    Hi, I've just bought my first truck, a 2011 SR5 4X4. It's my first new vehicle, and I've just been browsing the site, getting ideas for mods.

    I have absolutely no experience with working on cars, so I hope to attend a few of these mod days I've been hearing about, just to get to see some work first-hand. The extent of my experience in "working on stuff" culminates with computers and household projects. I hope to add basic vehicle modification to that list soon. It would be nice to know how to install a new sound system myself, and maybe pick up a few other skills along the way.
