    Nice truck! Its a great color, I'm sure you'll learn to love it.

    Personally, I'd save the tire/wheel upgrade once your stock tires are shot. Drive it, have fun w/ it, and after a few weeks, see what you'd like in/on the truck that it doesnt have yet. That should be your first mod :)

    Very nice!!!;) What kind of accessories do you want to see on your truck? TW pretty much has everything you are looking for picture wise. If not, someone will point you in the right direction. But just tell us what you want to see on a Tacoma and we will find it on here somewhere!!:D
