    I'm on o'ahu for 10 days and damn it's fun looking at all the different tacomas. 2nd gen back to 70's model pickups. Built to the hilt too. The only trend I don't get that I'm seeing a lot is a big lift with wide short mud tires. Mostly Pre first gen but I dig em either way. Definately makes me miss mine. Especially since we're in a damn Chevy traverse. This thing sucks.

    Just thought I'd share. You can't go 10 feet without seeing a built taco.

    I noticed that when I visited Hawaii. There was so many tacomas running around. It was the best of both worlds. I was in Hawaii and there was countless tacomas everywhere.

    We were in Honolulu all day today. Shit the traffic sucks. It way better out in Haleiwa. I don't believe you can go to Cuba and don't waste your money in Mexico. It's amazing here. The people re awesome and the surf is killer. It's expensive though. Just know that. I havnt had a meal under 100 bucks yet. There are 5 of us though.

    We ate lunch at the royal Hawaiian then walked around that area for a bit. Pretty cool but typical big city. We are going back in a couple days for a puka dog and spam sushi. What is the HE>I I keep seeing?

    He is greater than I.

    Try to stay out of Waikiki. The real Hawaii is out in the country. Try Maui, Kauai or big island next time you come to Hawaii. Much less touristy and city.
    Enjoy! :cool:

    That's awesome. I'll stop by the store for a sticker in haleiwa tomorrow. Yea. We didn't dig the city much. Out in the sticks is way better. We rented a house in wialua. It's awesome. Waikiki was beautiful but over run with tourists.
