I'm actually looking forward to building something. I know it will be more expensive and it will literally take forever. Here's the vision in 5ish years after buying the truck. If it works half as well as this on (Booger Weldz on Pirate) I'll be stoked. I found an 04 with less than 40k on it in my price range. Should be a darn good starting point!

I figure if I sell the 4Runner, Corolla and possibly the Ford I can build/buy a daily driver that will meet most of my needs and save some money. It won’t be as big or as capable as the 4Runner but it will get me where I need to go. I’m leaning toward early 2000s double cab Tacoma or an FJ60 – come on…a jeep would be like cheating. The vision is something that can run the Rubicon and still get me to work. It won’t be Hammers/Fordyce worthy but it’ll get me where I want to go. I figure I can pick up something like the red truck below or a cruiser like this one (http://forum.ih8mud.com/vehicles-traile ... ve-ca.html) and swap a motor in it. Anybody daily drive their rig? Love it? Hate it? Will I regret it?

its funny how its starts like this......

It's all downhill from here. 🙁
