Have the CDEV on my 3rd gen tacoma and on my wife's 5th gen 4runner. It's really nice to be able to adjust and fine tune the feel of the shocks. Please keep us updated, there isn't a lot of quality content on youtube about the CDEV setups. Your 2.0 is off to a fantastic start!
Loving the additional elements being put into your videos :0) The truck looks great! Thank you for sharing! May God continue to bless you and your family! 😁♥
Jake does such an amazing job on y'alls stuff. I seriously want to drive up from FL just so he can wrap mine lol. That thing looks freakin sick Mike...
@LastLineOfDefense haha, it gets so hot here. That sounds like a fantastic idea. Been itching to get on more CO trails, too. I may just have to do this.
That is sick! That wrap with the satin was a great choice. Love the accents too. When you pulled it out of the shop I was like daaaaammmnnn haha! Nice work man! Just ordered some of your new stretch flannels including the one you’re wearing. Nice design and color on that one. Did you choose that?
You absolutely killed it Mike…killed it!!!!! Not sure if I like the satin vs matte better but if it makes for easier cleanup then I guess it makes the most sense.Never was into any stripes or decals but to pair those with the wheels and icon pieces 🤤 Looking forward to seeing it with the od bedrack accessories although personally I think black would look great too. Now we just need to see it out on the trails time for some weekendlander vids to drop. The LLOD V2 will break the internet so far the sickest gen 4 out there …. looks like Talon has some work to do lol. As far as tents go I’d live to see the FSR Hub 6 used as a hot tent with say 2~3 guys chillin in it . I ask for this one because it’s the only one I’ve seen with a door big enough to get my wheelchair thru unfortunately my cripple ass can’t get into a rooftop so still deciding on a car camping setup or a tent . of course a new flannel would come out not more than 2 months after I bought my 1st llod flannel……back to the Vertx store! Thanks for the share appreciated as always stay warm. P.s. GTR sounds so sick as if you don’t know but dayum thing was rattling my EarPods haaaaa
We've been using, local to you, C6 Outdoors for the "rooftop" temps and taken them off when we arent camping. Pretty convenient, id like to see how you think of them.
daaaaaaaaaang. at $2 per scoop I would be taking that sponsor too! Yes I know you are getting what you pay for but I would be abusing that sponsorship haha side note, the gold is so sick since nobody does it.
Love the wrap! The tailgate accent would look better more thin lined like the hood? Looking hella good otherwise 🙌🏼 Kinda wish I had the up top rack instead of my front runner 🤣 but i won mine…so free.99 wins every time lol.
Why not since you have kids and what not switch to a ground style tent like OZ RV3/4 tent? I’ve enjoyed my iKamper for years but now with my kiddos the ground tent is WAY more suitable for us. Either way love the new build and as always look sick! 🤙🏼
Why do you prefer to have the rake? I am currently running a slight rake in my suspension, and I was contemplating leveling it out more evenly, but I am torn.
Mike! Does your Diamondback HD’s rear weather stripping really impede you opening and closing the tailgate without a much force?! Mine always gets stuck and I have put countless types of lubricants on it. Any advice here?
...Also I'm pretty frugal but every time I see your GTR...IT'S TOTALLY AWESOME! I agree with your wife, it's definitely a keeper :0) I can really appreciate hard work and then treating yourself every now and again. :0)
I just picked up a Tedpop from Altitude Industries out in Morrison - cannot recommend Lee enough and the tent is great Korean quality (former lead design engineer from iKamper). He has some great deals going on! Happy to meet up and let you check out my tent if you want too
If you wanna try a lightweight high tech tent, try the inspired Overland carbon fiber tent if you want the best most comfortable tent I have tried yet it’s hard to beat the ikamper skycamp mini
Do these 24 Tacoma lift kits come with the internal bump stops like the factory front coilovers did??? I can’t find the info on that. I see everyone complain about internal bump stops but nobody is asking the front external bump stop kits and the lift kit companies do not say if they have the internal bump stops in their lift kits. So if we get new coilovers, do we just not have any front bump stops at all now???
Would be cool to see a tent from Alu-cab or Eezi-Awn or another South African manufacturer. Seems like they have their stuff pretty dialed and it would be interesting to see the comparison with US tent companies
I'd be interested in hearing about lightweight tents like the FrontRunner Feather-Lite. I have a mazda3 and would love to put a light RTT on the roof but it has to be lightweight, and since I'm saving up for a truck I don't want to spend 3 g's like on a skycamp mini.
The gtr the accent almost looks burnt orange(which I love) and the Tacoma definitely had a more gold look. If you HAD to make a change that’s what I would do…have the gold changed to look like the gtr
Tax reasons or some kind of registration loophole. I've heard of that Montana thing being popular in LA, Miami etc for getting out of local regulations when owning an exotic (expensive) car.
The HD on the Tacoma I believe is around 100lbs. The SE is lighter. I'm not sure exact, but I'm sure Diamondback customer service knows exact weights of each.
Dude how do you keep your vehicles batteries from dying? Before you got any of the garages to store them all. You have to have had vehicles in a place in the past where you dont' have outlets to plug in battery maintainers to. Are there any kind of battery maintainers that are rechargable that you can just leave on the batteries and recharge every now and then? The only thing I've been able to find are the jump starters that are not meant to be left connected to the battery long term.
Having been Keto for six years, grass-fed does not mean grass-fed grass-finished (the cattle never ate grain). Grass-fed, by law can simply mean that the cattle ate grass at some point in their life. Not knocking your sponsor, just dropping knowledge.
USDA’s FSIS defines in their materials “grass-fed” as 100% fed forage the length of its life after it’s been weaned off its mother’s milk. Whether it’s enforced or not is a different conversation
@@sTeadFasT96 We often find marketers using weasel words and false marketing. So that’s why the term grass finished, or 100% grass fed, had to be adopted, to thwart the fraudulent marketers selling corn fed beef as the higher quality grassfed type, since at one point or another pretty much all beef eats grass. It's the last bit of fattening up for market that makes all the difference.
Nice mall crawler. I for one cannot come to terms to spend the money that Toyota wants for the Tacoma just to get a shitty 4 banger motor and a crappy turbo.
Looks like a fast and furious driveway! That’s one sick looking truck
Love your Tacoma Mike! Fell in love with your 2016 and now this one! You can't miss!
Appreciate the love! 👍
I couldn’t see the vision when you first put the wheels on but wow it really came together great
Haha that's what I gotta tell my friends "just trust me bro"
Yooooo that wrap looks cleeeean 🔥 I love how camo looks on Toyota trucks
Yeah they're made for it

The gold and original colour was looking awesome! The wrap is nice but I really liked the original colour.
Cold start on that GTR was siiiick!
Great set up! You are truly living the dream!
I'm always impressed by how sexy your Tacoma custom is.
Keep it up, Taco-master!
Loving the additional elements being put into your videos :0) The truck looks great! Thank you for sharing! May God continue to bless you and your family! 😁♥
I agree, huge gripe when I can’t fit a Nalgene in a cup holder these days. Happy someone figure out a solution for new generation.
Jake does such an amazing job on y'alls stuff. I seriously want to drive up from FL just so he can wrap mine lol. That thing looks freakin sick Mike...
Make a little Colorado vacation out of it! (come in the summer when Florida is at its worst and Colorado is at its (arguably) best.
@LastLineOfDefense haha, it gets so hot here. That sounds like a fantastic idea. Been itching to get on more CO trails, too. I may just have to do this.

I miss the old Tacoma but man this new Tacoma is looking 👀 🔥🔥
The truck looks looks sick ✌️
Tacos and magic swords?! This vid wins!
Looks great Mike. well done.

Love your new wrap on your Tacoma!
That looks incredible!
Thank ya!
The Tacoma is sweet, but that GTR?!!! Just stole my heart bro!
It looks awesome! Nice job.
GFC camper, was the best thing I did for my gladiator (regret selling both of em but fj80 and 24 tundra can't complain)
The wrap looks amazing. I just don’t know how I feel about those yellow stripes and yellow rims.
We've been using, local to you, C6 Outdoors for the "rooftop" temps and taken them off when we arent camping. Pretty convenient, id like to see how you think of them.
Inspired Overland rtt
Looks good.
Flannel’s dope, Tacoma’s dope 👌🏻
Killer! Love it!
I would love to see you do a long term review of the FSR EVO V2!
Looking forward to seeing some quality seat covers for my 24
daaaaaaaaaang. at $2 per scoop I would be taking that sponsor too! Yes I know you are getting what you pay for but I would be abusing that sponsorship haha
side note, the gold is so sick since nobody does it.
Thank ya!
I dig it 😎
Living the dream 😂
I would redo the gold on the tailgate with either gray or a lighter black than the main wrap color
Happy you kept the multi cam black!
Very Awesome!
Sweet it looks rad
Cool music intro. Have you ever seen the Dodge Warlock pickup from the 70's? Thats what this kind of reminds me of.
Love the wrap! The tailgate accent would look better more thin lined like the hood?
Looking hella good otherwise 🙌🏼
Kinda wish I had the up top rack instead of my front runner 🤣 but i won mine…so free.99 wins every time lol.
Your tacoma is sick asf man. Im hoping you'll do weekend overlander camping videos again soon
An infinite number of weekenderlanders to come.
Wow wow wow!!
Time for Uptop R&D to work on the one RTT to rule them all!
Would love to see you get into a camper set up Mike. Like a GFC, SuperPacific, Lone Peak, Etc. I feel like you could do a lot with that kind of space
I maybe have something coming soon, maybe
Wrap looks very Talon Sei inspired, LOVE IT!! 🎉 Edit: just so people know I mean the orange accents :)
No orange on this truck, but I've been doing orange since before Talon had a truck, just fyi. 😉
@@LastLineOfDefense 😂, yeh I realised it wasn’t orange about a minute later when you said it was gold 😅. Either way it looks awesome 🙌🏻.
Oh and the comment about the orange and Talon is funny 😂.
Why not since you have kids and what not switch to a ground style tent like OZ RV3/4 tent? I’ve enjoyed my iKamper for years but now with my kiddos the ground tent is WAY more suitable for us. Either way love the new build and as always look sick! 🤙🏼
Tacomas were meant to be wraped and this way is clean
100%
I’d be interested in seeing a Roam RTT. They seem like a good company and probably what I would go with if I could afford an overland rig. One day! 🤞🏻
Why do you prefer to have the rake? I am currently running a slight rake in my suspension, and I was contemplating leveling it out more evenly, but I am torn.
I agree with the rear gold accent. Might be cool to do the tacoma lettering instead
Check victory 4x4 they have solid interior accessories mounts
Man I think gold and camo. No way. But seem to always bring colors together and make it look awesome👍
Mike! Does your Diamondback HD’s rear weather stripping really impede you opening and closing the tailgate without a much force?! Mine always gets stuck and I have put countless types of lubricants on it. Any advice here?

Missing out on a covered bed way more functional with a split shelf double sled system
Man my man living good now coogi sweater now…
Back to the Future vibes

I've been looking at the 23Zero roof top tents. They just released the armadillo AX that looks interesting.

Yoooooooo when did Mike get a GTR🤣 I pop in here and there but these wraps are clean🤌

What camera do you use?
Truck looks amazing! How does the new engine feel? Are you concerned about it being a twin turbo 4 cylinder?
It's light-years better than even supercharged 3rd gens. We'll see on reliability though
@@LastLineOfDefense 🤞
What’s with that 3g tundra in the background?
It's one of Runnin4Tacos trucks that he let me borrow to drive back home when I dropped off my Shorty Tundra at his shop.
So are you not doing Ag1 anymore??
Like am I drinking ag1 anymore? I do still have a couple bags left that I'm working through.
I’m surprised no rock rails yet?
Yeah, probably all the armor will come at once. Bit of a lead time on it, and I wanted to just do it all at once.
Definitely would have skipped the accents on the wrap. In case you want to change wheel and component colors later.
The accents are technically just overlays - so they can actually be removed or changed at any time!
@ ok, that’s good.
Keep the GT-R!
9.5 out of 10…I agree, the gold on tailgate, looks gimmicky. Out of curiosity, what’s the clearance with the new setup?
All roads lead back to Glock.
Looks interesting.
The gtr the accent almost looks burnt orange(which I love) and the Tacoma definitely had a more gold look. If you HAD to make a change that’s what I would do…have the gold changed to look like the gtr
Yeah color for color I like the copper / burnt bronze look as well.
Those tires are 12.5 in wide or 13.5 in wide? Seems very wide for 12.5
They are 12.5" width.
I spy another 3rd gen tundra in the background. New vehicle??
I've had a 3rd gen tundra for about 3 years, but the other one in my driveway belongs to a friend
why is it registered in montana?
Tax reasons or some kind of registration loophole. I've heard of that Montana thing being popular in LA, Miami etc for getting out of local regulations when owning an exotic (expensive) car.
Cheaper registration and no smog test
Makes things easier for a variety of reasons, and also a little more private.
@@LastLineOfDefenseBig Horn County is cheaper lol
How much does the diamondback weigh?
The HD on the Tacoma I believe is around 100lbs. The SE is lighter. I'm not sure exact, but I'm sure Diamondback customer service knows exact weights of each.
Let’s see no roof top tent. Let’s see a popup shelter like the overlandish.

Too busy wondering if he couls, that he never stopped to wonder if he should.
seriously!?... seriously for real!?.... where is the thing we all want to see more of? Mr Puppy Dog?!!!
Haha he’s growing fast - I’ll toss him in a vid soon.
Nice build but I still like your OG, 3rd gen better.
I honestly didn’t like the new gen Tacoma until I saw thiswrap
the GTR goes really well with your personality, your other trucks and the whole image.
I know we all saw the red Jeep and the tundra with no mods in the back ground…
My good ol’ plow jeep. I showed it a bit in the previous video to this one.
Roam adventure Co desperado
By the way, I need to start making videos
Accent should be not too loud. The gold at the back is yikes.
Am I the only one who thinks the wheels are too big?

You have one?
