    I'm in love with my 2023 Taco 4x4 double cab! Got a base model SR so I could mod it, now got $10k into mods including: ABR Summit bumper (new style), 10k winch, light bar, spot lights, wheels, tires, canopy, rock slider steps, etc. Couldn't be happier! This is the last truck of an amazing era!

    Mike you make these overlanding adventures an experience with the information, cast-members, TRUCKS, music, and amazing footage!...they are like love letters to Taco Nation. Love this channel! I feel like I'm there and that I can do these things too. Keep doing what you're doing brother...nobody else does it like this...

    I live in Minnesota and own a 2019 TRD Off Road Tacoma with 265/75/16 BFG KO2's and it is great in the snow! I keep some recovery boards and a shovel in the bed of my truck but have never had to use them thus far.

    That voodoo blue with the soft topper looks so gooooood. Soft toppers look best on Tacoma’s. TFL has one on their raptor and it literally made it the worst ugliest looking raptor I’ve ever seen in my life. The leds on the voodoo blue look so good as well.

    Tacoma has 9.5 inches clearance stock, these are lifted at least another 2" by tire size and suspension, so you figure 10+ inches of snow with little to no issue. Comparatively speaking. That's insane how good these are in snow.

    I've a got a 2018 with a winch and it's great. I did try some hefty chains on and they only work on the back and when I got them on snug the chains made knocking sounds. I took them off as I was worried they would damage something out in the middle of nowhere but for the few minutes in use it was like night and day.

    I never drove my new 2020 in the snow. Had my stock tires. Subaru outback got stuck in this parking lot with about 15" of snow. I went up there on my stock shit ass tires just fine :) even took the truck on 2 trails with the stock tires it held up very well

    Ive never been a fan of a locked center diff for snow. the truck will plow when steering. poor weight distribution makes that worse. Very few proper 4x4 vehicles can have an unlocked state for the center diff. i think g wagon and maybe some land cruisers
