powder coat those wheels. The chrome is way too blingish in my opinion. Not black though...... like anthracite or some grey color would be sick.

    Here's my V-8 Titan..I drive it around when i'm not driving my 350Z, and I thouhgt i'd put it up here so you can quit bitchin about this mans tocoma..If you would like more oil and more gas, write the whitehouse and ask them..If you are sick of seeing trucks for people that don't need them as you say then keep it to yourself..I love my truck..I wouldn't trade it for a 4-banger or ricer anyday to get better gas mileage..So there..

    Nice truck. I hope you love it as much as Ilove mine. I think yu should keep the wheels the color they are. Put some chrome tube steps on that bad boy and it'd be even tighter. I think the wheels now make a nice contrast with the big tires. If you go black it might look kind of cheap. Just my 2cents

    yeah, the gas mileage is actually really descent (18/22 like doug said). if you have ever been anywhere in america you'll realize most vehicles get wayy worse mileage. and again, it might be considered a mid-size truck at the most. nowhere near a full size chevy, ford, or dodge.

    pack a bowl, your username alone invalidates anything you say. go smoke your lunch.

    everyone else, thank you for the props.
