    I'd love to have one, but if it's not a Reg. cab 4X4, I'd be out. Like with the big ones, no access nor double cabs would even be considered.

    @TegoTaco those are cool. Look very much like Tacos...what are they? Hilux? Where did you get them? What scale are they? Grab some tape and some duplicolor an old man might become a kid again.

    I respect that! however carrying people in a pinch is necessary for me. there was five of us needing to go to a basketball game in the snowstorm a few days ago. We had a single cab 4x4 taco, and access cab 2wd taco in the driveway, lol we stuffed 5 of us in the 2wd and had some fun in the snow.

    One day I wanna build a single cab 5 lug into a racetruck

    Think they’re 1/24 scale but I could be wrong I’ll double check. Got them off of AliExpress. :) It even has the classic Toyota on the tailgate.

    Naw Luke-Maine, I get it. The long Tacos are great for the folks who like, or need them. It's just me, I like the reg. cab so much, I can't imagine me in a bigger Taco. I'm different, most everyone wants the longest they can get, probably they would buy a dual wheeled Taco if they were available, I'm glad they like them & have them, hope they are as happy with theirs as I am with mine. But me, it's reg. cab, or a ..... uh, I don't know.
