    What's up guys, I don't have a Tacoma but I'm thinking about getting one soon if I decide to sell my 1990 300zx Twin Turbo. There's been Tacoma's in my family my whole life so they interest me a lot. :) They are also just full on kick ass trucks. I would love to have a second gen V6, 4x4, 4 door to make into a beast lol. I decided to join because I love looking at what different people do to there trucks.

    haha thanks guys, I'm actually 19 so pretty close. Yah I'm really thinking of getting one, I'm a novice mechanic so I'm pretty good at working on my own cars. I want something alittle more practical then a sports car going into college and also something to haul stuff and put people into if i need to. college and boxing takes a good amount of funds that i can't really keep up on my z either...
    tacomas are the best all around trucks imo

    eh the z is fast and all but it needs some upgrading and its kind of a pain to keep it up...
    id rather buy a truck, soup that thing up mechanically and cosmetically then build a z from the ground up after i get enough cash and make it the way i want lol

    kinda late. but welcome. and nice clean 300zx. we have a 91 i think. midnight blue. not the twin turbo tho. but it’s been sitting for few years. needs a little work, and i don’t have the space to work on it. or what it needs. may try and learn so i can make it a dragon slayer. i’m about 45 min from the tail of the dragon, and it’s not much fun in the taco.
