    Not the cheapest, not the most expensive. These guys abuse a Tacoma as they test ride various mid-budget level shocks. It's a long video but it's comical and they make it fun. Worth a watch if you're shopping for new shocks or just curious where yours rate.

    Thanks for posting that. I had watched the budget level vid they produced and saw the mid level over on the side but then couldn't find it again when I was looking for it. I found them interesting with some caveats:
    1) For me, I just don't wheel that way. I would like to see how slow crawling would go.
    2) A leaf sprung Tacoma is going to be rather different from our coil/link rear ends.
    3) I would like if they showed how each set up affects overall travel as compared to stock.

    I feel the same way about their testing. The Southeast is very different than where they’re going so that invalidates the results for a lot of people.
