SEMA: Toyota Tundra Build

I have built several project vehicles for the SEMA Show over the years, including this 2008 Toyota Tundra. I asked my friend Ryan at Dirt-Tech if he would build me a cage that provided room for two spare tires, a modular light bar, Powertank and floor jack mount. He knocked it out of the park as always. The front bumper also came out gorgeous. Here are a few snaps of the cage as it was completed and mounted to the truck just before heading to SEMA. I later had the cage clear coated for rust protection. The truck was featured in Off-Road Magazine and in Pro Comp's booth at the 2008 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, NV.

Toyota LC Launch

Big Sky, Montana, is one of the most beautiful places I have been. Located in the NW corner of Yellowstone National Park, it's packed with endless rivers & streams, valleys, mountains, lush rolling hills, a ton of incredible wildlife and forests as far as the eye can see. I was in town on a business trip with Toyota for the launch of their new Landcruiser. Toyota rented part of the ski slopes and converted them into an off-road course for us Editors. It was a blast rolling around steep ski lines in a truck! I have to admit, there were a handful of scary drop-offs that had a few of us doubting the capability of the Landcruiser. The truck did great and the views didn't disappoint. Enjoy some casual point and shoot snaps.
