Slick ride dude. Slick. I am wondering though, is that a large run on the passengers door seam, or is it the photo. I love the colour. NOt too much chrome. I do like the blacked out look. Next you have to put in a small block chevy.

John, I have an '01 Tacoma and I LOVE IT! Nothin' better than a new truck, even if someone else had it before you. Enjoy. S

Wow, Sands, it looks like a whole new truck! I bet it feels like a new truck too. I had a friend that used to say she just felt like her car ran better after it was detailed. They done ya proud. It even looks like a newer year model. Run, Doc? What run? I don't see it. : Congrats on the paint job, cookie

Oh, a newbie. Waaaay cool. Break it in, and go synthetic. Go Castrol Syntec for two changes after 12,000, then go Mobile 1 10-40. It will last forever. Slick ride. Have a ball.

That is the most expensive paint job I have ever seen. That is a great new vehicle you got there. Looks like a lot of room to put rocks when you go rock hunting. Tami
