Been working hard, day in and day out to build this rig. This is my daily driving Long Travel Toyota Tacoma. Challenges do occur with it being my daily driver, for example I can't really do any project that take longer than two days because I need to go to work. For the 2020 Year I am hoping to get a new Daily Driver so this truck can take the next step in the right direction. Hope you enjoy watching the progress as much as I do.
