You should try the naming conventions like they use with tropical storms. Start with a name in the A's and then work through the alphabet. You did Abner and Clara, so you should try a B or a D. Maybe Dexter.

I absolutely love the shrockworks front bumpers, but I was on allpro's website and their apex bumper really caught my eye. The price is right too. I may end up going that route and have some cash leftover for a winch.

Wow. That is a sexy bumper and very affordable compared to others of the same style. When I get another 4 door I will be getting one of these. Hopefully sooner than later. My Tundra is for sale.

I found a group buy on the allpro bumper that'll save me $100, but shipping is $140, so total price is $640. Still out of my price range. I'm thinking I'll buy a winch then build a bumper around that winch. I found an even cooler bumper:

A little more $, but it tucks up nice and doesn't hang out there so much. I plan on building mine after the elite one.

Did you just imply you're going to get another 4 door? How soon are we talking?

don't do it! A tacoma won't town your trailer nearly as well as your tundra.

Yes I implied that. As soon as it sells I will buy one unless I find an amazing deal before then. If I do I will swap over my tires, wheels, and stereo stuff. I know it won't tow as well but lately I haven't towed a lot. I just park my trailer on the job. If I do need to tow I will just use my wife's Touareg. It is rated to tow more than my tundra anyways. And it brakes better.

What can I say, I miss wheeling and the tundra doesn't cut it.

sounds like you're trying to talk yourself into selling the tundra. Have you already made up your mind? When was the last time you went wheeling?

Last time I went wheeling was in my Tacoma. Last time I attempted wheeling was in my tundra but it hangs too low and is too long and can't turn in tight spots. I made it halfway up constrictor in my Tacoma and parked it to prevent damage and rode shotgun with someone else. When I had my LJ or other jeeps I went wheeling 2-3 times a month.

I always wanted a dc but when my Chevy sold there were none available that I wanted and I knew I liked tundras. I needed a vehicle ASAP so I bought it. It was kind of a hold me over vehicle in a way. I loved everything about my xc and miss it!

why did you sell your dc?

Sold my dc only because the towing and because I was an idiot. I saw a chance to make some money and I took it and regret it.
We are selling her touareg but we will replace it with a diesel touareg which will tow even more. And get better mpg.

It's all good. We've all sold a rig that we instantly regretted later.
