    Dealer finally found me my truck! Picked it up yesterday, and super thankful to Dick Dyer Toyota in Columbia, SC... They got it, have me by far the best deal on it and we're awesome to work with.

    2012 TRD Sport DCLB 4x4 in MGM, with Entune. So far I love it. I gotta say, I was Leary of spending the $$ on Entune, but I'm a guy that likes lots of buttons (haha Jk) so I bought it. The sound for stock is the best I've heard. I've bought new Chevys with Bose and this system is way better. Truck drives like a dream.

    I'll get pics when I'm at my laptop. Got an appt tomorrow to get it tinted all the way around and then the mods will start coming in!!! This is my first Tacoma, so I'm stoked.

    Tacomas are awsome. I love mine. But, they will burn a hole in your wallet. Congrats on the new truck.

    Enjoy your new ride. I've had mine almost 2 months. You are right about the sound system. The JBL with the subwoofer behind the back seat is awesome.

    Congrats on the new Tacoma. I'm hoping to jump on a 2013 sometime next year, once I save up the cash. Not sure about the Entune system, though. I'm a BlackBerry guy, and Entune doesn't seem to cater to them.

    Here's a pic of it. Went and had the windows tinted, 20% on all sides and back. I know that's a tad more than your supposed to have on the drivers and passengers sides.....but I like it:D

    More, oh man, many more mods to come. Loving it though

    Looks great! I'm planning to get my tint done after purchase, as well. I don't like the factory installed stuff, since they don't do the driver/front pass. windows.

    Tacoma is stock and staying that way, Pickup is TBA as of now.
    First time I have heard someone say something positive about the factory sound system, I hate the one in my 2011, but it will be getting fixed someday when I can afford a real stereo and speakers. Most songs I play from my iPod I have to have on max volume just to hear them. It could just be my iPod, but I really doubt it because it works fine in other cars I use it in.
    Anyway, congrats on the new ride and welcome to the greatest Tacoma site on the net!

    It was almost 2k less than any dealer I talked to. And, I talked to over 30 dealers from NC,SC,GA & TN and more..... So I felt good about the price I paid for all the stuff I got. 31k and change.

    I haven't heard the same reviews from all Tacomas. I can just say the JBL System in the Entune equipped trucks is pretty dang good for stock. I'm no music guru but this this kills any system I've ever had in 4 different new vehicles I've bought in my life.
