toyota, tacoma, mud, 4x4, pickup, truck, dirty, muddyThe Toyota Tacoma has a well-earned reputation for being extremely tough and reliable. As I cruised through South Denver, CO, I saw this muddied, bashed, beaten and abused Toyota Tacoma – I said, “Hallelujah! Now THAT’S how you treat a Taco!!!” I know it still runs as it moved to different parking locations throughout the week.

I know, some folks like to baby their trucks. I’ve read about those people and seen a few here and there. One of the issues I have is: if you own a truck, you MUST use it! What’s up with all of you adding wax, polishing, washing and caressing your mighty pickup trucks!?

Pickup trucks are meant to pull, leap, smash and carry. That’s what this dude (I’m assuming it’s a “dude”) did with this Toyota Tacoma. Must SMASH rocks! PULL HOUSE! SQUASH PUNY MUD!!! Augggghh!!!! YES! YESSS! Nathan SMASH!!!

Speaking of a “proper” truck…
