Confirmed: 2.4L/2.7L Supercharger Due Next Week

Our dirt diggers have been hard at it again. In a telephone conversation with representatives at TRD USA, a sales representative (who shall remain anonymous) revealed that a new Supercharger kit will be released next week.

The only details available at this time are that the suggested retail price of the unit will be $2995. The sales rep was unable to give any details on the expected performance boost. He commented that "Testing is still underway."


Expect to see a full press release and article on this topic next week.

Owner Gallery System Established

That's right. Your favorite custom Tacoma website has done it again. After much searching, installing, and tweaking, the CustomTacos.com staff is proud to announce that the new Owner Gallery system is in place and ready for your photos.

Since it's inception in early November, CustomTacos.com enthusiasts have been screaming for an owner gallery system to share photos of their truck, their friends, and their families. The current discussion forum system allows users to post one picture in their profile, but no more than that. The new system will allow users to upload up to five of their favorite photos.


Users will also be given the ability to customize the layout of their gallery page, rotate their photos, leave comments for other users in the gallery, and MUCH more.


The entire system is totally free. If you'd like to request a login to create your own personal photo gallery, please visit the Owner Gallery page. Please be sure to read the owner gallery policies before you request a login.


In addition, the main Gallery page has been redesigned to better accommodate the growing demand for eye (and ear) candy on CustomTacos.com.


We welcome any comments you have about the recent changes made.

As you see from the photos above, the sleek design incorporates sharp body lines, a tall sweeping roofline that includes two sunroofs. Aluminum 18" wheels provide rolling attire for the car.


The interior of the CCX proves how much thinking Toyota has put into this concept. Four passengers can enjoy neoprene seats, five-point harnesses, DVD entertainment and more. There is also a cargo space with tie-downs to provide extra space for bikes, snowboards and more.
