- This week on Dirt Lifestyle we are finally doing a walk around on my friend Mike's one of a kind 3rd gen Taco! He has turned this little truck into the slowest Taco in the world making it effortless to crawl everything in it's path! Together we talk about all the mods he has done and what makes this such a one of a kind truck. 580:1, independent front suspension and 40" tall tires... what's not to love?
Here is Mike's build thread if you are interested đ

#toyotatacoma #4x4 #overland - Auta a dopravnĂ prostĆedky
Spending a week with Mike @slowesttacoma gave me alot of confidence in this platform. We beat up our tacos for the last 8 days in Utah and now he is driving home to Fresno and I'm my way back to Washington... with no trailers! That's a new concept for me because as many of you know I trailer everything else but the gladiator. I hope you enjoy this behind the scenes look at Mike's passion for these trucks. Thank you for watching đ
I saw yâall on 84 nw in Idaho !your yota looks sick !! Drive safe.
I love this taco
I have to say I really love the video. I really liked how it was filmed just sitting there by campfire telling us about his rig and the shots of this Toyota on the trail.
Thank you so much đ I actually shot this a few different ways because I wasn't happy with the first walk around format we did. Glad to see you appreciate this style! Would you like to see more videos like this?
@@DirtLifestyle It was really well done, and I noticed I never once heard your voice asking him anything. but he did such a good job getting the point across, it wasnt really needed.
@@FlawedOffroad good point. It really shows quality of the video.
@@DirtLifestyle Enjoyed the way you filmed everything and edited it together very relaxing vibe
@@DirtLifestyle absolutely!!!
Thereâs so many Tacoma people (like me) who are scared to start cutting into and heavily modifying a truck that just put a $40k+ dent in the wallet.
This white MC Tacoma and Nateâs are definitely the coolest 3rd gens Iâve seen.
Iâm glad that you guys have the guts to go hammer on these expensive new trucks because itâs really cool to see just how capable they can become.
Love all the content Nate, especially the Tacoma stuff, keep it up brother! đ€đ»
You gotta be into wheelin, if your scared to cut then your scared to go big
Itâs nice to see a nicely built Tacoma. Iâm so tired of seeing those Soft Roader Overland Tacoma builds that just carry too much crap
Lol you sound like me. Not enough innovation with this platform. Mike is pretty much the only one making an effort to maximize these trucks.
@@DirtLifestyle and now nate pickle too đđœ
Most people donât go off-road. My Chevy ZR2 sees light trails & is built for road trips. Iâll smoke this Japanese truck in most settings, short of rock crawling. Nobody cares, because itâs all about individual use. If I wanted a rock crawler, then Iâd get a FORD đșđž Bronco or Jeep đșđžđźđčđ«đ·Rubicon. I sure as heck wouldnât give more market share to Japan.
@@krasnaludek298 your trying to make a point , but come off as a arrogant and ignorant.Congrats your âthat guyâ
For real , i thought i was the only one that thought that way. Im not a hater in any way ,but its overkill with all the weight they add
Nate,
Your talent seems to be limitless on and off the trail as a Fabricator, Videographer, and family man. Hats off to you, Mike, and the entire Marlin Crawler âfamily/staffâ as they truly embody the spirit of quality in a form follows function approach to crawling. Good luck on the trailsđđŸ
Hey man, I'm honored to have folks of your caliber watching my channel. This is very thoughtful and positive feedback and I very much appreciate it đ
I really enjoyed the format of this one. Builds are cool, but the stories that spawn the builds are too.
Outstanding breakdown of Big Mike's build. This is what wheelers do after a trail run. Sit by the campfire and talk about the obstacles on the trail, and the mods done to their rigs, The hard work and engineering back at the garage pays off, and the camaraderie of sharing the whole experience with your buddies is priceless. Well done!
580:1??? That triple reducer alone could have been an 11 min video, good god.
Lol for sure
The best thing about all the gearing you can match the winch speed with tire speed in the worst of the worst recoverys.
You should see Big Mikes video of this 2016 in 580 slow doing the worlds slowest burnout resting against a curb lol
Love how you cut this video together. The video did a great job of showcasing the truck and Mikeâs passion for his off-road toy without being the standard walk around pointing at parts. Super cool taco and an amazing video.
Man this truck has came a long way from when I first started following him on instagram
He has done a great job đ
Great to hear Big Mike's build story! It's been a joy to see him continue the legacy of his dad and push things farther then most of us could imagine with these modern platforms. Would be cool to see an interview with Marlin himself if he is up for it!
Thanks Nate and Big Mike.
Nate really does make the best build or âwalk aroundâ videos. This one is no exception. Look up his video for Marvinâs Jeepster build if you havenât watched it yet.
My first and only comment on any platform! As I consider Marlin, Christine, and Mike family. This video put a lump in my throat. I love your channel and your content. But your commitment to family, quality, and one off rigs is refreshing! Way to go Nate! đ
These types of storyteller episodes are really awesome you should definitely consider doing more of these throughout the year. Great job as always
Feel free to do more videos like this, just campfire talk with b-roll. Nice to see other's rigs once in a while in an intimate "chat like" setting.
And Love the Taco.
Way back in the early '90, didn't Marlin figure out a way to make a ratio 0f 1154:1?
He even tried turning his truck frame into a compressed-air storage tank. That guy is Legend.
Awesome video, IMHO The Czajkowski"s are some of the first pioneers in the crawl world.
Your definitely our leader for us Tacoma owners!!!
Mike's a cool dude. Always try to get parts from him if they carry them đđș
I love them as a company. GREAT people
The forced articulation with hydraulic cylinders is a cool idea!
I saw yâall on 84 nw in Idaho today your yota looks sick !! Keep up the great work !
what a beautiful set up for the monologue . the setting .
Wow, that air suspsension looks insane.
This video gave me chills. Awesome job
Dude I have been waiting for this interview and explanation for so long! Keep up the good work Nate!
Cool to hear him talk about his build, I remember reading his build thread and seeing how he bobbed the bed. I would have liked to hear about the bobbed bed because that's pretty unique on 3rd gens. I'd rather watch a video on something like this that goes out and beats trails every day than some SEMA special full of flashy gadgets.
Great video Nate. Mikes story on the build is good and the way you edited all together is great. This is the modern day âbuild threadâ
That rig sounds great Mike!!! Enjoy getting lost with itđđ»đđ»
Love campfire stories.đBeautiful taco.
Waiting on my RCLT HD for my TRD Pro 4 Runner now... starting with 37's ...but the goal is 40's !
I canât wait to get my kit.
Wow.. this might be the best rig walk around I've ever seen! editing, footage, and background musicđ
oh and what a rad truck!
My first vehicle I owned what is a 99 Tacoma Access cab. Four-cylinder five-speed and that truck was awesome
Nice to hear someone else prefers manual trans.
Yesss!
Yup
My biggest regret on my Tacoma is not buying one with a Manual...
@@DirtLifestyle I feel it's almost sacrilege to sell a Tacoma with an auto trans... đ
Thanks for sharing this with us Nate.
Sweet video. I wish it was longer. Same with your building shop videos.
Love this video! Your two Tacomas are my favorite. Great story too really enjoyed that
Now that is a pretty sweet truck!!
I really like that you have been doing something with the IFS. Mike has done what nobody else will do and that is prove that IFS can work. I remember when ultimate off road adventure took a first gen ford f150 with a ecoboost and custom built a IFS for it. For this event they always run 40's. They beat the piss out of the front end. There take away is ultimately there was no real huge difference between solid and IFS. It would be more personal. After that my view changed on IFS. Ford has proven with the Raptor that IFS won't fall apart. As you mentioned about the level of ground clearance you can attain shows that with somebody like thinking out side the box there is lots of room to work. There is in Canada some older videos on youtube of an aluminum tubbed FJ45 with 46's running 4 wheel independent suspension in the snow.
Love the ifsâŠ
Me too! I have built and wheeled many different makes and models of vehicles. Nothing can compare to the long travel IFS on my taco. The handling and steering characteristics on and off roand off road are 2nd to none none. Not to mention the unbelievable ground clearance.
@@DUNEATV đŠđŠđŠđŠđŠ
@@DUNEATV Exactly! Solid axle swap it!
That is my dream truck to the smallest detail. I like older ones because the wheeling abilities but new ones have grown on me but omg Iâm super jealous
Awesome truck man!! Wish dirt lifestyle would show case my 2010 Tacoma TRD off-road D-4D diesel!! đđ
I love this autobiography style video around the camp fire đ„ đ
Winches are for getting stuck... I guess Mike has never got stuck with his taco! Good wheeling!
Watching this definitely makes me miss my 82 Toyota and my 2019 tacoma. Both did amazing off and on road. My only complaint with the trucks was fuel economy, but at the end of the day who cares when youâre running 37s. I knew the clearance problem was going to be talked about lol.
Love my Taco, love yours more. Time and money it will get there. Thanks
Wow, that was unexpectedly cool video!
I love these cinematography pieces you make just so awesome
Not into this build at all, but this was super interesting! Thanks for sharing Nate
Amazing interview!
Wow what a truck
Love my Tacoma and love your channel
Thank you!
That truck is so dope. Me want!
Thanks for another entertaining video, so stoked you went with Mikeâs RCLT system both of your trucks are insane, now you need a Tacoboxđ€đœ
Super cool rig and great guy. Great video
This rig is sick
Awesome build! I've seen this truck in action and it's truly on another level.
Thanks đđ
That a badass Tacoma see it all the time around town and his coworker have a double cab with 37 tooâŠbeast Tacoma guys
awesome video! would be amazing to see a walk around of his dads legendary red yoder
Watching from Australia and this thing is just so cool. We would have to trailer your rock crawlers everywhere as our modification laws are so stringent weâd never get away with driving them on the street never mind daily driving on 40sđđ
What a great talk. đ
I just wish I could make my 83 look like Mike's :)
Thanks for showing us another great truck.. this one seems the business !
Great video as always Nate!
Thank you!
Hell yeah... nicely done!
Awesome rig
Nice work on this video Nate
Man thatâs an amazing truck!!!
Such a beautiful episode! Thanks Nate and Mike for sharing with us!
Fantastic video!
Thatâs a cool build.
Amazing build
Not only a great story, but a great story teller!
Really cool video, thanks
My man! Waited a year for my manual.
Thanks @dirtlifestyle for doing this video. I followed Mike closely when he was designing the RCLT, sou know the story, but really wish there was more footage of the truck in use, and you provided it! Thank you!
Sweet video manđ€đŒ
Great walk around impressive editing
Awesome video! Love this!
Nice to see someone do this with a Tacoma.
We ran into you guys at the top of devils crack on the rim you can see our white jeeps in there. Super neat truck! Awesome chatting with Mike.
I just caught video of a Taco on 40s with some of those same parts here in CO!!!!! It was an auto 2018!!!!!!
Iâm trying to make my 3rd gen like mikes 3rd gen. I got a half cab to buy with a 4 banger
That's an awesome Rig! Love the suspension setup that you can suck either side down or push it up is amazing I bet angles don't matter as much.
Great, great video! Would love to see more like this. Also when is the how to make a simple loop in your winch rope video coming out? đ
This is DL's best video ever.
"I cant rock crawl an auto,its just not in my blood" Love it! Love the channel content!
The 3rd Gen Tacomas look so good. Iâm not really sold on the 4th gen ones. I love my Tacoma and canât wait to put a lift on mine and start hitting some trails. I donât plan on pushing my truck nearly as far as yâall do but itâs cool to see how much you can do with these trucks even if they arenât the perfect setup like a gladiator or the other jeeps
nice truck but man was it funny to hear this guy go on and on about just getting the truck like it was his kid or something. never change tacoma bros, never change.
2:46 LMFAO! Died laughing!
I thought i went low at 6.8 to 1, but I didnât put 4 transfer cases on my jeep. Just when you thought it couldnât get any lower!
Sweet ride
Does this guy have a CZcams channel?!
Yes marlin crawler media, heâs one coolest guy I seen on CZcams!
Fresno!!!! Woot Woot!! sick rig man! goals!
Very Nice!
i really like this guy
Epic truck and an inspiring story. Well done man đ€
Sweet ride.
Sick ass build
