    Hey everyone on saturday I picked up arvieg's old truck.

    http://www.toyotaminis.com/forum/vehicles-27/fs-91-toyota-pickup-single-cab-8766/

    It's my 1st mini truck ever. I have a 2001 sequoia and a 2001 VW Passat 1.8T but the truck is by far the coolest vehicle I have ever owned. I was a honda guy growing up so this truck stuff seems complicated at the moment.

    Look forward to meeting some of you guys

    Yeah, it seems that a lot of people on here are from San Diego. I am down to hang out just let me know when.

    I have a couple things planned. First thing is to change the suspension set up a little bit. Probably later on get the body work squared away. The truck is so low right now it's hard to daily drive so I have to figure out how to do the torsion bars.

    City Heights but moving down to Chula Vista in the next two weeks.

    Welcome to TM. Love those wheels he put on there. Was trying to get them from him but he never responded. A truck is never to low to be a daily driver. Mine is lower then yours right now and its my daily. SO besides the suspension what else do you have planed for it?

    Body work, the bed has some pretty decent damage. Besides that I don't know enough about the truck to have anything else planned. I did hit up beefed taco about a c-notch. We will see what happens after I have been here a while.
