What we really need is someone to make a kit to put a wrecked 5.7L Tundra motor in the Tacoma... I've seen a handful of V8 swaps, but mostly on earlier model trucks.

Thanks boo. Haha I am selling my 2020 Pro once it gets back here.
Although I went against my own advice and ordered a 23 Off-Road with the full premium/adv tech packages and 6’ bed.
Right now I’m driving around in a rental and it’s terrible because I was just told of a great spot to shoot in the desert. …the rental can’t physically make it or I’d take it haha
What I want is my 03 Tundra’s V8 in the Tacoma. That thing was just right and had some balls for a little truck. I actually thought of buying an older 06 Tundra but decided not to because going from a 20Pro to an 06Limited with tan leather and tan dash would be too much of a downgrade lol
I haven't completely ruled out the V8 idea yet, but it's still a few years off... I think in the short term I'm going to regear & tune, see if that's enough to kinda make me happy with it. Now we can be Tacomer bro's AND AI bro's.
I had a 2014 Taco with all of 12,000 miles and traded it last Xmas to the dealer for a slightly used '21 Tundra. The dealer gave me an incredible amount for the Taco (like I drove it for free for 7 years), came down on the Tundra's price and beat my credit union's financing. It was a no brainer and now I have a V-8 Tundra (no likey the 22's with their BS V6) that I'll keep until my expiration date.
I mean sure, if you want to be smart & responsible...
I'm looking for a .223 bolt or bolt body. Anyone have any leads? I know a couple of small companies are making them.
Thanks
Thanks
Oh it's the one I'm thinking of for sure then lol not too many black multi's out there let alone in 308 
Buy a PowerStroke turbo diesel, be a man. 500hp 1100ftlbs. 22mpg.
I got one with an Excursion, last year they were making them. Maybe the year before, can't remember any more.
After 22,000 miles the rear main seal starting leaking...
Dumped it shortly after that.

I stopped dating fat chicks when I couldn’t afford diesel.
It’s been a cold winter w no fat chicks. The summer will also be sad because they also provide shade.
Go be poor somewhere else, Nando.I stopped dating fat chicks when I couldn’t afford diesel.
Back in 2018, when my son just got his license to drive at 16 years old. I wanted to teach my son driving standard. And since we needed a vehicle for him, I said why not a Tacoma in stick shift. Perfect for high a schooler. Plus he can drive us to the range now. While I’m still rocking my 2008 GMC 4x4 Sierra diesel which I don’t let no one in my family drive, I decided to get the pro for him.

Good call, Dad! Those trucks are for kids.
Now THAT I will agree with, haha!
I hope all is well, buddy! That .308 is still loving 185 Juggernaut’s. You been out lately, lord knows I haven’t…. I’m taking the AI with me next weekend to get some reps in.
I'm thinking of trying a 6br outta mine next year lol
Bro I haven't been out in a coon's age, haha! This has probably been my worst year for long range shooting. DID just get my reloading bench built, so I'm optimistic that I'm headed in the right direction... Need to thread my .223 barrel on & turn this thing into the world's most expensive 'trainer'.
Glad that barrel is hammering for ya, dude!
What would an AXSR give me that my MC won't? Still trying to figure that out
I'm more of a factory ammo shooter. However Bartlein just delivered my 300NM barrel that I hope to use for the NF ELR shoot.
Nothing that I can think of. I doubt I will ever sell my AXMC.
The only two things I can think of off hand I wish it did was .223 and MAYBE an MDT vertical grip.
You can buy new skins for the grip problem...I am still not sure if the cost is worth it. I have gotten used to the standard AI grip.
A .223 option form AI would be awesome but not sure that will ever happen.
Agree to both. On the plus side, our barrels are plentiful and don't need stupid extensions like the imposters.
The smaller firing pin is nice for some cartridge’s and I like the grip angle.
That said the AXMC is still a fine capable platform
You can get SFP for the AXMC. My 308/6.5 bolt is SFPThe smaller firing pin is nice for some cartridge’s and I like the grip angle.

But on magnum and lapua bolt face you have to send the AXMC bolts off to be bushed.
Uh false homie...I got all 3 factory sfp bolts.... Lol
Like these?

Guess I got up sold on an axsr at mhsa
There’s nothing wrong with either!! But I wouldn’t sell one at a loss to get the other. I like the AXSR forend with Arca built in but the MC has those as an aftermarket upgrade to.Guess I got up sold on an axsr at mhsa
The safety would be the only real difference for me as I like the grip of the MC and my AT
What was #1 runningAXSR must be a bit better
Fourth place team was running an AXMC
