    If you've ever had crappie. Bass are just bigger crappie. It's kinda dumb how good they taste. There's a whole stigma when it comes to catch and keeping them. But I only practice catch and release during their spawn. Otherwise, it's fair game lol

    I didn't keep any today though, just took a friend out and I'm teaching him the ways

    Weight reduction, mostly rust.
    Never been a big fish eater, but I used to own land/access to a pretty ritzy private lake where we would just slay the Bass.
    I would wash the filets super thoroughly... and the in-laws said they tasted like walleye. :burp::notsure:

    Head unit, sub's , components, front / back camera's, too many lights to mention, dual battery, winch / bumper, TRS projector headlights, roof nest hard-shell, integrated backup spot lights, vault, all aluminum radiator / water pump, tailgate storage, plenty of dents and scratches
    Curious, do those windshield sunshine blockers really help? Help with the heat blocking, functional?

    Truck was still very new to me, man she used to be so shiny! :rofl:

    Absolutely. You've never tried one? A decent one makes a big difference but it also protects your dash.

    Yes, it’s a RSI smart Cap knock off from Alibaba.RSI doesn't make one for our trucks. I posted pictures building it in “the what have you done to your tundra today “section…It's all aluminum and custom made . If you want to look in there, here’s a couple though.

    Shows some pictures assembling it. It comes in 3 large boxes on a pallet.

    There are not any companies making this type of shell for 1st gen Tundras. I had it custom made in China , purchased through Alibaba.com. It's basically a RSI Smart Cap knock off. The steel standard model for a current truck model with metal windoors is about $1000. So for a custom made to fit, with upgraded glass windows on the sides and aluminum it was about $1500. Shipping to Long Beach, customs, duty and trucked to San Diego was another $500.

    The link shows the company I used. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/4x4-Waterproof-8FT-Steel-Pickup-Hardtop_1600266881926.html

    The have a form/diagram that you complete with all your measurements that you send back to them, and it takes about 2 months for them to build it , then another 1.5 months for shipping from China. I am happy with the quality.

    A rear locker and big tires go a long way on Toyota prerunners. I used to get into all kinds mischief in my 1GT TRD Tacomas. E-locker for the win.
