    Found this site, did a lot of reading & homework and bought an 03 AC 4x4 210,XXX miles. I'm a Tacoma & old old FJ40 dude. The power and torque this thing puts out surprised me, spinning tires like a teenager, not used to so much power! It's dark and raining right now, so I'll get some Pics tomorrow, y'all like pics right?

    Some pics of past rides

    Some pics of the new ride. Quick question, it has TRD stickers on the bed, but no rear locker? Did someone put some cool stickers on, or did the rear locker not come in the Tundra? tundra1.jpg tundra2.jpg tundra3.jpg
