These mods continue at the front axle with custom fabricated suspension components that allows more steering angle-very important for drifting. The truck has also been lowered quite substantially via adjustable coilovers at all four corners. This allows DeBerti to run ultra-sticky BF Goodrich Rival tires at all four corners with no issues. Out the back, it’s hard to miss the massive wing along with the wide-body kit that flanks all four fender wells. While the powertrain is the obvious meat and potatoes of the truck, the body kit and suspension setup are equally impressive.

The truck also annihilates tires-especially with Brad behind the wheel. At full throttle, it sounds almost feral, like an angry wild animal. Few can match the unadulterated shock and awe of Brad Deberti’s Toyota Tacoma drift truck (a.k.a “The Performance Truck”) complete with a Toyota NASCAR V8 that revs to 10,000 rpm. Even at a time when EVs are red hot in popularity, it’s difficult to not appreciate the sonorous exhaust note of a tuned V8.
