Awesome truck, I am a bit biased but awesome is awesome any way you look at it. Almost bought that color......still really like it a lot.
Thanks! The cement color of the Tacoma was my second choice color but i couldn't put this color aside. Love the quicksand!!

Update on the Tacoma Build. While researching roof top tents i realized that i might need another top brace to secure it down better. Otherwise it might be difficult when the time comes to mount it. To be on the safe side i got another cross member. Should be here in a week just in time when i order the roof top tent hopefully.

Update on the Taco, Got my 2nd bar installed on my roof rack. Also ordered a rooftop tent so that should be here by next week sometime. Can't wait to get camping this spring!

Big update on the Overland Taco. Got my Rooftop Tent and have installed it. I'm really glad i made the purchase of this brand. It is cheap compared to the others but it still has a good quality feel. Here are some pictures of it installed.

Haven't posted in a while dude to work and things going on. But I'd thought I would update on a couple mods that I have done a little while ago. Added amber lights in the front grille as well as added all new kicker speakers in the truck. Sounds better than those stock paper speakers.

Haven’t posted in quite a while but the Tacoma has gotten a lot done to it including various visual upgrades. But most importantly installed a CB radio to help with communication. Light bar and shackles to the front are other things done to it. Looking to continue with more overland gear in the future.

Looks great! I'm such a big advocate of console and glovebox dividers. They've been, by far, one of my most useful modifications to date in both our vehicles.

It’s definitely helpful so stuff doesn’t slide around or get so cluttered. It was actually my first add on as it was fairly cheap when I first got the truck.
