It wasn't always turbo

I couldn't handle the auto tranny, so I got a non turbo and put turbo guts in it. No digital dash, but i'll take 5 gears and a clutch over a cluster from Back to the Future any day.

Nice trucks though guys!

Here's my toy. I still have to go get a custom bumper made to cover up the fmic and house a winch. It should be pretty cool looking though with a tube bumper around the intercooler.

I also have a factory Turbo pickup. (For sale actually) It's totally stock though.

Yes I like the Turbos

Everything in the cluster from the Delorean was mechanical except for the speedometer on top of the dash wasn't it? But hell, mc fly's truck in the end was awesome.

Yeah your probably right.. The digital cluster is just very 1980's/Where's my hoverboard/Flux Capacitorish to me. To each their own though.

That truck was sweet! Any one remember exactly what it was? I know it was Black and 4x4. I haven't seen that movie in ages.

Hmm.. I wonder if that's what started my affection for Black Toyota 4x4's?

When my brother first saw my truck that was the first thing he said. "Its just like in Back to the Future. That was my dream truck."
