    Hey everybody I am retiring my old 02 blazer and have said my fair wells to the friendly people at blazerforum who have saved my life many times over the years but I just bought my new 2012 Tacoma I've been saving for a while and finally pulled the trigger i got the double cab TRD manual short box in metallic grey and I'm from Canada so I opted for the trail teams sport package, the truck won't get to my dealership for a month but it's on the way I'm pretty nervous; first time having a brand new vehicle because I've always been able to fix my own older trucks.... 1989 4runner, 1992 S10, and my 2002 blazer so I will be relying on warrantee until I familiarize myself with all the new stuff on these toys
    I'm an all around outdoor enthusiast climbing kayaking downhill biking and I'm about ready for a truck that I don't need to worry about popping the hood or bringing spare parts on every excursion I look forward to seeking the expertise of the members of this forum!

    Thanks!
