You may have seen the Toytec Tacoma before, but never in full SEMA setup. For their second year at the big SEMA show in Las Vegas, Toytec enhanced their already very well built Tacoma with a few additional features.
The 2009 TRD Double cab 4x4 already had a TRD Supercharger, AFE Air intake, and Flowmaster duel exhaust to ‘enhance’ performance, but for the show Doug & the crew added new Toytec BOSS lift with Toytec BOSS rear springs and rear Icon reservoir shocks and bump stops. A new custom color-keyed aluminum front bumper with Rigid 30” SR LED light bar and XRC 8000lb winch replaced the stock plastic, and an aluminum skid plate was added. Lighting was enhanced even more with PIAA LED driving lights and a Rigid 40” Double row light bar with custom roof rack mounts, and an HID conversion kit for the headlights.

Earlier this year Redline Land Cruisers completed an amazing FJ-45 custom build, and we’re excited to reveal this classic Land Cruiser to the world.
Snowflake is the name Justin gave to this substantial project, which is very interesting considering the Toyota-original “Free Born Red” main color. We had the opportunity to spend some time with Snowflake before she made her way home to Southern Colorado. This truly is a very special build.

In 2010 my wife Tiffany and I were excited, surprised and terrified to find that we would be welcoming a child into the world. Eight weeks after the initial shock, we were informed that not one, but two girls were on their way. Of course my mind went to all of the things that we had grown to love as a couple and what we wanted to continue to enjoy with a family. Many of the activities that we enjoyed: camping, hiking, biking, skiing etc., revolved around a four wheel drive vehicle. In fact, I had been driving 4x4s since high school, primarily as a means of access to remote areas but also for the fun and challenge of the drive. I set out to find a vehicle that provided a blend of off-road performance while transporting four people and a dog in comfort. Jeep, Land Rover and Toyota immediately came to mind.
