    This is pretty cool, but oh dear, now the Tacoma guys have something new to excessively outfit their truck with. RTT on the truck, RTT on the trailer. How many orange plastic boards can you fit on it?

    Kinda fits in perfectly with this meme.

    I don't understand. Is it just a mock-up of available accessories mounted to a bed? Or is it a trailer made from a tacoma bed?

    It's a trailer made from a taco bed.

    So THIS is what they've been doing with all the rusted frames that broke in half.

    :rofl:

    In my area it's rather common to see truck beds thrown on small trailer frames. Seen a lot of landscapers do this. A few years back I saw a clean K20 with a matching bed trailer, that was sick.

    Seems a little small doesn't it?

    I've got one of these in my driveway... M101A3. 8' bed, 55" between the wheel wells, 37" Humvee runflats..:rofl:

    I use it for lumber and landscape debris, but it'd make a hell one an overland trailer!

    HUMVEE for scale, not included. :D

    They've cut away the part in front of the wheel to make room for the box that contains the fridge.

    I wish they spent that time into making options for the Tundra that they offer for the Tacoma instead of making an overland trailer. Factory Rear locker, rear bed 12 volt plug, etc ......

    This meme is amazing lmao. I guess i'm just old school bringing a ground tent and a cooler ratchet strapped in my bed to camp with.

    Won't lie though, that overland trailer is pretty cool.

    Yeah, those are nice. I saw one for sale once and am kicking myself I didn't buy it. It'd be a fun project.
